Personal Care at Home in Birmingham

Needing help with the most private parts of the day is one of the hardest changes to accept. Our carers understand that. Personal care is delivered quietly and respectfully, at your pace, in the way you've always done things - whether that's a shave before breakfast, a bath rather than a shower, or getting your hair just right before visitors arrive.

Personal care is usually part of a live-in care arrangement, so the same familiar carer helps every day rather than a different face each visit.

Dignity first

We talk through preferences in detail before care begins - from whether you'd prefer a female or male carer to the products you use and the order you like to do things. Carers are trained in moving and handling and infection control, and they'll always explain what they're doing and ask before they help.

If equipment such as a shower chair, raised toilet seat or grab rails would make things safer, we'll suggest asking Birmingham City Council or your local council for an occupational therapy assessment.

Questions families ask

Yes. Tell us at the assessment and we'll take it into account when matching your carer.

Personal care is usually provided as part of a live-in or overnight arrangement. Call us to talk through what would work for you.
