- Our Childen's Services Testimonials | Westwood Homecare
Read heartfelt testimonials from families and professionals about our children and young people’s care services. Про нас Discover the first-hand experiences of the people who use our service. Their words highlight the compassionate care and support we provide, offering a glimpse into how we make a meaningful difference in the lives of our clients and their families. “As a parent of a child with special needs, finding the right support and care for my child has always been a priority. The services provided by Westwood Homecare have been nothing short of life-changing. The team is incredibly compassionate, patient, and understanding. They take the time to truly understand each child’s unique needs, tailoring their approach to provide the best possible care and support. My child has been more settled and engaging since we started using these services. With the carers, I feel my child is safe, valued, and enjoys his time out. What sets Westwood apart is the unwavering commitment to empowering both children and their families. They’ve given us the help and encouragement we needed to help our child thrive. I cannot recommend their services enough for any family navigating the challenges of raising a child with special needs. They truly make a difference!” Parent Testimonial Everything is going really well for me, thanks to the carers, Amy, and Raymond, who truly listen to my perspective and make an effort to understand our needs. My children, face challenges with communication and use different methods at school and home. One communicates using symbols and photos on a blackboard, while the other relies on a symbol book. At home, however, they both use gestures, actions, and choices to express themselves, which the carers have adapted to seamlessly. Both of my children have unique personalities and preferences—one is more active, and the carer keeps him engaged and moving, while the other enjoys quieter activities, which the carers accommodate. In the past, other carers struggled to understand my children’s needs and communication styles, often leading to frustration. Westwood carers, however, are patient and genuinely work to understand my children’s feelings. Beyond the carers, Amy and Raymond have been a tremendous help, speaking with our social worker and finding additional ways to support us. Whenever I need to step out, I feel completely reassured knowing my children are safe, happy, and well cared for at home. Parent Testimonial Fantastic team who supported us through an extremely difficult time, professional, respectful and extremely efficient. Would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone. Family Member Testimonial I am a Children with Disability Social Worker. I use Westwood Homecare to support a couple of young people on my case load who have complex needs. Westwood Homecare have been integral in ensuring children have their needs met, risks reduced at home and importantly, support parents in their caring role. Westwood works in partnership with families to accommodate needs and make changes when needed. Approachable and competitively priced service.

Поширені запитання Frequently asked questions Training Specialist Care Adult and Elderly Care Children and Young People Mental Health and Vulnerable Adults General What is the Care Certificate? The Care Certificate is an identified set of standards that health and social care workers adhere to in their daily working life. Designed with the non-regulated workforce in mind, the Care Certificate gives everyone the confidence that workers have the same introductory skills, knowledge and behaviours to provide compassionate, safe and high quality care and support. What does the Care Certificate Cover? The Care Certificate consists of the following 15 Standards: 1. Understand Your Role 2. Your Personal Development 3. Duty of Care 4. Equality and Diversity 5. Work in a Person-Centred Way 6. Communication 7. Privacy and Dignity 8. Fluids and Nutrition 9. Awareness of Mental Health, Dementia and Learning Disabilities 10. Safeguarding Adults 11. Safeguarding Children 12. Basic Life Support 13. Health and Safety 14. Handling Information 15. Infection Prevention and Control Does the Care Certificate replace staff induction? No. The Care Certificate is part of a structured induction but does not replace all of the learning required for staff induction. As well as the Care Certificate standards new staff will be expected to have information, knowledge and competencies specific to the environment in which care will be provided. For example, new staff may receive information on how to report accidents, and what to do in case of fire which will be specific to the location in which they work. The Care Certificate programme will not focus on the skills and knowledge needed to work safely and effectively in a particular location. The content of this remains the employer’s responsibility. Is the award of the Care Certificate based only on knowledge? No, to be awarded the Care Certificate the person must acquire knowledge and demonstrate competence in all 15 standards. Assessment of knowledge and understanding is prefixed with verbs such as ‘describe’, ‘explain’, ‘define’, ‘list’ or ‘identify’ and can be based upon written or verbal evidence such as a workbook, written questions, case studies or sound files. Evidence of performance prefixed with words such as ‘demonstrate’, ‘take steps to’, ‘use’ or ‘show’ must be undertaken in the workplace during learners’ real work activity and observed by the assessor (unless the use of simulation is specifically allowed). Learners can practice and develop their skills in a classroom or similar setting but most of the assessment evidence must be collected during real work activity. How long does it take to complete the Care Certificate? During the piloting of the Care Certificate in 2014, the indication was that for a full-time member of staff, the average amount of time taken to complete the Care Certificate was 12 weeks. It is likely that employers will find that the time taken to complete the certificate will vary depending upon a range of factors, including; the hours worked by the learner, teaching methods chosen, previous educational achievement, resources and opportunities for assessment, and the availability of assessors Does WHC supply any additional courses? Yes, WHC offers a range of accredited courses which are mandatory for all employees to complete: • Medication • Pressure Ulcer Awareness • Catheter and Stoma Awareness • Level 2 Principles of End-of-Life Care • Level 2 Moving and Handling of People • Level 2 Positive Behavioural Approach
