Care Services from Greenbanks Homecare

At Greenbanks our homecare services come in many different forms but they have one thing in common – they are all designed to help you continue living independently at home or return to your own home after illness.

We will listen to what you tell us about the help you need; then we will work with you on a plan that ensures you get the most out of life.

Greenbanks has very high professional standards. We train our care assistants well, making sure they will make you feel safe and will respect your privacy at all times. We listen to what you say about us and welcome your feedback on how we can improve our service even more.

You can benefit from Greenbanks care for just a few hours a week, daily from early morning to late at night, or you can choose 24-hour care.

Greenbanks Home Care

Our home helps and care assistants support you at times in your life when you need help getting the most important tasks done – getting up and about in the morning, having a good, nutritious meal, and getting the laundry done. If you would welcome some extra help in the home, it’s time to get in touch with Greenbanks Homecare.

You might be coming home from hospital in need of a helping hand for a short period while you get back on your feet and in control again.

Or perhaps you would like support out and about, someone to accompany you shopping or to college, or appointments – it all depends on your lifestyle and the type of help you need.

You might be elderly, frail and vulnerable, disabled by physical, hearing or sight difficulties, or a parent of a disabled child. No matter what your cultural background, our home helps can care for you efficiently and sympathetically, so talk to Greenbanks and find out how.

Greenbanks Live-In Care

Greenbanks live-in carers offer an alternative solution when a residential nursing home seems the only way forward. Our 24-hour care is a way for you to remain at home in your own, familiar surroundings. You can have one, or even two live-in carers staying with you in your home to keep house and take care of you.

Greenbanks Homecare is a private home care service helping with all the tasks and support listed below – you may need our help with just one or a combination of several tasks. We provide a flexible service. Our Care Managers will listen to what you want and help you get the best value for money.

Live-In care – from short-term respite to long-term support offering any combination of our home care services below.

Personal Care – our care assistants will help you look after your personal needs – getting up, going to bed, dressing, washing, having a bath, using the toilet, personal hygiene, eating and drinking.

Day-to-day domestic help – carrying out small jobs such as washing up and laundry.

Extra domestic help – we can arrange more comprehensive support such as cleaning rooms and windows, and ironing. If necessary, we can undertake a deep clean of your home.

Medication assistance – our care assistants can remind you to take your medicine and can administer oral medication if you so desire (restrictions apply – ask us).

Shopping – our home helps will do your shopping and go on errands such as collecting your benefits, pensions or prescriptions.

Meal preparation – our standard homecare plans usually include making sandwiches and light meals like soup. We can also prepare home-made hot meals for you – we simply need to allow our care assistants more time.

Supported living – our support includes getting you out and about to college, bingo, local groups or other social activities you might enjoy.

Companionship and social care – Greenbanks care assistants can accompany you to social activities or your day centre and spend time with you, helping you to learn new skills or how to get a particular task done.

Sitting services – you might need one of our care assistants to stay with you while the person who normally looks after you has a short break.
