At Blue Ribbon Community Care, we understand that staying healthy is the cornerstone of maintaining independence at home. Early detection of health concerns can make all the difference in ensuring your loved one’s long-term wellbeing. That’s why we offer customised health and wellbeing checks, designed to bring reassurance to your family and promote independent living for as long as possible.
What Are Health and Wellbeing Checks?
Our wellbeing checks are carried out by professionally trained care workers who monitor a range of vital health indicators to ensure your loved one stays well. Using a structured and nationally recognised scoring system often relied upon in healthcare, these checks are designed to provide accurate, reliable insights into your loved one’s health.
If we detect anything that needs further attention, we will notify you immediately and, if necessary, liaise with healthcare professionals to ensure prompt support.
What Do We Check?
During a wellbeing check, our care experts monitor key health indicators, including:
Blood pressure and pulse: Ensuring cardiovascular health.
Temperature: Spotting early signs of infection or illness.
Breathing and oxygen levels: Checking respiratory health.
Alertness: Monitoring cognitive responsiveness.
General wellbeing: Asking targeted questions to assess physical and emotional health.
This comprehensive approach ensures your loved one’s overall wellbeing is reviewed thoroughly.
How Do Our Health Checks Work?
Our wellbeing checks are carried out during initial assessments and routine care reviews as part of our standard home care or live in care services.
If you would feel that more frequent or ongoing monitoring would give you greater peace of mind, we offer this as an additional service, giving you the choice to tailor the frequency to suit your loved one’s needs. You remain fully in control of how often these checks are conducted, ensuring the service aligns with your preferences and circumstances.
Using an innovative scoring system like those trusted across the NHS, our care experts deliver clear, actionable insights that you and local healthcare professionals can rely on.
