Easter treats delivered to older people by home care team

A team of home care workers have delivered over 75 Easter treats to service users over the bank holiday weekend to spread Easter cheer to their local service users.

Care workers provided company to many older people in their area who might not have been able to spend time with their family and friends over the bank holiday weekend.

Chocolate Easter Bunnies were delivered by team members of Carefound Home Care to people in Harrogate, Ripon and Wetherby.

Oliver Stirk, director of Carefound Home Care, commented: “We support elderly people at home on both an hourly care and full-time live-in care basis. Helping our clients enjoy an active life as part of their local community is a vital part of the service we provide and being able to celebrate special times of the year with them is always a huge pleasure.

“In addition to basic help in the home and companionship, we also provide specialist support to families experiencing more complex conditions such as dementia and Parkinson’s. Events such as Easter can be a very effective way of triggering positive long-term memories which play an important role in improving the well-being of the people we support.”

Carefound provides specialist home care services for people living in Yorkshire, specialising in dementia care, Parkinson’s, stroke and palliative care.The team has previously delivered treats and present for service users around Christmas time and held a fundraising event to raise money for their local charities.
