Supported living
B Kind Care provides services to adults over and under 65 years old. We look after those living in supported accommodation, people with physical disabilities, children and young people from foster homes, people with substance misuse, and people with mental health conditions. We can offer different services based on your situation.
Personal care
We know how important it is for you to live in your own home independently. We also believe your independence should not be compromised just because you are a little older or less able.
With our personal care services, you can continue to live in the way you always have, just with a little extra help when it’s needed.
Covering West Yorkshire, our friendly and helpful carers can be with you as often as you choose, from once a week to every hour of the day. Our personal care services are ideal if you would like help with daily washing, dressing, preparing meals, feeding, bathing, showering, and toiletry.
Applying creams and taking medication, getting up and going to bed. Personal care can be provided as a short-term solution, such as for respite care or if you have just been discharged from hospital. Alternatively, it can be used as a long-term solution to enable you to continue living life as you know it.
All our carers are highly trained and qualified. They are compassionate and understanding and are always happy to do things in the way you have always done.
Social calls
Whilst living on your own has lots of benefits, at times it can be lonely, and you can feel quite isolated. Seeing a friendly face can lift your spirits, break up the day, and give you something to look forward to.
Whether you’d like some companionship in the morning, perhaps to chat about the morning news, or to have someone to share a cup of tea with, in the afternoon, you can arrange a social call at any time of the day, and as little or often as you want.
During a social call, our carers can: pop in for a chat, read a book with you, help you with your hobbies, or play games such as cards, chess, or a jigsaw puzzle.
We can take you on a trip out of the house, such as for some fresh air down the local park or a coffee in the local café, walk or play with your dog.
Light domestic duties
While living in your own home is the most rewarding way to live, the domestic duties involved can become a strain.
We understand how stressful it is when you are unable to strip, wash, and iron your bed and clothes, or when the cleanliness of your home is not what it used to be.
To relieve you of this pressure our carers can take over from you and do all or some of your domestic duties, including cleaning, vacuuming, washing, ironing, or taking care of your pets.
Our carers can do these domestic duties as little or as often as you want. They are meticulous in their work and are happy to do each duty in the way they have always done. If you are already receiving care, these domestic duties can be incorporated into your existing care routine.
Shopping
We are dedicated to your health and well-being. We understand that sometimes you might not be able to get out and about to do your shopping.
If you are housebound or have limited mobility, having someone to go to the shops to pick up household items can make a world of difference. Having someone who can take you out on shopping trips can provide a welcomed break from the house and ensure you can get everything you need.
Our carers can go shopping as part of your personal care or respite care package or as a standalone shopping package.
Respite care
Respite care offers a short-term and highly flexible care solution. The packages range from an hour of care a day to a full day of care every day of the whole week.
This can be tailored to suit your individual needs. Respite care is designed to offer you care if you have just been discharged from the hospital and need extra care while you recover. Sometimes it is suitable if you need a short-term solution because your usual carer needs a well-deserved break or holiday.
To ensure minimal disruption to your established routines, our highly trained carers will devise a plan that reflects your current daily living pattern and how you would like to receive the care. During respite care our carers can assist with the following: help you with all aspects of daily personal care such as using the bathroom, preparing meals, or taking medication.
Day and night sitting
Having a carer there for you throughout the night can sometimes be the difference between being able to live at your own home and having to stay at a care home. Similarly, if just the thought of being on your own during the day or night makes you feel unsettled, B Kind Care carers can give you priceless reassurance and peace of mind so you can enjoy a good night's sleep in comfort and safety.
Our trained carers can help you with going to bed and getting up, taking medication, ensuring you are warm and comfortable, and going to the bathroom.
We will also provide you with companionship and be there for you if you wake up during the night. For people with dementia who would prefer to remain in the comfort of their own homes, day and night sitters would be available 24/7 to ensure your safety and personal and companion needs are met.
