Meal Preparation

Often families and other support may be limited and that is the beauty of home care we can provide you a visit duration that meets the needs you request for a meal that you enjoy.
Nutrition is so important as we grow older, it prevents us from ill health. The stigma is often that only ready meals can be provided to customers receiving homecare and we want to ensure this is not the case.

All our care workers complete a full induction course looking at food hygiene and infection control when handling food. They are given the knowledge and time in their care visits to prepare you freshly cooked meals from ingredients.

From light meals to main meals our care team will deliver your care visits to ensure you can still enjoy your mealtimes. Making it a positive experience.

We will also sit and share meals with you if requested offering companionship at the same time. Companionship we believe as a company makes such a difference. Promoting mental health and minimising any triggers that lead to poor appetite or poor diet.

Monitoring intake of food and fluids is vital in ensuring we can assess you are receiving a safe service and remaining safe at home. Preventing dehydration which could lead to common infections.

We will always ensure we leave fluids readily available and prepare meals and drinks to your preference. Offering support and advice for those who have specific dietary requirements.
We will ensure allergies are known and support with meal plans to support with weight management where medical advice is given.
