What is Personal Care?

Personal care is day-to-day support with tasks that are personal and sensitive, like washing, dressing, using the toilet, or moving around safely at home.

At Acacia Homecare, personal care isn’t just about routines; it’s about supporting independence, preserving dignity, and building trust. Our carers take the time to understand what matters most to you, so every visit feels comfortable, respectful and completely tailored to your needs.

Whether you need just a little help in the mornings or more regular support throughout the day, we’re here to make life that bit easier and a lot more reassuring.

Who is Personal Care For?

Personal care is for anyone who needs a little extra help with daily tasks that involve their body and wellbeing, whether on a short-term basis or long-term support.

It’s especially helpful for:

Washing & Bathing

Help with showering, bed baths, or simply getting freshened up for the day.

Toileting & Continence Care

Sensitive, discreet support with toileting needs, including catheter or stoma care.

Dressing & Undressing

Assistance with choosing clothes, getting dressed, or getting ready for bed.

Mobility Support

Help with moving safely around the home or getting in and out of bed or chairs.

Oral Hygiene & Grooming

Support with brushing teeth, shaving, hair care, or any other grooming routines.

Meal Preparation & Nutrition

Help with preparing meals or snacks and ensuring you’re eating well.

Setting Up Your Care

It all starts with a friendly chat. We’ll listen to your needs, answer your questions and arrange a free, no-obligation care assessment in your home. This helps us understand exactly how we can support you or your loved one.

2. We Create Your Personalised Care Plan

Based on your needs and preferences, we’ll design a tailored care plan that fits around your life. You’ll be involved in every step, so you know exactly what to expect.

3. Meet Your Carer & Start Care

Once you’re happy with your personalised care plan, we’ll arrange your care calls with our trained compassionate carers. We ensure consistency, so you’ll see familiar, friendly faces you can build a trusting relationship with.
