TelephoneThere may be rare occasions when your care support worker is unable to visit, because of illness or circumstances beyond their control. We will always make contact with you beforehand, in such cases & arrange a replacement care support worker preferably someone you have met before and we will provide you with the name of the care support worker who will be visiting you.
Our carers Have Regular Support from managers and Chenash Homecare also values and promotes peer support especially during new carers induction stage.
Chenash Homecare Specialists & Care Agency offer flexible care services / packages. We do long term contracts, short term contracts, interim contracts as well as one off care services. This gives you the flexibility to choose which service you want. Emergency packages are also available. Please ring up our office to discuss any of the above services / packages.
Our visits start from 30 minutes to 24 hours live in care. We offer morning, afternoon and night time visits. We also offer waking night; where a carer can come and stay with you overnight if you require a significant level of support at night as well as sleep in night. This ensures that you have someone you can call up for assistance, up to three times per night, should this be required.
All our carers go through a rigorous assessment process before any offer of employment. This includes a face to face interview, written assessments and criminal record checks. We always ensure that our carers are up to date with their training, including annual refresher courses. We conduct regular spot checks with all our carers to ensure that they are practising in a professional manner & this also gives us the opportunity to ensure that you are happy with our services. All our staff have regular supervision to offer support & are all expected to have annual appraisals.
We hope such occurrences will not cause any inconvenience to your care package / services. In such cases, however, we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know of the care support worker’s revised arrival time or provide you details of the new care support worker who will be visiting you.
We appreciate that dynamics may arise when two people meet and if for any reason you and your care support worker do not get on, please let the Registered Manager know as soon as possible, so that we can make speedy arrangements to find you a new care support worker.
