Here at Sunday Care Therapy we maybe a little bias when it comes to Occupational Therapy, considering we are founded and run by OT’s

But when it comes to providing care for individuals who need assistance with daily activities, the role of Occupational Therapists cannot be understated.

As Occupational Therapists we are trained professionals who specialise in helping individuals regain, develop, or maintain their independence and functionality in their daily lives.

Our expertise in assessing and addressing physical, cognitive, and emotional challenges makes us uniquely qualified to manage live-in care. Having an Occupational Therapist manage live-in carers brings a multitude of benefits to both the staff and the clients.

As Sunday Care Therapy we ensure our OTs are trained to take a holistic approach to care. They consider not only the physical aspects of a person’s well-being but also their cognitive, emotional, and social needs. By managing live-in carers, Occupational Therapists can ensure that all aspects of the care recipient’s life are taken into account, resulting in a comprehensive and personalised care plan.

Our OT’s understand that each person has unique needs and preferences. We can assess our clients abilities, limitations, and goals and create a customised care plan that maximises your independence and quality of life. We work closely with the live-in carers to implement and adjust the plan as needed, ensuring that the care provided is tailored to the individual.

One of our unique ways of working at Sunday Care Therapy is highly skilled, highly qualified rehabilitation and skill development. We can identify areas where you may need support and design interventions to improve your functional abilities. Whether it’s regaining mobility after an injury or learning new techniques for daily tasks, your Sunday Care Therapy Occupational Therapist can guide your live-in carers in implementing therapeutic strategies that promote progress and independence.

As a result all our staff are highly trained and skilled.  Having an OT as the lead ensures that all staff receive ongoing training, guidance, and support. Our OT’s can educate your Care Partner on individual and specific techniques, equipment,strategies to enhance your well-being and provide emotional support to all.

It really is a win win! 

Not only does Sunday Care Therapy now provide OT lead live-in care, but the way we do it is also very different to the industry norm.

Your goals are our goals, from big goals like getting back out to the community, maybe even a cheeky Sunday 😬 pub lunch to even bigger goals like, “I would just like to be able to sit in my chair again”

Having an OT shape and managing your at home care needs really does make a difference!

For us nothing is impossible, there is always a way to adapt to achieve!

Managing your personalised live-in carers with the involvement of one of our OT’s ensures continuity of care. Our OT’s can oversee the care provided, monitor progress, and make adjustments as needed. We also coordinate with other healthcare professionals, such as GP’s social services and the NHS, to ensure a cohesive and collaborative approach overall making sure you are getting the support you deserve!

We ensure we are your advocates, empowering you to take control of your life and make informed decisions about your care, overall making sure your voice is heard, choices are respected, and rights are upheld.

Our OT lead person-centered approach fosters independence, dignity, and a sense of empowerment.

In our opinion and from experience, having an OT manage live-in carers brings a unique set of skills and perspectives to the caregiving process. Sunday Care Therapy’s expertise in holistic care, individualised approaches, rehabilitation, and support for your carer partner ensures that you receive the highest quality of care and support.

By bringing in our knowledge and guidance, live-in carers can do what it needs to do, take the burden of care off you and your loved ones while prescribing some smiles.

This is different!
