Help in the Home

Homecare for Independent Living

At Greenbanks Homecare we understand how much it means to you to remain as independent as possible in your own home. If you need help and support with personal tasks like washing and cooking our homecare services are on hand to provide personal care.

As a private homecare company, we have lots of other home care services that could make your day-to-day life easier and more enjoyable.

Companionship and social care– Greenbanks care assistants can accompany you to social activities or your day centre. We can spend time with you, helping you to learn new skills or how to get a particular task done. These types of homecare services are called Supported Living.

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.

Transport/drivers– we provide transport and drivers taking you to hospital or other appointments or on visits to friends and relatives.

Gardening – our team will do light gardening jobs like cutting the grass and weeding.

Domestic help– our care in the home includes cleaning the house, washing up, doing the laundry and ironing. If necessary we can also arrange to undertake a deep clean of your home.

Shopping– we 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.

Hairdressing– some of our home care team are qualified hairdressers providing a range of hairdressing services in your own home.

Some of our homecare services are dependent on the availability of suitable staff in your area.
