This can include help with washing, dressing, toileting and continence care, as well as preparing light meals, encouraging regular drinks and supporting safe movement around the home. Carers can assist with light domestic tasks such as laundry and tidying, offer company and emotional reassurance, and provide prompts or practical support for medication routines in line with professional guidance. All support is tailored to your energy levels, symptoms and personal preferences.
