About Refreshing Care

Refreshing Care provides support at home to adults in Dagenham and across the borough of Barking and Dagenham. We visit older people who need help to carry on living in their own houses, adults living with dementia, people with physical disabilities and younger adults who need support to live independently. Our visits cover personal care given without rushing, prompting and support with medication, meals, laundry, shopping and help to get out to appointments or simply out for some air. Some people need half an hour first thing and nothing more. Others need several longer calls a day, and what somebody needs usually shifts over time, so we review arrangements honestly rather than letting a plan go stale. For people living with dementia, staying at home is often the one thing keeping them settled, and that makes continuity essential rather than merely desirable. The same carers arriving at the same times will do more good than anything else we could offer. For people with a physical disability we pay attention to equipment, moving and handling done properly, and above all to allowing enough time, since rushing is where both dignity and safety go. We are guests in the homes we work in, and our staff are expected to behave that way. Please get in touch if you are arranging care at home locally.
