Specialist Healthcare Tasks

At Sphere Specialist Healthcare we recognise the desire to be cared for at home instead of having to go into hospital. The shift in social care is for more and more tasks to be carried out at home by care and support staff or family members than ever before. We understand that although this is preferential it can also cause a little apprehension. We have a team of professionals including nurses from various specialities and an occupational therapist who all have much experience of delivering complex care in the community. Their goal is to ensure both the client and their family are comfortable with and confident in the care delivered. We provide training to extremely high standards to ensure that our support workers have not just the skill in carrying out tasks, but the knowledge that underpins them to ensure this care is always delivered safely. Our team of professionals will develop a bespoke care plan around the clients needs and preferences in relation to these specialised tasks and work alongside support staff for periods of time until everyone is comfortable for the support worker to work independently. Our professionals are always on hand to answer any questions that the client, family or our support workers may have to ensure everyone is comfortable giving and receiving care.
