How we help – live in and homecare support for social activity and as a companion

Keeping track of your diary

Q. I am getting a bit forgetful and would like some help with checking on what I have planned for the next few days/weeks. Can my helper keep an eye on this for me?

A. Your helper is there to help with whatever you need.  Jotting things down in your diary or reminding you when things come up is very much part of their role.  Some people have a wall diary that shows what has been arranged - your helper can check it each day to remind you what you have planned.
