Could Eidyn Care be your solution for supported li (2017-02-14)
It’s no secret that the country’s social care system is struggling under steadily-rising costs and demands. We are fortunate enough to benefit from progressing advances in medicine, science and technology that continue to both push up our life expectancy in the face of the rigours of old age, and to help us survive life-limiting conditions well beyond what would have once been. Yet because we are living longer and surviving better, a greater proportion of the population has need of skilled, supportive caregivers and services to help us continue with fulfilling and enjoyable lives. The government has admitted it is struggling with rising demand and has no final answer to the problem, while the pressure on hospitals and the social care system has reached the point where families are asked to take over caregiving duties so that patients can be sent home earlier.
However, before you despair, it’s well worth looking at the range of private home care services available. Staying at home with a life-limiting condition doesn’t mean we have to be bereft of the caregiving we need to grant us dignity and comfort. Indeed, most of us would probably far prefer to continue our lives at home rather than in a hospital or social care centre, as long as we could count on getting the quality of service needed! Fortunately, such support does exist, such as Eidyn Care’s Specialist Palliative Care Service, letting clients enjoy expert caregiving without placing demands on family members.
Eidyn Care provides supported living services for the Edinburgh region. With their home support service, you can benefit from the full range of discreet caregiving services that you need – they provide gentle awakening and assistance with preparing so that you can face each day with everything you need; assistance with food preparation and help with medications to ensure you’re healthy; companionship and empathy, which everyone with a life-limiting condition can really benefit from; and other helpful services such as light housework, running errands and other activities to make your life easier.
