We provide a range of services designed to meet individual needs. To give a flavour of what we do, we have put together some examples of the different types of care packages we can offer.

Mrs A lives with her father, who suffers from Alzheimer's Disease. Mrs A takes care of her father with the assistance of her family. However, she finds the role demanding and at times exhausting. She uses Cloud 9 to enable her to take a break when she needs to. Our team have got to know her father well and we know his routines. Mrs A is able to go away for a week, a few days or just have a day out, knowing her father is in safe hands

Mr B suffered a stroke 5 years ago and Cloud 9 began caring for him when he first left hospital. He initially had an extensive care package to meet his needs, but as time passed and his condition improved we reduced the level of care to promote Mr B's independence. He now just has help from us for domestic support and to supervise his weekly bath.

Mrs C lives on her own but has short term memory problems. Her family are supportive but live a long distance away. Cloud 9 visit her each morning as she finishes her breakfast. The carer will supervise her medication and check her diary with her. They will open the post together and deal with any issues that may arise. Together we have developed a number of strategies to help Mrs C remain safely at home

Mrs D lives in her own home and is still very independent, despite her failing eyesight. Her family are concerned that she will soon need help with her personal care, but she will be reluctant to accept this. In order to help Mrs D to become used to having carers, Cloud 9 visit her once a week to help her with a bath. The carer always stays for a coffee and a chat, and Mrs D is now confident that when she needs more help it will not be such a frightening prospect.

Mrs E has lived in sheltered accommodation for many years. Following a stroke she is now unable to stand, but wishes to remain in her home. Cloud 9 send 2 staff to her 3 times a day, to assist with her personal care, to prepare meals and to keep the flat clean.

Mr F retired to this area, but now lives a long way from his family. Although they visit as often as they can, they wish they could do more. So the family have arranged for a Cloud 9 carer to visit at lunchtime each day. The carer prepares a meal for him and stays with him while he eats. Sometimes they take him out for a short walk along the promenade in his wheelchair. Mr F's family are reassured that he is having a hot meal each day and he has someone to talk to.
