Stroke: Live-in Care

What is stroke care?

Suffering a stroke can have a serious impact on an older person's mobility, verbal communication, hearing or eyesight. That is why we firmly believe that the best place for them to receive the care they need is in their own home, where they feel safe and comfortable. 

Our live-in carers can help with day-to-day tasks like shopping, cooking, cleaning, dressing and going to the bathroom. Our aim is to help our client keep their independence whilst receiving quality live-in care. An Elite carer is trained in all aspects of post-stroke care and can help with rehabilitation while removing the pressure from family members who may not have the knowledge and skills required to provide support.
