Domiciliary Care
Domiciliary care is for people that live in their own homes but require additional support with household tasks, personal care, doctor or hospital visits, or any other activities that allow them to maintain their independence and quality of life.
Domiciliary care can be provided to anyone at any stage of life – post a hospital stay, at the onset of mental health problems, or once sensory impairment or physical disabilities have developed. Further, domiciliary care is tailored to your needs and schedule. It can range from a visit once a day for an hour to full live-in home care (in which a carer is with you day and night).
After engaging Tetbury Elite Care and undergoing our care assessment, you receive a care plan unique to your needs and condition. Our care plans take into account your existing routine and works around your schedules. In addition, carers that are best suited to your needs and personality are assigned to you.

- Mental Health
Mental health care is a care program given to an individual who has realized the deficit of his or her own abilities to cope with the normal stresses of life and can’t work productively and fruitfully, and is unable to make a contribution to his or her community. Good mental health includes "subjective well-being, perceived self-efficacy, autonomy, competence, intergenerational dependence, and self-actualization of one's intellectual and emotional potential, among others". From the perspectives of positive psychology or of holism, mental health may include an individual's ability to enjoy life and to create a balance between life activities and efforts to achieve psychological resilience. Cultural differences, subjective assessments, and competing professional theories all affect how one determines their "mental health state". - Eating disorders
Eating disorders are a range of psychological conditions that cause unhealthy eating habits to develop. They might start with an obsession with food, body weight, or body shape.
Although the term eating is in the name, eating disorders are about more than food. They’re complex mental health conditions that often require the intervention of medical and psychological experts to alter their course.
These disorders are described in the American Psychiatric Association’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, fifth edition (DSM-5).
They include:
Anorexia nervosa
Bulimia nervosa
Binge eating disorder
Pica
Rumination disorder
Avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder - Learning difficulty
A learning difficulty is a condition that can cause an individual to experience problems in a traditional classroom learning context. It's not uncommon for learning difficulties and motor-skills difficulties to co-present. For example, dyslexia and dyspraxia, or ADD/ADHD and dyspraxia can occur together. - Dementia
Dementia is a collective term used to describe various symptoms of cognitive decline, such as forgetfulness. It is a symptom of several underlying diseases and brain disorders. Dementia is not a single disease in itself, but a general term to describe symptoms of impairment in memory, communication, and thinking. - Physical Disability
A physical disability is a physical condition that affects a person's mobility, physical capacity, stamina, or dexterity. This can include brain or spinal cord injuries, multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy, respiratory disorders, epilepsy, hearing and visual impairments and more.
