Eileen’s Case Study
Eileen had complex care needs and her family were looking for round-the-clock care for her at home. They needed someone who understood Eileen’s needs and who could give her the care she needed throughout the day and night.
GoodOaks worked with Eileen’s daughter to produce a care plan shaped around her requirements. GoodOaks’ aim was to match Eileen with a highly experienced care professional who had additional training in specialist care. We matched the family with Paula who had a huge amount of experience and understanding of Eileen’s specific needs. Paula moved in with the family on a live-in basis and was able to fulfil the role, catering for Eileen’s complex needs.
Paula continues to work with the family who are feeling a lot less anxious knowing that Eileen’s care is being handled professionally.Â
“ We felt a huge amount of relief as soon as Paula came to stay. She anticipated exactly what Eileen needed and had the skills to undertake the best care for her.’

Find out more about homecare
Specialist care refers to care services that are provided to people with specific needs that aren’t covered under general care. We provide specialist care to people with medical issues, whether they be mental health or physical health conditions. Our care professionals have been given training in areas such as dementia care, after-stroke care, learning disabilities and physical disabilities.
Specialist care is for anyone whose care requirements go beyond what is normally expected from a live-in or visiting carer. So, if you have limited mobility, physical or learning disabilities, a medical condition which affects your quality of life and hinders your ability to look after yourself or any other issues that require a specialist approach, we can help.
Yes, all of our specialist care givers have been appropriately trained to deal with complex care issues, are Dignity in Care registered and are regulated by the CQC.
