Personalised Care & Hygiene

Gentle, Respectful Support for Life’s Final Chapter

At Lighthouse Homecare, we believe that independence and dignity are central to well-being. Supporting these values can strengthen both physical and mental health, build confidence, and improve overall quality of life.

With great respect for each person’s comfort and preferences, our compassionate care professionals are dedicated to helping you or your loved one feel safe, clean, and cared for — right at home.

What Is Personalised Care & Hygiene?

Personalised care and hygiene are essential aspects of domiciliary care. This support helps individuals maintain their daily routines while upholding dignity, comfort, and wellbeing.

It includes assistance with tasks such as bathing, toileting, grooming, dressing, oral hygiene, feeding, positioning, and transferring. It may also involve meal preparation, laundry, bed changing, and medication support.

These tasks are delivered with compassion, empathy, and understanding — making each person feel respected and cared for.

By maintaining personal hygiene, we help prevent infections, support physical health, and reduce the risk of hospital readmissions or premature entry into residential care.

The Options for Personal Care

1. Personal care isn't one-size-fits-all. At Lighthouse Homecare, we offer flexible options tailored to each individual's unique needs — ensuring comfort, dignity, and continued independence.

In-Home Personal Care Services

1. Our trained carers provide personalised support right at home with daily tasks such as bathing, grooming, dressing, and meal preparation.

2. This approach keeps your loved ones in familiar surroundings while receiving the care they need — promoting both safety and peace of mind.

3. In-home care is adaptable and designed to meet varying levels of support, making it a practical and reassuring option for many families.

Personalised Care Plans

At Lighthouse Homecare, we understand that no two individuals are the same. That's why we build fully personalised care plans that reflect each person's unique needs, routines, and preferences.

Following an in-depth assessment, we collaborate with families to create a plan that adapts to real-life situations — from health conditions to lifestyle rhythms. Visits are scheduled strategically around peak need times, ensuring support is delivered exactly when it matters most.

Companionship Care

Beyond the essentials of personal care, emotional wellbeing plays a vital role in a person's quality of life. Our carers form genuine, trusting relationships with the people they support — often becoming a familiar, friendly presence in their day.

Whether it's a warm conversation, a shared game, or simply a walk around the garden, our companionship care reduces feelings of loneliness, encourages engagement, and helps nurture mental and emotional health.

Life changes — and so should care. Lighthouse Homecare offers flexible services that adjust alongside your loved one's evolving needs. Whether care is needed for just a few hours a week or on a 24/7 basis, we're equipped to scale our support accordingly.

This flexible approach allows individuals to remain in the comfort of their own home for longer, while still receiving the high-quality assistance they deserve. Independence is preserved, peace of mind is assured.
