Meal Preparation
Our amazing team can be there for our clients at any mealtime of the day. Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner. They will ensure that with the right encouragement, our clients eat healthily and regularly. They can involve our client where possible with simple preparation or decision making. If necessary, we can cook from scratch and provide a healthy hot meal using provided food from the fridge. If our clients are unable to help prepare, our friendly team will still include them in any decision making throughout. Let us support you!
Appointments and Prescription Collections
Our trusted team are insured to take our clients to any appointments they may have. This could include the dentist, doctor, bank, or hospital. We will not only escort them to an appointment, if they wish, we are able to stay with them all the way through, to keep our client safe and offer further assistance where needed. We are also able to pick up prescriptions and deliver them when visiting, or we can make a special journey if it is urgent. If a family member usually helps our clients with either of the above, it means that we can step in to support so that they do not have to miss work or change their plans. We take the stress out of meeting any important appointments. We are here for you!
Shopping
We offer a fantastic shopping service where we can either escort our clients to the shops and be available to offer assistance where needed, or we can simply follow a provided shopping list to then go shopping on our clients behalf. It is important to note that for some of our clients with Dementia or Alzheimer’s we offer further support working alongside their family, where we will make sure that all essentials and necessary items are bought for them. We will always do this keeping them involved in any decision making as we would any of our clients.
Basic Gardening
As you get older, bending and crouching down can get harder and more dangerous for you. However, you may be extremely green fingered and have a lot of pride in your garden. Here at Any Little Thing Ltd we have green fingered members of our team too. We can support our clients keeping them safe, by communicating with them what they would like us to tidy in their garden. We involve our clients every step of the way. We can carry out weeding, tidying beds or planting new plants. Just because you may not be able to tend to your garden, does not mean you cannot be involved with improving it where you wish. We will follow guidance and ensure that we are assisting and supporting our client to keep their garden looking how the want it. This takes the pressure from family members at the weekend, allowing you to spend quality time together.
NB; If there are any bigger jobs that we are unable to tackle, we work alongside a reliable and trustworthy landscaper – EJB Landscaping Services.
Dog Walking and feeding pets
Dogs can be great companions for some of our clients, however walking the dog can be somewhat difficult. We can support them and their furry friends by taking their dog for a walk, we can also assist with any visits to the vet or can work alongside our client to ensure that their pet is fed and watered. It could be that daily visits to help with all of these tasks are necessary, we can help by stepping in where needed, so that family members do not have to.
Cleaning and Household Chores
Our professional and trustworthy team are there to support our clients with any cleaning and household chores. We assist in enabling them to be as independent as possible, living in their own home. Our staff are provided with their own cleaning kit, there is no need for you to supply any products. While we are with our clients, we can also carry out chores like changing the bed, organising washing, or doing the ironing, maybe walking the dog?
We will always endeavour to assign a consistent staff member to you so that you can build a relationship with them. We are a support structure for our client helping to maintain a clean and tidy house, so that they can spend quality time with their family members at the weekend.
