What is Disability Care?

As the disability may well be extremely frustrating for the client, our carers always try to help them do as much as they can for themselves whilst maintaining full support where and when needed.

We often find that this personal help is really beneficial and gives extra confidence.

Who is eligible for disability care?

A disability is a reduced ability and difficulty with everyday activities. You’re disabled under the Equality Act 2010 if you have a physical or mental impairment that has a ‘substantial’ and ‘long-term’ negative effect on your ability to do normal daily activities.

Disability Care with TLC

You can be registered disabled under the Equality Act 2010 if you have a physical or mental impairment that has a ‘substantial’ and ‘long-term’ negative effect on your ability to do normal daily activities.

A disability can present daily challenges for a person or carer and these will vary by individual. The challenges that people and their carers face can be the things that we take for granted every day and can include; moving inside and outside of your home, washing, cooking and using the toilet.

At TLC, we are committed to working with you to offer the right care and support at the times you need it so that life can still be enjoyable, promoting independence and well-being for every individual we care for.

Total Living Care (TLC) offers a mixture of practical and emotional support for adults who need extra help to manage their lives and remain independent. Our care can support people who have a disability, long term illness or people with mental health problems. As well as caring for adults, TLC can offer parents or carers of family members who have a disability with help and support. This can take away some of the pressure and demands on a family member caring for a loved one on a full-time basis.

Our disability carer will come into your home on a regular basis, on a full time or part time basis to give practical help with a variety of everyday tasks as well as assistance with complex needs if required. We support people to safely function in their own home, enabling them to live independently and with dignity.

What can disability care include?

Disability care can help with everyday tasks as well as assistance with complex needs like physio, medication, developing social interaction and help with incontinence if needed. Our specially trained carers are experienced and qualified to work with people living with disabilities and are employed to support people so they can remain living at home. A disability carer can assist for an hour or two a day or they can provide 24-hour care and this is dependent on every person’s individual needs.

TLC carers can help with using the bathroom, lifting, washing, dressing, eating and much more. Our disability care is flexible and is adapted to every person’s needs. Our care plans are reviewed on a regular basis as we understand that a person’s needs can change regularly. Our TLC carers help individuals to lead a comfortable and fulfilling life in their own home.

What is a Health Care Plan?

A Health Care Plan is for individuals with a disability who may have funding support from their local council. A Health Care Plan is specific to an individual and is used where complex and/or techniques or procedures are required for their care or administration of medication. At TLC, we can help people with health care plans and we are committed to working with you to agree what is included.

Disability Respite Care

Our disability care doesn’t have to be in place on a regular basis and it can be used to provide family carers with time to rest and recharge their batteries. Caring for a loved one can be enormously rewarding but it can also be very demanding and exhausting both physically and mentally.

Respite care replicates the care that a full-time carer provides, and this enables the carer to have to time to themselves and time and space to think about their own health and wellbeing. At TLC, we ensure the carer that comes in to give respite care gets to know the person they are caring for beforehand and understands their needs, daily routine and care plan.

Disability Care Costs

Dependent on the severity of a person’s disability and support needs there may be funding support available. Your doctor or consultant will be able to help you with this and they will normally arrange for your local social services department to carry out a health and social care assessment. They will come out to you in your home and evaluate the person with the disability needs and then formally write their recommendations for the care and support that is needed before it is reviewed to decide if funding can be offered.

If a care budget is agreed then a regular payment is made to the person or their carer to enable them to pay for the care that they need. This allows you to choose the type of care you receive.

Allowing someone with a disability to have an input into the level and type of care they receive is really important for their personal empowerment, dignity, independence, self-confidence and well- being. At TLC, we always focus on this when putting a care plan together to ensure the person being cared for is happy and is able to live a fulfilling life doing the things they love.
