When the elderly are in the twilight of their years, all that ask for is dignity and care. Kare Plan is a home help company in Dublin that allows them to enjoy a high quality of life within the comforts of their own home. They specialize in helping the elderly and the disabled, and provide a wide variety of services including personal care, home help, and live in care.
They are a family run Irish company and employ professionally trained and experienced staff to take care of clients. Kare Plan is a member of IPHCA. All employees are Garda checked, insured, and made to undergo a complete medical checkup before appointment. Their staff are not only supervised periodically, but also monitored through the telephone monitoring system. The customer service is on call 24 hours a day, and can hence help in the event of an emergency.
They help disabled and regualar clients by shopping for errands, provide companionship, night time care, assist with medication, help them with recreational activities, assist with personal care, take them for scheduled appointments etc. As for shopping with personal care, the job includes assisting with the six basic activities of daily living (incontinence care, walking, feeding, bathing, grooming, washing), light housework, meal preparation, and helping with hospital and surgery visits etc.
Increased standard of living has made it mandatory for both partners to work full time, thereby making it difficult for people to take care of parents and grandparents. Left with no option, the elderly manage their daily activities on their own, and hence prone to accidents. But elderly care services like Kare Plan, allow the elderly (and the disabled) to be at home within their own surroundings and in the comfort of their own bed. There are several studies to prove that with proper home care, it is possible to post pone the need for having to move to a nursing home.
"Through our services we ensure that the dignity, self respect, self esteem, and independence of the elderly and disabled aren't compromised. Simple actions like allowing them privacy when needed, moving into their field of vision, and taking the time to stop and listen to them, go a long way in making them happy," says a spokesperson at Kare Plan.
