Home Care in Thornton-Cleveleys
“Dear Carers,
I wanted to say thank you so very much for all the care and attention that you gave my mum (and her dog too!). Mum remained in her own home to the end as she wished. This was only possible because you all helped me care for her. Thank you.”
All About You provides home care in Thornton-Cleveleys for older people, adults with disabilities and anyone who needs a bit of extra help to stay living at home. Our office is only a few miles down the road in Poulton Le Fylde, with carers working across Thornton, Cleveleys and the rest of Wyre.
A lot of families who contact us have started out looking at residential care homes in Thornton-Cleveleys. A care home is the right answer for some people. For many others, the right help at home means they can stay put, keep their own routine and hold on to the independence they value. If you are weighing up the two, we are happy to talk it through honestly.
Care at Home in Thornton-Cleveleys
Every care plan starts with a home visit from one of our experienced managers. We want to hear how your day normally goes, what has become difficult and what you would rather keep doing yourself. The visits are then arranged around that, not the other way round.
Here at All About You we believe everyone, whatever their age or ability, should stay in charge of their own life. You decide what help you want and when, and you can change your mind at any time.
What We Can Support With
The help we offer includes:
Personal Care
Washing, showering, dressing, shaving, continence care and help moving around the house safely. Our personal care at home is done at a pace that suits you, by carers who respect your privacy.
Home Help
Hoovering, dusting, washing and ironing, changing the beds, the weekly shop and a hot meal when you want one. Our home help can be a one-off or a regular booking.
Companionship and Welfare Checks
Our companionship care is about good company: a natter over a brew, a stroll along the promenade or someone to go with you to the doctor’s. Our elderly welfare checks are shorter visits to make sure all is well, which many families find reassuring if they live some distance away.
Reablement
Home from hospital after a fall or an illness? Our reablement care helps you get back on your feet over a few weeks, so you can return to your normal routine.
Dementia Care
Our dementia care at home is built on familiarity. The same carers, the same times of day and a calm, patient approach can make a big difference to how settled someone feels.
Palliative and End of Life Care
Our palliative care services support people who want to spend their last weeks and months in their own home, working alongside the family and other healthcare professionals.
Learning Disability Support
Our learning disability care supports adults to live as independently as possible, from everyday routines and personal care to getting out into the community and supported living.
Familiar Faces Matter
We try hard to keep the same carers visiting the same people. It sounds simple, but being looked after by people you know and trust matters enormously.
Mrs L from Thornton-Cleveleys had been cared for by us before she broke her hip. When she left hospital, a different provider took over, and she and her family were unhappy with the change. At the family’s request, the NHS asked us to take her care back. We worked with them to agree the funding, and her familiar carers returned with four visits a day to look after her at the end of her life. You can read Mrs L’s story here.
Paying for Care
We provide care that people pay for themselves, care arranged by Lancashire County Council, and care funded by the NHS through Continuing Healthcare. Our page on home care funding explains the options, and we are always happy to answer questions over the phone.
