Following illness or injury, you may need care and support to help you regain your independence in your home. We support our customers who require reablement services, for example, following a stay in hospital when you require support through your transition from hospital to your own home.
Reablement is different to traditional home care services; our Advantage Care reablement teams are trained with specific skills to encourage your return to independence. Our teams are also trained to recognise the emotional impact that illness or injury has on you, your family and friends. We provide focus on your development of robust coping skills for dealing with emotions that reablement can bring out during recovery, aiming for you to get your confidence and independence back as quickly as possible.

Our team will help you do the things such getting dressed, preparing a meal, or getting up and down stairs. They might care for you at first, but will help you practise doing things on your own.
This kind of care could consist of visits from medical professionals like occupational therapists, physiotherapist, a speech and language therapist,
a social worker and carers. It can imply that specialised devices or adaptations, like as grab bars and higher toilet seats, are installed in the home. Reablement improves people’s outcomes and gives them back the capacity to carry out regular domestic chores. As a result, their quality of life is enhanced, and there is less need for long-term carers.
