warmth that they deserve. We are able to provide a caregiver on a permanent, part time, or on call basis to wherever you are in the greater London area. In addition to our in home caregivers, we

Working with Alzheimer’s
Hearing that a parent or loved one has been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease is devastating. Despite the heartbreak, however, there are decisions that need to be taken swiftly regarding the
care of the loved one whose mental faculties are being negatively impacted. And there are various factors that may affect this decision. For instance, for Londoners who work and have children,
learning a parent or significant other has Alzheimer’s further complicates the already complicated act of balancing career and family. Then there are families that are separated by distance, and
for whom relocating to London is not a viable option.
Whatever the case may be, having a live in caretaker is definitely the best course of action. After all, for individuals suffering from Alzheimer’s being familiar with their surroundings is key,
and when they can rely on one of our team to help them with outings and other day-to-day routines they can avoid much of the emotional trauma that arises when dementia makes doing these tasks far
too difficult. What's more, with a live in care agency the stress of dealing with Alzheimer's in the family is somewhat relieved.
People with Alzheimer's have special needs. Our staff have the necessary skills required to care for your loved one adequately and compassionately.
Personalized Bath and Hygiene Services
As the live in care agency London has come to trust, we have been privy to many of the hardships experienced and obstacles faced by those who have had to care for a spouse, parent, or loved one.
Here are just a few examples of the grievances that are often voiced to us:
"I have to do everything for my husband now that he's bed ridden. However, it's becoming nearly impossible to bathe him because he's a bigger man. I simply can't do it!"
"My sister and I are all that my dad has. We do the best we can to help him, but bathroom time is especially hard. It's really difficult and embarrassing for both him and us"
Yes, it seems that bathing and the bathroom are a great source of consternation for both the caregivers and those they care for. We can help you. We offer a complete bath and hygiene service that
not only includes help with bathing and going to the toilet, but also includes changing clothes, changing the bedding, fixing the cared for hair, tooth brushing and oral hygiene, shaving, and
other necessities that any person needs to feel dignified.
Art Therapy
Anyone who is in a position where they need to be cared for needs activities that keep them mentally stimulated and offer a much needed emotional release. One innovative concept that we employ is
art therapy. Our care providers have received training in how to best facilitate this therapy, and we have found that it is quite effective in calming, relaxing, and elevating the mood of those
in our care.
Our care providers are able to unobtrusively guide those in their care through different arts activities that may include magazine collages, mandalas, free form drawing, indoor landscape, and
many others that allow a person to express their emotions and release tension, anxiety and stress. The objective of the entire art therapy process is to bring about moments of relaxation,
exercise hand eye coordination, and to arouse a person's 'internal resources' (the tools a person uses in order to be able to deal with various situations).
Even if the person in our care has no artistic background, we still find that they are very pleased with the image they produce. This in and of itself produces a sense of satisfaction, regardless
of the deep psychological benefits of art therapy.
Art therapy also helps those in our care to switch their focus away from the illnesses and ailments that have in many ways come to define and dominate their lives. We have also found that it helps those in our care to open up and become more communicative, which in turn aides our caregivers in how to best treat and provide assistance.
