Could companionship care be the answer to the UK’s biggest care challenge?
What would you say is the single biggest health concern for the elderly in our society? Physical ailments and diseases are probably top of your list, but you might be surprised to learn the answer.
Loneliness, is plaguing our society with an alarming intensity and has a profound effect on the physical and mental health of the most vulnerable people in our communities. With the advances of modern medicine, people are living longer, which is a very positive thing, of course, but it has created a new problem: more and more individuals are spending their later years in solitude. This isolation can lead to heightened risk of anxiety and depression, particularly among the elderly, both of which are taking a terrible toll physically, as well as mentally and emotionally.
The problem of loneliness is not just a social issue but a health crisis. As a Senior Care Agency in the UK, we see daily how End-Of-Life Care in the UK, Elderly Medication Administration, and even Home Care Supervision can be lonely experiences.
Companionship: A Healing Touch
As a leading Domiciliary Care Agency in the UK, Sylvian Care understands this is a very complex and important issue, and we consider addressing loneliness as being at least as important as meeting the purely physical needs of our clients. It is for this reason that so much of our Domiciliary Care Services in the UK focuses on relationship-based care, and are specifically designed to address the loneliness that many of the elderly face.
We go beyond mere Home Care Supervision and actually take the time to build these valuable relationships with our clients because we recognize that each person has an innate drive to socialize and connect with others, and that fulfilling this plays a huge role in overall health and quality of life.
Our Professional Home Care Services provide 24/7 Home Care Assistance in the UK, including Hourly Home Care Services and Elder Home Care Services. Our 24-Hour Elderly Care Services and Elder Personal Care in the UK are tailored to each individual's needs, because we understand that every one of our clients is unique.
