What is Home Help and Companionship Care?

Life can get a bit lonely as you get older. Going out and meeting friends can become a struggle, and often we need more help than we can get from our children or loved ones. That is where having a companion is a great solution.

A companion or home help carer can support you with your everyday tasks. For example, do you want to go to the theatre, go shopping or go for a lovely walk? Would you like someone to drive you to an appointment, help you cook healthy meals, or take you to a social event? Would you like the peace of mind knowing your loved one is being looked after?

safe and in their own home
• Building confidence and encourage
engagement with the world

Mobility Care At Home

Mobility issues are the most common disability, accounting for 57% of all disabilities and are particularly prevalent within the older population.

At Gran Care, we understand how effective mobility care can transform a client’s life.

The reduced ability to move round can lead to unsteadiness while walking, difficulty getting in and out of chairs, or increase the risk of falls, as well as reducing the overall quality of life. Lots of different factors can reduce mobility - from muscle weakness, joint problems, pain, disease, and neurological problems, sometimes, it can even be caused by a combination of several mild problems.
