Before you check your loved one into Three Oaks Care Home, Candour Care Services or Gold Care Homes in Welwyn make sure you take a look at home care in Welwyn as a convenient and cost effective alternative or you and your family. We can also offer sitters for the elderly in Welwyn retirement homes such as Guessens Court, College Way and Roseacre Gardens.
Before private home care came into being, there were no viable alternatives to care homes. However, care homes started to get a bad reputation when clients and their families started to complain about the impersonal way that most clients were being treated. With funding cutbacks by government agencies, and the spiraling cost of care in this type of environment, staffing levels obviously had to suffer. This led to understaffing and too many clients to cater for. Indeed, in many instances, this was a recipe for disaster. It is not just the older generation that needs assistance. In many cases, young adults, who may have slight mental disabilities or physical restraints, may want to live independent of their parents or guardians. Places in sheltered housing may also be at a premium so the only alternative was to put them in an institution.
This does not apply these days of course since companies like ours are purpose built to take care of just about anyone. Keeping someone who needs help within their own environment serves several needs. One of these is that it keeps that person secure in their own surroundings. The elderly in particular can get quite confused when dementia is setting in so having home visits is the ideal solution. Likewise, the confidence that our clients gain by having us call in regularly is absolutely priceless. They feel completely in control of their own lives and this builds their self esteem. As we all know, depression is a terrible thing and those people who feel that they cannot cope anymore often succumb to it. By having one of our professionally trained staff visiting regularly, to help in everyday tasks like washing, dressing, shopping and general errand running etc.
Most people start to look forward to the social interaction aspect of the visit. This is often enough to give them a new ‘lease of life’ – no pun intended! Lease of Life Home Care is a professional company that has been in operation for many years and we pride ourselves in giving as much attention to our clients as is necessary. It may be that adult children want their parents to be called in on a few times a day or week, or it could be that they need an assurance that their loved one will be seen on a daily basis. It is this reassuring approach that allows our company to stand out in a crowd.

”On behalf of my mum and our family –
We are very happy with the care you provide – all the carers we’ve met are kind, helpful and appear to know my mum well, she appreciates their help in managing her daily needs. Each visit is of such value to her as she lives alone – we know that the friendly company is so important to her wellbeing and request that each carer stays the full visit time.
Recently a carer found her on the bedroom floor (unharmed thankfully) – and the care coordinator was called. She contacted us and dealt with the incident calmly and professionally – following up the paramedic recommendation for a urine test. Such reassuring communication and actions for us as a family who are not on hand.
Please extend our thanks and appreciation to all carers who visit her – we are very grateful.
Thank you
El.S.
