Your Care Support Worker will be willing to undertake light domestic tasks such as vacuuming, dusting and general cleaning, washing up, and personal laundry. Our aim is to maintain good levels of cleaning standards. However, First Choice Care is primarily a Care Agency and as such we are unable to undertake deep cleaning. The Care Support Worker can also help with light gardening duties, subject to certain restrictions which will be discussed with you during your care and support needs assessment.
