🌈 Happy Pride from Ivy Homecare

At Ivy Homecare, we believe everyone deserves to feel valued, respected, and able to be themselves — whether that’s our carers or the people we support 💙

Inclusion is at the heart of great care. When people feel safe and understood, we can deliver truly person-centred support.

This Pride Month, we’re proud to celebrate diversity and stand together for a culture where everyone belongs.

☀️ Summer is officially heating up with a heatwave on the way again! 🔥

Let’s enjoy the sunshine while keeping cool and safe:

💧 Stay hydrated—drink water regularly (don’t wait until you’re thirsty!)
👕 Wear loose, lightweight, and light-coloured clothing
🚿 Take cool showers or baths to lower your body temp
💤 Get plenty of rest and avoid overly strenuous activities
👯‍♀️ Check in on friends and loved ones—it’s better together!

Let’s make the most of the sunshine safely. 😎☀️

💙 Carers Week: Meet Angella 💙

Angella has been a valued part of the Ivy Homecare family for 3 years, and in that time she has achieved so much. From administering medication and delivering person-centred care, to supporting with personal care and more specialist tasks such as changing catheters – Angella’s dedication truly makes a difference every day.

Her love and passion for helping others is what drew her into care, and it shines through in everything she does.

Outside of work, Angella enjoys listening to gospel music and spending quality time having fun with her children 💙

Thank you, Angella, for your commitment, compassion and the care you provide to others – you’re an inspiration this Carers Week.

Outside of work, Adam is a big football fan and is especially excited for the World Cup this month ⚽

🌿 Meet Sheila – Founder of Ivy Homecare 🌿

With 15+ years of experience in both the NHS and private healthcare, Sheila turned her passion for care into her own business, Ivy Homecare. 💙

"I have a passion for looking after people. I get great satisfaction working with our customers and delivering an outstanding level of care that I myself would personally expect for my own mother."

When she's not leading her incredible team, Sheila loves country walks, gardening, and spending time with her family.

Let's celebrate the dedication of carers like Sheila, who make a real difference every single day! 🌟

💙 It’s Volunteers’ Week 💙

This week, we’re celebrating the incredible people who give their time, kindness and compassion to support others in our communities.

At Ivy Homecare, we see every day the difference that caring hearts can make — whether it’s offering companionship, a helping hand, or simply being there when it matters most.

To every volunteer out there: thank you. You help create stronger, more connected communities, and your impact never goes unnoticed.

Finding the right caregiver can feel overwhelming, but these top tips can make the process smoother! 💙✨

✔ Understand your home care needs – Do you need help with household tasks like shopping, or do you need more one-on-one support? ✔ Involve family in the process – Even small weekly support from family can help you plan what additional care is needed. ✔ Prepare a job description – Be honest about your expectations to ensure you find the right person. ✔ Talk to others who’ve been through it – Personal recommendations can be a great starting point! ✔ Interview confidently – You'll be spending time with this person, so make sure the fit feels right. ✔ Do background checks – Verify their credentials, residency status, and criminal record for peace of mind.
