Adult & Disability Wellbeing
At Right at Home, we believe that care goes beyond the home. Wherever possible, we encourage and support our Clients to be part of their local community. Whether it’s a trip to the hairdressers, a coffee afternoon, or a weekly crafts club, we’re here to help our Clients enjoy an active, fulfilling lifestyle.
Our goal is to maintain a high quality of life, not just through personal care but by supporting social wellbeing and independence.
The Importance of Social Interaction
Staying physically active and eating well are essential for a healthy life. But social interaction is just as important—especially for the elderly and people living with disabilities. Unfortunately, studies show that 45% of adults in England feel lonely, with older people being among the most vulnerable.Loneliness doesn’t just affect mental wellbeing; it’s also linked to serious physical health risks—including heart disease, stroke, dementia, and depression. Some experts say the risks of loneliness rival those of obesity and smoking.
The good news is: loneliness can be tackled.
Loneliness and Mental Health
Elderly or disabled people may become isolated due to health issues, reduced mobility, or the loss of close friends or family. Some may even find it hard to communicate, making it even more difficult to connect with others.Our CareGivers do more than offer support—they build genuine friendships. Whether it’s through conversation, shared activities, or simply being there to listen, they help Clients feel valued and less alone.
By providing companionship and encouraging engagement, we aim to reduce the emotional and cognitive effects of loneliness.
