Ten years of Oakhaven Care Ltd Established just over ten years ago as a social enterprise and wholly owned subsidiary of The Oakhaven Trust, Oakhaven Care Ltd now provides 24-hour ‘live-in’ care in addition to ‘visiting’ home care - and each year contributes to the funding of Oakhaven Hospice. Oakhaven Care Ltd was born out of the desire to create a care agency for the wider community that would have the same consistently highquality standards of care as Oakhaven Hospice. At the same time, to provide income to help fund the specialist palliative and end-of-life care at Oakhaven Hospice. The idea, to run home care as a social enterprise and wholly-owned subsidiary of The Oakhaven Trust, was innovative and unique. A decade on, Oakhaven Care Ltd remains the only home care organisation in the area that funnels all its profits into a local charity rather than into the pockets of investors! Today, Oakhaven Care Ltd provides 24-hour live-in care in addition to visiting care (which can range from 30-minute ‘drop-ins’ to multiple daily visits). Care is tailored to the needs and wishes of each client, helping them to remain independent with companionship and support in the comfort of their own home. Oakhaven Care Assistants can provide help with daily life including personal care; support with medication, nutrition and fluids; help with getting up and going to bed; light domestic duties; and outings to appointments, shops and social activities. Live-in care provides full-time support, companionship - and ADVERTISING FEATURE reassurance for loved ones. It can be an excellent alternative to having to move into a residential care home, providing more independence and choice, in familiar surroundings. Becky Prince has worked with Oakhaven Care for nine out of its ten years. Starting as a Care Assistant, she is now a Manager, based in Lymington. “It is great to see how the business has grown over the years. We now have over fifty carers and an office in Totton as well as the one in Lymington. In addition to visiting care, we also now offer 24-hour live-in care for clients. Above all, Oakhaven Care’s strong link with Oakhaven Hospice means so much to all of us. Carers and clients alike, we are all proud of the fact that we support Oakhaven Hospice.” A family member of an Oakhaven Care client said; “I will always remember how you cared for Mum with friendship, laughter and dignity.
