What does Personal Care include?

Examples of personal care include bathing, oral care, toileting, dressing and undressing. Some will need more assistance than others, but we have everything covered at RCB Home Care.

Can I have different levels of support?

Yes, we will always encourage independence; most individuals can complete some of their personal care needs, whilst others will need full support. All levels of support will be discussed at the initial assessment and regular review of care, which helps maintain the correct level of support required.

Do I have to have a visit every day?

No, this is entirely up to the person receiving care; support can be given several times a day or just once a week for a shower, as they can manage the rest of the week themselves.

Can I request male or female staff to assist me?

Yes, person-centred care is there to support the individual with their needs and wishes. RCB Home Care will accommodate all requests.

Are staff able to use mobility aids confidently?

RCB Health Care Assistants receive theory and practical training to support individuals who use mobility aids, such as hoists and standing aids. This is followed up with yearly training and ongoing support in the community.
