Solihull Home Care Ltd

At Solihull Home Care, we understand feeling comfortable and at ease with your care worker is an important part of building a relationship. With that in mind, a vital part of our social companionship service involves getting to know you as an individual, your likes and your dislikes so we can match your preferences to one of our care workers. Time spent with your care worker can be spent chatting and reminiscing. Beyond that, it can be more structured to include:

Day-to-day tasks
Assistance with the day to day tasks associated with running your home. These could include light domestic, sorting and reading mail or writing letters, making appointments or phone calls to utility companies, etc.

Social activities
Support to join or continue to participate in social groups or community activities like fitness or art classes. Support with maintaining interests and hobbies.

Trips out
Driving you or escorting you to appointments, visiting friends or going to the theatre or simply a walk in the park.

We offer two types of night care services: sleeping night or waking night. Our night care service starts at 10pm and finishes at 7am, however, these times can be extended if you require additional support with your morning or bedtime routine.

Sleeping night care
Our sleeping night service promotes confidence and independence for individuals who do not need support throughout the night. Once you are settled and supported with your bedtime routine, the care worker will retire to an allocated bedroom and be available should you need them at any time during the night. During the night, your carer will be able to support you with toileting, preparing a drink or snack, or simply offering reassurance.

Waking night care
This option is ideal for those individuals who require increased attention throughout the night, or who are awake for longer periods of time. Your care worker will be awake and alert throughout the night. Support is at hand at all times whether you need physical assistance or companionship. This service offers you complete reassurance at any hour.

Our respite care service allows for your regular carer to have a break from their usual support routine. This could be a family member or friend, and this could be anything from a few hours to a few days. We understand that taking some time off can be a concern for yourself and your carer, and you may feel apprehensive. Solihull Home Care Limited will provide a high-quality support package tailored to you— giving you and those who care for you vital assurance you'll continue to receive the support you want and need while your regular carer has a well-deserved break.

Have you recently been discharged from hospital? Are you concerned whether you will need additional support after an operation or medical procedure? Our short-term packages are an ideal care solution whilst you recover. Solihull Home Care are here to help as you return to your prior ability in the comfort of familiar surroundings.

Suffering from a life-threatening illness can be a difficult time for you and those who love you, and our dedicated carers are here making life a little easier. We will discuss with you and set up a plan that supports you at each stage of your illness — from diagnosis and ongoing support to bereavement and loss.


End-of-life care
As part of our palliative care provision, we support those in the final months of their life. Solihull Home Care firmly believes that everyone has a right to live well until their final moments and to die in a way that is comfortable and dignified. In many instances, end-of-life care can be provided within your own home. Alongside our own palliative care services, we work with you, your loved ones, and local authorities and specialist professionals to ensure your care provisions are right for you.

All care workers at Solihull Home Care are trained to provide medication support. During your initial home visit, we'll work with you to create a detailed care support plan that will document any prescriptions you take. Where you'd like, our home carers will prompt and remind you take prescribed medication, and where necessary, physically assist and administer medication. Assisting could include: opening packaging, providing water to take medication, and recording what medication has been taken and when. Administering could include support with liquids, applying creams or instilling eye and eardrops.
