Meal Support and Daily Care in Poulton-le-Fylde for Mrs S
Location: Poulton-le-FyldeFunding Type: Direct Payment
The Situation
Mrs S had never previously needed care and had been used to managing independently. However, after a period of illness and a hospital stay, she was discharged home with a care package from another provider.
Although support had been arranged, the care being delivered was not fully meeting the requirements set out in her care plan. In particular, meals were not being prepared as expected, which meant Mrs S was not receiving the regular food and nutrition she needed during her recovery.
As a result, her granddaughter began visiting every day to cook for her. While she was happy to help, this placed additional pressure on the family and created concern about whether Mrs S was being properly supported at home.
Mrs S needed a reliable care package that would help her eat well, rebuild her strength and feel more settled after her hospital stay.
Our Support
Mrs S’s granddaughter, who is a local nurse, contacted All About You after hearing positive feedback about our care services.
We introduced a three-visit-per-day care package, with support provided at key meal times throughout the day. This included breakfast, lunch and dinner, making sure Mrs S had regular meals prepared and the opportunity to choose food she enjoyed.
The care package was designed to give Mrs S the practical support she needed while helping her regain confidence at home. By focusing on consistent daily visits and proper mealtime support, we helped create a more reliable routine around her recovery and well-being.
This also meant her granddaughter no longer had to visit every day to prepare meals, giving the family reassurance that Mrs S was being looked after properly.
The Outcome
With three daily visits in place, Mrs S began eating well again. She was able to choose meals she enjoyed, helping make mealtimes more positive and encouraging her to eat regularly.
This had a clear impact on her recovery and overall well-being. With better support around food, routine and daily care, Mrs S felt more comfortable at home, and her family felt reassured that her needs were being met.
Her granddaughter no longer needed to attend daily to cook, which eased pressure on the family and allowed her visits to become less about essential care and more about spending quality time together.
The right care package helped Mrs S continue recovering at home with dignity, choice and dependable support.
