What is personal care?

Health and Personal Care involves support with daily living tasks, private hygiene and health-related activities, tailored to your individual needs.

Recognising the individuality of each person, we offer bespoke care plans that cater to your specific needs. Our team is equipped to offer the support you need, whether it’s a live-in carer that resides in your home, visiting care, respite care or overnight assistance.

Supporting your Independence

A fully trained private carer offers discreet health and personal care to support your independence and wellbeing.

At Lidder Care, our carers are all fully trained to provide dedicated, person-centred home care that promotes your independence and supports you to continue to live life on your own terms. Working to your regular routines and ensuring that support is tailored to your specific health and personal care requirements, you’ll always receive care in the way that’s most comfortable and convenient for you.

We believe in the importance of a continuous service and the same familiar faces, especially when it comes to health and personal care.

Personal care, tailored to your needs

Our health and personal care plans are built entirely around your specific needs and routines.

Like all forms of care, support with health and personal care is built completely around your individual needs and personal routines. If you have specific health conditions that require monitoring or particular personal care preferences, a carer will happily follow your schedule, letting you live the way you want.

Carers who go above and beyond

Lidder Care carers truly go above and beyond for every customer, whatever your health and personal care needs.

We’re extremely particular about who we recruit to our care teams, only hiring the most compassionate, dedicated candidates. Every carer is expertly trained to provide health and personal care in a way that is discreet, respectful of your personal boundaries, and attentive to your health needs at all times.

As well as providing health and personal care, our carers can also assist you around your home in a number of other ways, such as:

Help with light housework

Provide mobility assistance

Prepare meals and ensure proper nutrition

Assist with medication management

Offer friendly companionship

Help you attend medical appointments

Personal Care Options

With health and personal care from Lidder Care, you have the choice of having either visiting care or live-in care, depending on the level of support you require.

Visiting Care

Visiting care provides you with someone who visits at set times of the day or even overnight – to provide the support you need at the times you need it.

  • Visits from 30 minutes per week
  • Flexible care
  • Condition-led support

Live-in Care

If you require ongoing health and personal care and need support at all times of the day and night, it may be best to have a live-in carer, living at home with you to provide 24-hour care.

  • Companionship
  • Round-the-clock help
  • Carer matched to you

Customer stories

Find out how we’re helping people to be more independent and confident at home.

Every Lidder Care customer has a special story. Here are some of our favourite examples of how our support is making a difference to people’s lives:

  • "A clean and up to date environment, always very welcoming, someone always available if we need to talk. Both my mother-in-law and father-in-law live in Newgate Lodge. My mother-in-law is upstairs and my father-in-law is downstairs. Both have their needs met really well and the staff have genuine care and respect for them both."

    Pamela C Daughter-in-law of Resident
  • "My grandma has been at Newgate Lodge for a few years. It does not feel like a care home. It feels like Grandma's home. The staff love and care for the residents and do everything they can to make their stay as enjoyable and comfortable as possible. The residents are treated with dignity and care each and every day. The relatives are also made very welcome and we feel part of the family. I would have no hesitation in recommending Newgate Lodge Care Home."

    Sarah E Granddaughter of Resident
  • "My husband and I have visited a resident since she arrived and have been very impressed by the care and support, she and other residents' receive. Although she is deaf and cannot speak she is never ignored and is included in things that can be difficult in her case. Residents seem relaxed and well cared for. It's like a big happy caring family. We have visited other care homes and this is certainly the best."

    Joan J Friend of Resident
  • "My brother is very happy to live here. He is well cared for and gets on well with everyone including the staff. I find all the staff very caring and always willing to help. All the staff are always pleasant when I visit. Myself being a carer for 28 years I would highly recommend this care home to anyone needing care."

    Teresa S Sister of Resident
  • "We required urgent care for my father in law. I went to look around. The home was clean and beautifully presented. The member of staff who took all the details was kind, professional and understanding. My father in law arrived the following day. A carer immediately advised that the dementia unit would not be appropriate so he lives downstairs and only sleeps upstairs in the dementia unit. The home manager is excellent and supportive of the difficulties between my husband and his brother. We can visit when we wish. There has been a marked improvement in improvement in both my father in law's physical and mental health."

    C S Daughter-in-law of Resident

Personal care for someone with dementia

We have experts and specialists on hand to provide your loved one with gentle support.

Our carers are fully trained to offer specialist dementia care, including Alzheimer’s care. It is common for someone who is living with dementia to need support with health and personal care matters. But this can be difficult if that person is experiencing anxiety and confusion over who people are and shame and embarrassment over more intimate activities such as bathing and dressing.

We train our carers to understand these sources of anxiety or resulting aggression from someone who is living with a type of dementia. They offer gentle encouragement and support to help your loved one feel at ease. Sometimes it’s as simple as offering extra space, or even demonstrating the task for them.

Better than residential care

When you’re looking for support, it’s important to find a care plan that works for you. Unlike residential care, care at home from Lidder Care is fully tailored to your personal needs and preferences.
