Homecare

TC HOMECARE Turkish Cypriot Homecare was established in 1993 and has continued to provide culturally, linguistically, and religiously sensitive care for nearly 30 years. We provide care to the elderly and to people with disabilities, ensuring that individuals can continue to live in their own homes independently, and in a dignified manner whilst maintaining their safety. TC Homecare currently works within the Hackney, Islington, Haringey, Enfield, NHS, CHC and Waltham Forest boroughs, and has several private clients. As with previous years, we see a continuation in the need for palliative care.

Our care provision relates to

  1. Palliative Care / End of life
  2. Dementia Care
  3. Learning Disabilities
  4. Physical disabilities
  5. PEG and Stoma Care
  6. Personal Care (Wash, undress/dress, preparing light snacks or heating and serving cooked meals and light domestic of the areas used by the service user)
  7. Escorting outdoors
  8. Waking or Sleep in Night Services

Care Quality Commission stated that the service was, “exceptionally well-led” and achieve a rating of

“OUTSTANDING” for WELL LED criteria,
with an overall rating of “GOOD”

During our last Inspection, CQC noted:

“We found that the provider was exceptionally Well Led. This meant service leadership was exceptional and distinctive. Leaders and the service culture they created drove and improved high-quality, person centred care.”

Homecare

Unlike many other care agencies, TCCA is a registered charity, and is therefore is able to re-invest any surplus into the community oriented needs led projects, including those who receive homecare. Multiple free and accessible, services and one-off events have occurred throughout the year, such as The Luncheon Club which provides a space for the elderly to gather and socialise. There is also the weekly Advice Surgery, providing help in Turkish. Events on Cancer Awareness, free Health Screenings, presented by those in the medical profession, and Christmas Hampers during the festive period, all this happens throughout the year.

The phenomenally successful Turkish Cypriot Arts and Culture Festival, and the Afro-Cypriot History event also provided a space for the elderly to experience their culture, reminisce and socialise. Our clients have access to all these services. Turkish Cypriot Homecare continually works hard to develop our provisions, and we continue to raise our already high standard. We are cache accredited and provide in-house, bespoke, culturally sensitive training that surpasses the Care Quality Commission standard. Our care staff complete an initial induction training before starting work, followed by an assortment of trainings such as Medication, Safe Guarding, COSHH, Challenging Behaviour, Communication, Dementia and Mental Health, Duty of Care, Equality and Diversity, Fire Safety, Fluid and Nutrition, Food Safety, Health and Safety, Infection Control, Manual Handling, Moving and Repositioning, Peg and Pump Feed, Recording Reporting and Confidentiality, Tissue Viability and Person Centre Care and Dignity.

COVID 19

During Covid, TCCA has lead a response in dealing with additional issue that have been caused by the pandemic, this has included additional training to all staff, PPE access beyond that of most agencies, and substantive additionality for our care packages including, 24 hour emergency phone access, daily food runs, weekly essentials delivery, befriending initiative and access to a weekly information service broadcast via iptv, online and via Euro Genc TV

Homecare team and the care assistants working in the field have shown incredible carriage, responsibility, love and passion towards the people we care for and have worked tirelessly ensuring our clients wellbeing, health and personal care beginning and throughout the Covid 19 pandemic. It has been extremely challenging periods of time for humanity and carer assistants risked their lives to ensure that people they cared for continued receiving the level of support required with their personal care, shopping, mental and emotional care.

As TCCA we would like to say a massive THANK YOU and express our gratitude to all paid and non-paid carers who has and still continues to work hard to support our community. ”
