Palliative Care

It is often found that, at the end of life, individuals prefer to rest safely and peacefully in the comfort of their own home surrounded by loved ones whether that's for the final weeks or months.  

 We offer this service under the NHS Continuing Healthcare funding as well as through private funding. Whatever the route, we always ensure the same exceptional level of care put in place within 24 hours.

At Care Resource Bureau, we believe that anyone should have the choice to remain at home until their final moments, which is why we have made it our mission to enable this wherever possible. Our experienced team of carers are on hand to reassure and support families through this final stage of life and beyond, working closely with GPs, district nurses, palliative care nurses, Rennie Grove nurses, Macmillan nurses and Marie Curie nurses.

 

We tailor your care plan to accommodate medication requirements as well as any other support that may be needed to ensure the transition is as comfortable as possible. What's more, we ensure support and advice is available 24/7 so you are never alone.

 

The loss of a loved one is a challenging time for all and we believe that, after the transition has taken place, families often need time together to mourn peacefully. This is why the Care Resource Bureau team is trained to make arrangements, give advice at your request and communicate with all necessary parties on your behalf.

live in

Live-in Care

Live-in carers support you around the clock so you will never have to be alone whilst making the choice to remain in your own home. It can be supplied whether you live alone or with a loved one.

All of our carers are hand-picked by us, ensuring you are provided with a reliable, quality and caring service centred around you. We ensure our carers are trained to the highest standard and receive regular refresher training in standard care and support, as well as in specialised care where required.

 

We strive to enable a 'normal' home life wherever possible, taking into consideration any physical or cognitive impairments, we encourage and arrange outings to aid mental and physical wellbeing as well as improve quality of life.

Perhaps you have no one to go with you who is able to provide you with the care you require? Whilst Care Resource Bureau predominantly offers care within the home, we are able to assist you almost anywhere including on holiday.

 

If you have a medical appointment, we offer several different services to be able to assist you in attending that appointment including escorting you so and you don’t have to go alone. For those who are eligible, we are able to arrange transport via the NHS transport service, or via private arrangement should this be preferable.

personal care

Personal Care and Support

Our role is to support you in the life choices that you make which is why we put you at the centre of our planning to discover what you want, the support you need and how we can provide it. Just as everybody is different, everybody requires different levels of care; whether you need somebody to bathe and dress you or just need someone to pop in to help with the weekly shop, we are here to give you the care and support you need to lead the most independent life possible.

 

Although our care is tailored to meet your individual needs our most commonly requested services include medication management, support with movement, washing, continence management, dressing and grooming, outings including shopping, meal preparation and eating, peg feeding, skin and pressure care as well as companionship.

dementia

Dementia Care

The impact of dementia is rarely limited to one person alone and can also affect families, friends and local communities. Our role is to support you in maintaining as much independence as possible, enabling you to continue to make a positive contribution within your circle of family, friends and local community.  

 

As you may already know, dementia is a difficult condition to live with whether you are the person with the condition or you care for someone who has it. Every day is different and the care and support required can vary dramatically from day to day. Caring for someone with dementia requires specialist communication and behavioural skills to ensure identity is maintained and dignity preserved.

 

We believe that everybody has the right to live the fullest life available to them and we work hard to enable our clients with dementia to continue living their chosen lifestyle safely and for as long as possible. Through flexible, tailored care we encourage clients to carry out their daily tasks to the best of their abilities and support them in doing so rather than ‘taking over’. This helps maintain a sense of independence and control that is so important and can make a big difference to their quality of life. 

We currently accept patients with needs arising from a medical diagnosis of dementia or Alzheimer's with NHS funding or those requiring Live-in care on a private basis or Local Authority funded. Our experience in the field of Alzheimer's and dementia has shown us that, due to the progressive nature of the disease, clients often require a more comprehensive package than home care visits alone. We can tailor our care to align with the needs of our clients and this can be adapted over time. Our knowledge means we are also perfectly placed to guide clients through all stages including being able to make referrals to additional support services through our professional network for example psychiatrist referrals, NHS patient transport booking, speech and language referrals (SALT) and specialist day care service referrals.

same day

Same-day Discharge

Care Resource Bureau provide a Same-day service for those being discharged from hospital to home under NHS funding for Palliative Care and always aim to implement the care package within 24 hours of referral. 

 

In providing this service we hope to eliminate the hospitalisation of individuals who are medically fit for discharge which also reduces 'bed blocking' within the NHS.

24 hr

24 Hr Waking Care

In cases where there is greater risk to the client, for example a higher chance or falling, choking, distress or aspiration, we can implement either a 12 or 24 hour intensive package allowing clients and families the peace of mind knowing that someone is constantly on hand day or night to address any issues that may arise. These packages can be beneficial in allowing family members to continue with life as 'normally' as possible whether that is getting a good night's sleep, going to work or not having to shoulder all the responsibility during the more challenging times of the day. As with all our complex care packages, we ensure that clients receive the right expert care for their needs through our specialist care team.

respite

Respite Care

When caring for a family member situations arise, whether planned or unforeseen, that require respite care. We are on hand and able to step in when families need to take time out from their daily care responsibilities. Perhaps this is for a much-needed holiday or an unexpected hospital stay, whatever the situation we can take the strain, even with short notice, allowing carers to not worry in their absence.

complex

Complex Care

We are proud to offer expert care for individuals with a range of conditions including physical disabilities, Motor Neurone disease, cancer, stroke, epilepsy, Parkinsons disease, Huntingtons disease, Cerebral Palsy, Alzheimers and dementia, Multiple Sclerosis, plus head, brain and spinal injuries as well as supporting people at risk with swallow issues that require specialist feeding. 

We truly believe that everybody should have the choice to remain in the comfort of their own home which is why, by working closely with other appropriate Health Care care professionals, we ensure you have a strong support network in place. We also are able to access specialist training services, and are always working to broaden the different levels of support that we can provide, which enables us to manage a wide variety of complex care tools including gastrostomy/PEG Training, stoma, catheter, urostomy, suction, NIV, ventilator, cough-assist and oxygen. We hope that our expert knowledge will give you the peace of mind to feel safe in your own home for as long as is desired.
