We specialize in providing a high standard of service to care for elderly individuals who require constant supervision on an ongoing basis.

Home-Based care

Home-based care is exactly what it says, caring for people in the comfort of their home by a qualified nurse/caregiver under the supervision of a registered nurse.

When a person reaches a stage of immobility, or brain functioning has deteriorated to a stage when it becomes difficult to survive without the assistance of someone else, the time has arrived to make use of Home-based care.

It is usually very difficult for a person whose brain functions have declined to be accommodated into a nursing home. In their own home they would be surrounded by what they are used to while they only need to accept the friendly caregiver helping them to cope. The patient would still be busy with his daily routine accompanied by a caregiver 24 hours a day.

The caregiver may assist in all the daily tasks e.g. cooking, bathing, laundry, exercises, controlling medication, controlling vital signs, wound care, supporting rehabilitation, nail care, house cleaning and see that the patient enjoys a well-balanced meal on a daily basis.

Even though the Elderly homes or other facilities are very good, they simply cannot provide all the 24hour services 2Care4you is able to provide.

Frail Care

What is Frail Care?

Ecclesiastes 12:1 in the Bible says “Remember now your Creator in the days of you youth. Before the difficult days come. And the years draw near when you say, I have no pleasure in them”.

Becoming older is a fact and for some it is sooner than they anticipated. It is never easy.

Frail care arrives when a person is unable to look after himself and needs someone else to assist in his daily living. Some people become physically or mentally frail, suffered an accident or becomes bedridden and requires constant supervision and assistance with daily activities.

It is therefore designed for people who are physically or mentally frail and may be bedridden or cognitively impaired.

We have a heart for those who are to weak to look after themselves.

Therefore we tend to all their needs.
