It’s A Domestic Life: Stan’s Story with Acacia Homecare

It’s A Domestic Life: Stan’s Story with Acacia Homecare

Meet Stan, a lively 93-year-old who has been an Acacia Homecare customer since January 2017. Residing in Sunbury, Surrey, Stan first noticed our Acacia Angels while they were out and about in the community. Curious and in need of a little extra support around the house, he approached the daughter of one of our other customers, who was already helping him with his garden, to ask about Acacia Homecare.

Realising he needed more help with household duties, Stan decided to give Acacia Homecare a call, having received a glowing recommendation.

Tailoring Stan’s Care Package

With Stan’s input and a thorough risk assessment, his personalised care package was developed. Stan’s care primarily involves domestic support, where our Acacia Angels assist him with tasks like making his bed, washing up, and drying and putting away dishes on a daily basis. Additionally, he has a regular cleaner who visits him every two weeks to help maintain his home.

Stan’s regular carers, like Kimberley, enjoy visiting him. “Stan is well-mannered and likes you to be punctual!” Kimberley shared, adding that Stan always greets them with a smile.

A Happy Home with Acacia Angels

Stan truly enjoys the time he spends with his Acacia Angels and has even recommended Acacia Homecare to a neighbor who may need support in the future. “I am very happy with the carers, and I always get big smiles from them,” Stan said. “They help keep me company, and the office staff are efficient and helpful.”
