COVID-19 Update

COVID-19 Safety

COVID-19 is still around. It’s a good idea to keep doing simple things to protect our families and communities. You can check common sense precautions here.  

Government announced a change, effective 3rd April 2023.

The risk of harm significantly reduced.  Testing has been changed accordingly. 

Testing is targeted to those who are eligible for treatment if they get Covid – in short those with compromised immunity. Check your eligibility here.  You can apply for free rapid flow test kits online if you are eligible for treatment. You are asked to report your results if tests are supplied. If you are not eligible for treatment, you are not required to test. This applies to carers as well.

At Seniors Helping Seniors we are proud of the S.A.F.E. care award achieved during the height of the crisis, and we do all we can to protect our carers and vulnerable clients. Whilst we understand being told the risk of harm is low, our carers will take time off work if they know they have anything infectious, including COVID.  If clients contract anything infectious, including COVID we give our carers the choice to attend, we ensure those with maximum immunity attend and PPE will be worn.

 

Our Mission

Our non-medical care focusses on keeping well.   Preventing problems is very much right-place, right-time in the UK.

The cost benefits and efficiencies in our processes secure the in-home elderly care business model. 

Our clients benefit from a variety of services, not limited to: light housekeeping, cooking and shopping, DIY, gardening, medication reminders, escort to appointments, exercise and community events, experienced care for conditions such as Dementia, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and more.  All our services are delivered with sincere companionship because our focus is same-person care and carefully matching carer to client.

Fully managing all elements of service provides outstanding customer experiences and supports outstanding carers.

Our carers are staying active, staying social, and staying financially stable with an hourly wage which is above the Living Wage. Our franchise partners make money through doing good. 

The teachable business model exemplifies profit with purpose, empowerment, self-governance, thought leadership and the value of local expertise.

 

"We have been using the services of Seniors Helping Seniors for over 4 years and have been really pleased with the care and attention the team have always given to Mum. Nothing has ever been too much trouble and the team have often gone above and beyond to ensure that Mum was comfortable in her own home for as long as possible.

They often shared lots of laughs and fun times as well as caring for her emotional and physical needs and it always left us reassured that she was in the best of hands.

They are a very flexible team and always willing to help out when additional support was required putting the needs of Mum first. A special thanks to Eileen and Simone who have been on the journey with Mum and become more than a companion to her, they have become good friends. A very caring exceptional company. "

"Our Mum is suffering from severe dementia and although we take on a lot of the care ourselves, we needed some extra help in the afternoons. The care from SHS has been outstanding. All the carers have been great with Mum, taking her for a drive, a cup of tea and a piece of cake when able which is her favourite thing to do.

We have received photo’s of Mum from the carers of Mum while she is out and she always looks so happy. She can’t wait to go with them! Teresa provided Mum with a photo book at Christmas – such a lovely thing to do and Mum treasures this. Tina has been great also - always there to help co-ordinate and offer support.

We really cannot fault the care received. We know Mum is in safe hands and Dad can have a rest while she is out. Highly recommended! Joanna, Karen and Nicola."
