An important factor in enabling someone to stay in their own homes is ensuring they receive an adequate diet. Sometimes carers feels like they are being pulled in 4 directions at once. So this section aims to help them find services that ease the stress on them enabling them to care for longer and their loved ones to stay at home for as long as is appropriate.
Here you will find meal providers who can deliver warm food to your loved ones during the day enabling you as the carer to have some stress free time away from your caring duties. As well as information on the different meals, and how differing dietary requirements can be catered to.
You will also find links to financial advice services that may be able to help you and your loved one when it comes to paying for the meal delivery.
