To ensure that we provide you with the highest quality of care, all our care givers and staff go through a comprehensive screening and on going training programme.
Elmes Homecare is built upon 3 principles:
- Old age need not be a barrier to a full and enjoyable life
- Our clients will feel happy, safe and secure in their own homes
- We will offer the best possible care for the best possible price
I have cared for an elderly relative. I know the members of our extended and loving family lead extremely busy lives. We have family commitments to our children and our work. Elmes Homecare is a service that supports our own clients as they enter a more mature period of their lives, and also provides support for their families along the way.
Elmes Homecare knows it is important for our clients and their families to:
- Enjoy the stability and familiarity that comes with a long-term relationship with a carer or companion
- Achieve good value for money with no hidden surprises
- Receive care that places equal importance on mental and physical wellbeing – a happy, stimulated and mentally alert person enjoys a superior quality of life
Elmes Homecare is much more than a business – it is a passion to do the right thing. We only employ carers and companions we would feel comfortable looking after our own parents and loved ones.
What’s different and why us?
Tailored personal care
Wouldn’t it make sense that if you liked gardening, walks in the park or classic films that your carer also liked to do these things too? We think so and hence that is why we go out of our way to understand our client’s exact needs and not only find the carer with the right experience but one that has a compatible outlook in life – where common interests are a must: animals/pets, theatre, cinema, gardening, cricket, excursions with your carer to stately homes or garden centres or simply a drive to the countryside on a sunny afternoon.
We also appreciate that it is a difficult decision to choose the right personal care solution and that you need time to understand all your options. We are available to chat and help you formulate the right personal care package for your needs. We are always willing and flexible to help you tailor a solution.
Long Term
At Elmes Homecare, we do our very best to ensure you get the best carer for you and your lifestyle and then we do our utmost to get that carer to stay with you.
This may seem an obvious approach but it is not what drives many of our competitors. Some will only commit to placing one carer for a maximum of 3 weeks or provide multiple carers during the month. This does not provide the stability and comfort that you need.
At Elmes Homecare, we are here for you for the long term. We provide you with a tailored care package covering domestic help, companionship and personal care, specific to your needs.
