Reablement care is simply putting into place some support measures within the home to help someone regain independence, usually following a period of time spent in hospital. It can provide reassurance, both to the individual and their wider family, and can be organised ahead of time if necessary.
Spending time in hospital can naturally cause a great deal of anxiety, while it can also be physically draining. Even a short stay, or minor operation, can make returning to everyday life initially daunting – and this where quality reablement care comes in.
Care Matters provide reablement care to help and support you or a loved one, in order to regain independence in your home. Getting back up to full speed, after a stay in hospital, can take time – and acknowledging that is crucial. Consequently, reablement care is an important part of our wide range of care at home support services. Our highly trained team of care at home specialists in Darlington and Stockton are well versed in supporting people to live comfortably in their own home again.

Since my partner came home and needed 24 hour care, how amazing my carers have been with him. Every one of them goes above and beyond their duties. I have never seen him laugh and smile so much since all carers make him feel part of the crew. MS, partner of service user.

Reablement care can involve both physical and mental elements. In addition to any day-to-day personal care requirements, our dedicated care teams can help with a number of practical support measures to help rebuild confidence. For example, many of the people we care for need assistance with walking, while their strength is built up again – and we can play a key role on helping you get there.
Whether you need to organise reablement care ahead of time, or at shorter notice, you’re welcome to get in touch. We offer reablement care in and around Darlington and Stockton, and you can contact us at any time by requesting a callback, here.
