Carer needed
- passfield resident (1st Aug 2020 - 13:42:25)
I'm looking for someone to help my elderly father in Liphook three hours or so a week, preferably in the middle of the day-he needs help with washing and possibly with household jobs. I need someone who has some experience and references. Please would anyone who is interested post their phone number on here. Thanks

Hi I am a level 3 in health and social care. I would be able to help on a Friday after 1pm if this is of any help to you?

Hi there,
If you haven’t contacted the adult social care team at Hants County Council it may be worth doing so. If your father has an assessment he may be able to get help from various streams including occupational therapy. If the assessment shows he needs care and support to remain independent they will be able to sign post for care provision.
If he is needing assistance please support him to apply for attendance allowance ( if he hasn’t already) it is not means tested and so many older people miss out on this because they don’t know about it.
If you want any help completing the forms please ask Ed for my email as it is easy not to list things which help meet the criteria!
