Personal care with independence
At Hygea Homecare, we possess a deep understanding of the delicate balance between the duties and the delicacies of providing personal care.
We understand the obligations associated with personal care.
As individuals, we hold dear our ability to safeguard our privacy and preserve our dignity while tending to our physical needs. However, as time passes and we age, managing personal care can become more challenging.
It is not just the physical aspects that require assistance but also the emotional aspect of allowing others to lend a hand.
That is why our dedicated team at Hygea understands the importance of personal care and recognises its profoundly personal nature. We continuously invest in training and development to ensure our caregivers approach each task empathetically and compassionately.
With Hygea by your side, personal care has a whole new meaning. Whether providing a comforting presence while you bathe or complex care multiple times a day, our team is here to support you in every way possible.
What does personal care involve?
Personal Hygiene and Grooming
Our caregivers assist with all aspects of personal hygiene, including bathing, grooming, dressing, and toileting. We understand the importance of maintaining personal dignity and respect during these intimate tasks.
Medication Reminders
We provide medication reminders to ensure your loved ones take their prescribed medications on time and in the correct dosages. This service can help prevent medication errors and avoid potential health complications.
Meal Preparation and Nutrition
Good nutrition is crucial for health and well-being. Our caregivers prepare healthy, balanced meals for each client’s dietary needs and preferences. They also assist with feeding if necessary.
Mobility Assistance
Our caregivers assist clients with mobility issues with walking, transferring from bed to chair, and preventing falls. We aim to promote independence while ensuring safety.
What other support can we provide?
Companionship Services
Social Interaction and Emotional Support
Isolation can lead to feelings of loneliness and depression. Our caregivers provide companionship, engage in conversation, and participate in recreational activities that keep your loved ones socially connected and emotionally supported.
Light Housekeeping
A clean and organised home environment contributes to overall well-being. Our caregivers assist with light housekeeping tasks such as laundry, dusting, vacuuming, and dishwashing.
Specialised Care Services
Dementia and Alzheimer’s Care

Post-Hospitalisation Care
After a hospital stay, many individuals require additional support at home. Our post-hospitalisation care services include wound care, medication management, physical therapy support, and care coordination with healthcare providers.
Continuity of care
A team of carers will be looking after you or your loved one.
We understand that having continuity is essential to you, so we always try and limit the number of care assistants allocated to your core care team wherever possible.
If you need anything, our team is always available. We’ll call or pop in to make sure that your care experience is everything it should be and answer any questions along the way!
