Who are Guardian Carers?
We are a professional provider of live-in carers, senior carers, housekeeper companions and all manner of care staff. Our aim is to make the process of hiring a carer for you, a loved one or family member as straightforward and stress-free as possible. We understand that inviting someone into your home, or the home of a loved one, can be a daunting experience and that you need to make sure you can completely trust anyone you hire in a care role. With this in mind, we operate a stringent vetting process for all our care staff. We conduct thorough interviews, and even invite you to interview potential carers yourself if you wish to do so.
We only work with experienced and dedicated professionals and our bespoke service ensures we will only place staff who meet your needs. Our friendly and experienced team are always on hand to provide advice or to answer any questions you might have about the recruitment and hiring process or the general role of senior carers or any of our other staff.
What is expected from senior carers in Dulwich?
It probably comes as no surprise to learn that there isn't a set job description for a senior carer. We - and our carers - understand that the needs of each client and household are unique. A senior carer provides support and care in the client's home, meaning the client can continue to live the life he or she loves for as long as possible. Senior carers provide a wide range of services, including - but by no means limited to - the following:
- help with personal care and bathing
- running errands
- shopping for, preparing and cooking meals
- housework tasks, such as cleaning, tidying and laundry
- accompanying the client on day-trips or to social events
- aiding with activities and hobbies
- offering support and companionship where required
- helping the client get around the house and garden if mobility is an issue
Benefits of hiring senior carers in Dulwich
When you hire a senior carer, you are giving yourself or your loved one increased independence and peace of mind. Hiring a carer rather than moving into a residential care home causes minimal upset and disruption and means the daily routine of the client is largely uninterrupted.
Our experienced senior carers enable our clients to stay in their beloved home, close to their friends and neighbours, and with their family pets if they have any. Many of our clients are able to keep up their regular daily routines, including attending social events and taking day-trips, with the assistance of a senior carer.
