🌟 Reimagining Domiciliary Care: An App to Empower Carers and Elevate Client Wellbeing 🌟 Domiciliary care professionals know all too well the hurdles of supporting individuals in their own homes. From detecting subtle health changes to ensuring consistent training across diverse carer teams, every day presents new complexities. Many agencies struggle with: ⚠️ Early Detection of Decline Subtle warning signs of conditions like delirium, dehydration, or infection can be missed without a standardised approach. 🎓 Variable Training With carers coming from different backgrounds, ensuring a uniform skill set can be difficult. ⏰ Lack of Real-Time Support Working in isolation often means carers must make urgent decisions without immediate backup. Our Vision: A Groundbreaking Digital Tool Dr. Kirsten Protherough and Liz Black Lock (founder of Lapis Care) are determined to address these challenges with a purpose-built app, designed by carers for carers.
