Strand Nurses Bureau: Respite care in the UK

Strand Nurses Bureau

Strand Nurses Bureau is an experienced provider of high quality nursing and care services which they deliver to individuals in their own homes. They specialise in delivering an array of bespoke care services including; live-in care, care of the elderly, respite and holiday care, home nursing care, complex care, personal care, hospital-to-home care, palliative care and social companionship services.


Respite care in the UK 

Established in 1974, Strand Nurses Bureau is well known for providing excellent care, total discretion and a personally tailored care service to elderly individuals. They offer a care at home service that gives you the choice to remain independent, in the comfort of your own home, without compromising on quality of care.


Strand Nurses Bureau's respite care service allows primary carers, family members or friends to take time away from their everyday duties to relax, go on holiday or just have a few hours break safe in the knowledge that their loved one is being cared for by experienced Nurses, Healthcare Assistants or Support Workers.

 

They understand that caring for a loved one can be extremely demanding and can often have an adverse effect on your own health as you try to juggle everyday life with supporting your loved one. Everybody needs a break from time to time and caregivers are no exception to this.

 

If you provide care for someone and you are planning a holiday or just a break from caring for some much needed respite, they can provide a high quality care service to your dependent whilst you are away or resting. They can afford you the peace of mind to unwind and recuperate, knowing your dependent will continue to receive the care and support that they need.

Nursing care

 

Hospital-to-Home

Whether you have already left hospital after your operation, or would like Strand Nurses Bureau to participate in planning your care needs before admission, their qualified, friendly experts are there to help.

With their Clinical Nurse Managers at your disposal, their Hospital-to-Home programme provides you with a service that is tailored exactly to your needs. This may mean a daily short visit or round-the-clock, complex care for specific conditions. Whatever your requirements, they are there to ensure that your recovery is speedy, comfortable and above all, in the comfort of your own home.


They usually begin planning with yourself, your GP and, or Consultant before your admission to hospital. This ensures that their staff completely understand your care needs and can agree in advance with you and your Consultant or GP, the best plan of care. Following your stay, their Nurses and Carers will help transfer you home and take care of you in accordance with your pre-agreed care plan.


Palliative care

At this difficult and sensitive time, Strand Nurses Bureau can provide staff to maximise comfort and reassurance for you as well as your family and friends.


Wound care

Their Nurses and Carers can visit as often as required to change dressings or care for wounds. Because you can arrange visits to suit your schedule, it provides a very convenient alternative to traditional visits.


Injection or medication service

Whether you need a one-off injection, a course of medication, or you require complex medication on a long-term basis, they can provide staff who can visit your home at times to suit you to deliver injections which may enable you to return home from hospital earlier than would otherwise have been safe. Services include:

  • Vitamin injections
  • IVF treatment 
  • Diabetes / Insulin injections

  

Respite care

For those times when your regular carers are on holiday or are unable to provide your care, they can supply staff to offer respite care.

They can fit into your usual schedules so your routine is not disturbed and will make sure that they understand your preferences and care plan to maintain your existing quality of care.

Respite care can be provided on an hourly through to live-in basis for either one day, or on a longer term basis, as required.
