Seeking recommendation for carer agency


Marjoram

Recommended Posts

My husband and I are in our early 70s, and have no family living nearby. Recently, for the first time ever, we found ourselves ill at the same time, and things got a bit desperate re food shopping and preparation, and general errands and visiting the one of us who was in hospital for part of the time. We don't ever want to be in that situation again, so I am wondering if anyone could recommend a carer agency whom we could call on at times like this. We are normally fine, i hasten to add, so the sort of help I am thinking of would always be short-term, at short notice and not live-in. Many thanks in advance.

Mine was weekly for 3 months, It is surprising what you can observe during that one hour. I continued to use my observational skills throughout my 21 year professional career, After I retired, I returned to University and trained as a Practice Educator and went on to have 5 students and encouraged them not just to listen but to observe their 'clients 'body languages/ environment/ relationships with others. I would urge parents/caregivers to participate - you will be surprised how much more you will understand about your child and their development,

    • @Gingergossip In deed a bit of a joker, totally tongue in cheek, got me and others, well done (check their profile out).   But unfortunately there is a bit of Alf Garnett here, where Warren Mitchell in As Death as Do Part, would say the most outrageous and offensive things.  Effectively mocking and calling out some nasty right wing beliefs.  But sadly some with those beliefs thought he was being serious, As we can see on this thread.
