The GoodOaks Homecare Brentwood and Chelmsford team was at the Bay Tree Centre in Brentwood on Thursday 5 November, from 9am to 5pm, meeting local residents and answering questions about homecare.
Finding out about homecare can feel like a big step, and it’s not always easy to know who to ask. That’s why we took the conversation to the high street.
On Thursday 5 November, the GoodOaks Homecare Brentwood and Chelmsford team was at the Bay Tree Centre in Brentwood, next to Poundland, meeting people and chatting about the support available locally.
It was a great way to engage with the local community at the Baytree shopping centre where we gave out free health checks and goodies to all the lovely people we spoke with. We had a fantastic time and hope to see you all again soon.
A chance to chat about homecare
Our team spent the day on the stand, answering questions and helping visitors understand their options. There was no need to book and no obligation to make any decisions.
Whether visitors were worried about a parent, planning ahead for themselves or simply curious about how homecare works, we were happy to talk.
Questions we helped with
Some of the topics we discussed included:
- The different types of care, from a weekly visiting care to live-in care
- How homecare is arranged and what happens on the first visit
- Support for people living with dementia and their families
- Getting the right support in place after a hospital stay
- Care opportunities with GoodOaks in Brentwood and Chelmsford
