Have someone there to assist you before, during and around important appointments. This can include help getting to medical, health and other appointments, attending with you where needed and making the process feel more manageable.
We can also help with the practical parts of the day, such as getting organised beforehand, travelling to and from the appointment and making sure you have the assistance you need while you are there. This can help reduce some of the stress that often comes with managing appointments on your own.
Get practical assistance with the tasks that help keep your home comfortable, clean and organised. This can include cleaning, general household tasks, light gardening and other everyday jobs that may be difficult to keep on top of without some extra help.
