Talking about personal care preferences

It can feel difficult to ask for assistance with washing, dressing or other personal routines. You can begin by telling us which tasks are becoming harder and how you would prefer to be supported. Questions about privacy and comfort are welcome.

Consider the timing of visits, the products or clothing you prefer and any assistance already available at home. We will discuss these details as part of planning care. Support should be explained in a way you understand, with your views heard throughout the process.

Before you contact us

  • Which personal routines would you like help with?
  • What would help you feel comfortable receiving assistance?
  • Do preferred times or existing routines need to be considered?

Your first enquiry is a chance to explain your situation and ask questions. We will talk through the next steps with you.
