Learn how integrating technology, specialised care professionals and personalised, sustainable services supports the Redbridge elderly care needs.

GoodOaks Woodford Supports Redbridge Elderly Care with Innovation

Over 12% of Redbridge’s population is now 65 years old and over according to the latest census.

GoodOaks Homecare in Woodford Green is playing a crucial role in aligning with Redbridge Council’s latest trends and initiatives for the Redbridge’s elderly care.

As a sustainability-focused homecare provider, we offer high-quality care services that complement the council’s broader goals of supporting elderly residents and their care professionals. Here’s how GoodOaks is contributing:

  1. Adoption of innovative care technology: we incorporate advanced technology solutions to enhance the quality of its care services. Through the use of remote monitoring tools and digital care records, we ensure that our care teams are equipped with real-time data to provide timely and effective support. This approach aligns with Redbridge Council’s focus on using technologies like 4D mapping and motion sensors to monitor vulnerable residents and prevent falls.
  2. Support for care professionals and staff: we are known for our emphasis on employee well-being and professional development, which resonates with Redbridge’s updated Carers Strategy. We offer flexible working hours, regular training sessions and mental health support for its staff, ensuring that care teams are well-supported and prepared to handle the complexities of homecare. This focus helps reduce staff burnout and ensures that elderly residents receive high-quality, consistent care.

3. Focus on preventative and personalised care: our person-centred approach involves working closely with families to create bespoke care plans that address the unique needs of each client. By providing holistic care that includes social interaction, health monitoring and emotional support, we help to reduce hospital admissions and encourage independent living—key priorities in Redbridge’s new digital strategy for adult social care. Redbridge recently received £1 million in funding from the Government’s Adult Social Care Technology Fund to support its digital strategy. The funding will be used to help people live longer and healthier lives and to reduce pressure on the NHS.

4. Sustainability and community involvement: in line with our commitment to sustainability and community engagement, we at GoodOaks – Woodford Green actively, collaborate with local organisations and health partners. This community-centric approach supports Redbridge’s ambition to build robust support systems for its growing elderly population.

Overall, our Woodford Green branch is well-positioned to help Redbridge Council achieve our vision for a modern, efficient and compassionate care system for elderly residents. Through our commitment to innovative care delivery, comprehensive support for care professionals and sustainable practices, we are making a positive impact in the local community.
