Miranda Smith Homecare provides quality home-based care for the elderly, disabled and those convalescing in the Auckland, Northland, Bay of Plenty, Hawkes Bay, Wellington, Nelson, Blenheim and Canterbury regions. Miranda Smith Homecare was established in 1999, making it the longest operating private agency in the country. Since then it has gone on to develop a reputation as an outstanding team providing excellence in care.
We will provide help within the home. Carers will assist with getting up and going to bed, washing, bathing, dressing and personal hygiene. Help may also include; light housekeeping, laundry and ironing. We are happy to cook, shop, drive and escort clients on outings.
The quality care we provide allows clients a continued independence and ability to live in their own home. We are able to develop ongoing care plans suited to the individual needs of the client, and adapt them as required to maintain this independence.
We also provide a Hospital Discharge service providing safe, reliable, private transport home from hospital and 2 - 24 hour care and support at home following discharge. Our caregivers will provide assistance with packing & loading of belongings at the hospital, ensure collection of prescriptions, complete a light grocery shop, settle client at home with food and fluids, ensure next of kin is advised client is home, safe and comfortable and informed of any post-discharge instructions and follow-up appointments. Provision of personal cars and home help as required.
With Miranda Smith Homecare there is a 24 hour phone service. If a client needs help, support or advice at any time there is always someone to call. We can provide carers during the day or night, for either short or long-term placements.
"At a time when we were feeling very helpless and could not control our family member's care from a distance, Miranda Smith Homecare provided what we could not give her. We very much appreciated your services and were very pleased with your concern, the level of care provided and the professional manner in which everything was handled. Thank you!"
