Life Without Limits
We don’t believe in limitations, which is why the people we support never feel life limited. With Homecare Scotland’s intervention, living at home is the normal expectation, which isn’t restricted to any specific boundaries. Wherever possible, we aim to keep life ambitions alive by supporting and encouraging a whole host of every day, seasonal and exceptional experiences such as:
social outings to clubs, pubs, sporting events, cinema and theatre
wellbeing – swimming pool, spa, massage / reflexology
shopping trips
visiting family and friends
holidays – home and abroad
Our Approach
Our care teams derive their energy from the people we support’s zest for life and this drives them to convert “wish lists” into real experiences, while meticulously managing the risks involved. If our approach sounds appropriate for your needs, contact us to arrange a face-to-face meeting in your own home and we will be delighted to elaborate.
Homecare Scotland meticulously screen and select our carers, as much for their positive dispositions as their experience and qualifications. But, you and your family will have the final say on who makes it onto your care team.
Homecare Scotland are also a real living wage provider ensuring our care givers are enabled to live well and concentrate on supporting you the people we support.
