About personal care
What it usually involves
Help with washing, bathing or showering, dressing, shaving, hair, going to the toilet and continence care, done in a way that protects dignity.
How a self-employed carer can help
They can come at times that suit your loved one rather than a rota, and it's the same person each time, which matters for something this personal. Lifting with equipment such as a hoist needs training, so ask about it.
Questions worth asking
- How much experience do you have with personal care?
- Have you had moving and handling training?
- How do you help someone feel comfortable and in control?
- Are you happy to be shown how Mum likes things done?
- Are you happy to be around pets?

What if Mum would prefer a female carer?
That's a completely reasonable thing to ask for. You can choose by gender when you search.
Can a self-employed carer help with washing and dressing?
Yes, many do. Agree exactly what's included before the first visit, and write it down so there are no surprises.

Why I started Carers & Cleaners
When my mum, Jean, was diagnosed with dementia, I found it surprisingly hard to find good local help. In the end we found a wonderful independent carer, and later a cleaner, by word of mouth. I built Carers & Cleaners so other families don't have to rely on luck.
