What does a Personal Care service include?
Managing a client's daily needs can lead to significant caregiver stress and family burden. Whether it is Alzheimer's and dementia care or stroke care, we are here to ensure your family receives the emotional support and respite they deserve. Our services adhere to strict CQC-rated standards, ensuring every aspect of care—from hygiene and nutrition to palliative care—is delivered with the highest levels of safety, dignity, and respect for the individual. By integrating our support, we ensure that both the client and their family receive the emotional support and respite they deserve.
What is Personal Care?
Personal care is a professional, dignified service designed to support clients with the essential daily routines required to maintain independence, comfort, and wellbeing within their own homes. Unlike task-based assistance, our approach is person-centred; it focuses on empowering the client to live with confidence while providing family members with essential respite and emotional relief. By entrusting these daily needs to our skilled team, you can confidently return to your roles as family members rather than full-time caregivers.

We offer respectful assistance with daily clothing choices and personal grooming. These vital tasks help our clients maintain their self-esteem, independence, and a sense of identity.
Mobility and Transfer Help

True Homecare delivers CQC-rated, personalised live-in and personal care rooted in dignity, respect, and clinical professionalism. Beyond our years of hands-on experience, we strictly adhere to Stockport Council's Ethical Framework, working in seamless partnership with local healthcare professionals. Our service is aligned with the rigorous standards of the Homecare Association and the Royal College of Nursing (RCN) guidelines. This commitment ensures that all staff are fully trained to deliver safe, expert care, with complex clinical packages overseen by qualified Registered Nurses (RNs).
Delivering Perfection in 24-Hour Live-in Care
We are deeply committed to delivering compassionate, high-quality 24-hour live-in care across the region. True Homecare is proud to have achieved a ‘Good’ rating from the Care Quality Commission (CQC). Our clients’ safety, dignity, and wellbeing are our absolute top priorities, and we strive for regulated excellence in everything we do, every single day. To achieve this, we invest heavily in our workforce—employing staff with recognised UK healthcare qualifications and providing specialized training that mirrors RCN best practices.

Alzheimer and Dementia Care
We actively manage the complexities of memory-related health conditions so they can maintain their routine securely and happily at home, while providing family members with the essential respite and emotional support they deserve.
Routine is critical. Our dedicated team structures support around the client's existing habits to minimise confusion, reduce anxiety, and create a calm, stable environment.
For dementia, one caregiver serves the client; because if there is a new carer, they cannot monitor and diagnose a client’s health condition with consistency. Our staff undergo rigorous, specialized training. We manage symptoms like sundowning, assist with cognitive stimulation, and ensure medications are taken safely in liaison with GPs and pharmacists.
Caring for a relative with memory loss is emotionally and physically exhausting. Our flexible care whether providing 24-hour support, waking nights, or sleeping nights gives family caregivers crucial time to rest and recharge, knowing the client is in safe, professional hands.
Private Respite Care at Home
Need a temporary break from caregiving? Our private, CQC-rated respite care at home provides short-term, professional relief. We step in seamlessly to ensure the client remains safe and comfortable, allowing family members to rest, and recharge.
We mirror your exact caregiving routine. From medication schedules to preferred meal times, our professional team ensures a flawless handover so the client feels secure. We also provide support for Parkinson's clients and those needing palliative care
Whether you need a few hours a week, emergency overnight support, or full live-in cover for a holiday, our bespoke packages adapt to your schedule. Our team comprises skilled professionals, care managers, care coordinators, and caregivers who are experts in palliative home care.
Step away knowing your relative is supported by rigorously vetted, clinically trained experts. We adhere to the Ethical Framework by Stockport Council and work alongside other healthcare professionals like district nurses, GPs, hospitals, and pharmacists to manage all care—including companionship and End-of-Life Care—giving you the true emotional break you deserve.
