Would you recognise the early signs of a pressure sore in an older loved one?

Sometimes, a change as simple as spending more time in bed can be an early indication that someone needs additional support.

Recently, our Care Professionals noticed changes in a customer’s usual routine, alongside some concerning areas of redness on her skin.

Rather than waiting for the situation to worsen, our team acted promptly, involving her GP, District Nurses and Community Support Team to ensure she received the appropriate assessments and recommendations for specialist equipment.

It’s a reminder of how important it is to recognise changes early, communicate concerns and work together with healthcare professionals to protect someone’s health and wellbeing.

In our latest blog, we share 7 early signs of pressure sores in older people, practical advice for families and why joined-up care can make such a difference 👉: https://braeburncare.co.uk/7-early-signs-of-pressure-sores-in-older-people-what-families-need-to-know/

A fantastic day at the TownSq Business Expo at Town Hall!

Our CEO, Harriet, and Registered Care Manager, Katy, enjoyed getting out into the local business community, catching up with familiar faces and meeting lots of new people.

It was a great opportunity to share more about Braeburn Care, the home care services we provide across West Kent and the wonderful work our Care Professionals do every day.

We’re proud to be a local business supporting local people, and building strong relationships within our community is an important part of what we do.

A big thank you to Lucie Merkl and her team for organising such a great event, and to everyone who stopped by our stand for a chat!

What makes an activity meaningful as we get older?

Sometimes, it can be something as simple as brushing and plaiting someone’s hair.

During a recent visit, one of our customers told her Care Professional, Kelly, that next time she visited, she would love to brush and plait Kelly’s long hair.

Kelly remembered… and arrived at her next visit with a hairbrush and hair bands ready.

Our customer was delighted. But what we particularly love about this moment is that she wasn’t having something done for her. She was the one doing something she enjoyed.

Good care should empower, not take over...

As we get older, needing a little extra support shouldn’t mean giving up the routines, interests and choices that make life our own. Whether it’s continuing to enjoy a favourite hobby, getting out into the community or simply deciding how to spend the day, those choices still matter.

At Braeburn Care, we believe our role is to support people to live life on their terms, stepping in where help is needed while encouraging them to remain as independent and involved as possible. Because receiving care shouldn’t mean losing control over how you live.

When was the last time you asked an older loved one what they actually had for lunch?

It’s a simple question, but the answer can sometimes tell us more than “Have you eaten?”

Recently, one of our Care Professionals, Amy, prepared homemade salmon, cod and haddock fishcakes for a customer, served with fresh vegetables. It looked delicious – but it also prompted an important conversation about eating well in later life.

Food going unused, meals becoming less varied, losing interest in cooking or regularly skipping meals can all be signs that someone may benefit from a little extra support.

In our latest blog, we explore 7 signs an older loved one may need support with meals, why eating habits can change as we get older, and some of the things families can look out for.

There’s no better reflection of our culture than hearing directly from the people who experience it.

Katy joined Braeburn Care as a Care Professional recently, and we were particularly pleased to hear how supported she has felt from day one – from colleagues being there to answer questions to managers regularly checking in and making sure she’s OK.

Working in home care can mean spending much of your day independently with customers, which makes having a supportive team behind you all the more important.

We want every Care Professional who joins Braeburn to feel welcomed, valued and confident that help is there whenever they need it.

Interested in joining our growing team?

We’re always keen to hear from compassionate people who share our approach to care. Call us on 01892 577680, email [email protected], or visit our website to find out more; https://braeburncare.co.uk

Taking time to connect with our local business community.

Last week, our CEO Harriet attended the Make It Your Business event, joining a room full of local women in business to connect, share experiences and hear from an inspiring panel of female business leaders.

One message in particular stood out: building a business without losing yourself.

Running and growing a business can make it very easy to become consumed by the day-to-day. Taking time away to hear different perspectives, make new connections and reflect on the bigger picture can be incredibly valuable.

At Braeburn Care, we’re proud to be part of the Tunbridge Wells business community and to continue building relationships with other local businesses and organisations as we grow.

Thank you to Debbie Waite (Leadership Coach) for bringing together another great group of women in our local community.

Sometimes, feeling good really can start with something as simple as freshly painted nails. 💅

During a recent care and companionship visit, one of our Care Professionals took the time to give a customer a manicure in the comfort of her own home.

For her family, it was something they simply weren’t in a position to do themselves. For our customer, it meant dedicated one-to-one time, conversation and the chance to enjoy something just for her.

As we get older, the things that make us feel confident, valued and like ourselves don’t suddenly become less important.

That’s why companionship care can be about far more than simply having someone there. It can mean making time for the interests, routines and activities that bring enjoyment and connection to someone’s week.

Our latest blog explores why identity and self-esteem still matter in later life, and how meaningful companionship can complement the support families already provide. 👉 Read the full blog here: https://braeburncare.co.uk/companionship-care-for-older-people-why-feeling-like-yourself-still-matters/
