We visited Jim and Maggie regularly to support them with washing, cleaning, and other household activities, ensuring they had an environment in which they could thrive.
Both Jim and Maggie found it difficult to leave the house, so it was important their home was a place where they could spend quality time together and relax.
The Wellbeing Support Workers recommended an assessment, carried out by our Occupational Therapist, to help them make the most of their home. Following the assessment, we sourced products to make day-to-day activities easier, giving them more time and energy to do the things they enjoyed.
Small additions to their home, such as a tipping kettle for Jim to make his morning cup of coffee or a hands-free hairdryer for Maggie to dry her hair easily, made a big difference in their lives.
