What’s included in elderly care at home?

Personal care

From personal care such as bathing, washing and dressing, to domiciliary care services around the home, our bespoke home care services may be the perfect option for your loved one.

Specialist domiciliary care

Our domiciliary care services also encompass household tasks such as cooking nutritious meals, washing clothes, and keeping the home clean and tidy, giving you peace of mind that your loved one is looked after in the best possible environment.

Practical support around the home

At MyLife, we understand that everyday household tasks can become overwhelming, and even risky, for those in need of elderly care. That’s why we take the time to listen, conducting thoughtful assessments and speaking with family members to explore how we can offer meaningful support.

Companionship and community involvement

From shopping trips, to lunch clubs, the cinema and new hobbies, our Care Assistants become cherished companions and build friendship bonds beyond their care duties.

Hourly care

If you’re looking for personalised care at home throughout the week, our hourly care service could be just what you need. This option offers flexible visits at specific times of the day – tailored to fit your routine and preferences.

Additional Support

Can I have consistency in the carers delivering my support?

We strive to offer as much consistency as possible in the carers delivering your support. For smaller care packages with fewer visits, achieving consistency is easier. If you require more frequent visits, such as 4 visits a day, 7 days a week, we will assign a small, dedicated network of carers to your care package to ensure you receive familiar and reliable support. Please feel free to contact us to discuss your specific needs and how we can best support you.

All MyLife Edinburgh carers must have a valid PVG before they can work with our clients. In addition, we will seek 2 references from previous employers or places of study before a carer is offered a role with MyLife.

Do you employ your carers directly, or do you bring them on-board via agencies?

We advertise, interview, select and employ all carers directly. We train our carers in-house using a dedicated training team. Once training has been completed, new carers then shadow an experienced carer before they embark on care delivery for our clients by themselves.

Testimonials

We needed a care package quickly and were impressed at the speed at which the details were arranged. The carers were punctual, polite and patient. They assisted my husband to recover his confidence and independence. We required the care for a short time only and were more than satisfied with the provider.

A. M. (Wife of Client / Service User)

I was very impressed with the patience and perseverance shown by the care staff who tried repeatedly to gain the trust of my aunt who has dementia. Despite her hostility the staff kept trying to provide support. Excellent support was also provided by management.

G. F. (Niece of Client / Service User)

I have been using MyLife Homecare for about five months to help with care for my elderly parents, both with dementia and have always been impressed with the friendly care given by the lovely carers and also all the staff in the office who have answered my queries promptly and efficiently. My mother, in particular, can be difficult with her dementia, and the carers proved to be so patient and caring with her. I would recommend MyLife to anyone seeking help with any loved one.

C. M. (Daughter of Client / Service User)

I am very pleased with the service MyLife provides. The staff, including the office staff, are very friendly and cheerful.

Excellent communication from management meet and greet. Carer perfect, lovely lady, very caring, knows the needs of the client. Has common sense. Regular communication by letter from providers. Easy to deal with.

M. C. (Client / Service User)

Found My Life purely by searching online. My mother was being discharged from hospital and I needed reliable support for her. The business manager was very helpful and saw her in hospital. All the staff have been great really can't fault them. I'd recommend them 100%.
