Mental Health Home Care
With more and more people experiencing Mental Health conditions in the UK, Bramble Home Care's Mental Health Home Care service in Gloucestershire has become more important than ever. We take pride in supporting those with physical health conditions, as well as those with mental health issues across our business. Care at home is just as, if not more important when you're living with a mental health condition, and we're proud to provide the support that's so needed in our community.
Caring since 2010
Since 2010, Bramble Home Care has been supplying care at home to residents of Gloucestershire for a range of health needs. It's so important to be in a comfortable and safe space when mental health concerns are at play. Care at home offers a complementary service, or in some cases an alternative, to mental health institutions that can aid in recovery and the management of mental health conditions.
Ensuring the right fit
It's so important to ensure, not only the right environment, but also the best carer when it comes to mental health care at home. Our expert and highly trained team work hard to keep just 2 or 3 members of staff working with a mental health service-user in rotation. This enhances the therapeutic relationship, ensures minimal disruption and help with indentification of mood changes or decline.
Support for all
We've supported clients diagnosed with a variety of mental health conditions, allowing them to obtain the right care them in their own home, including: eating disorders, mood and anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, personality disorders, addictions, PTSD and many more. We work with anyone who needs support: from those needing day-to-day help, to those detained under the Mental Health Act. Everyone is treated with care and dignity.
Areas our Mental Health Home Care can support:
-
Social support

We also work closely with the NHS, local services and loved ones to offer a flexible service that adapts to changing needs.
All our mental health home care packages are specifically designed to suit the individual, taking into account all areas that might impact their mental wellbeing. Plans can take a structured shape, including goal setting with achievable expectations, minimal restrictive crisis management, as well as ensuring Bramble maintains an active role in liaising with the community, family and hospital MDT meetings. Alternatively, a more flexible and fluid approach can be taken where conditions improve or symptoms are less serious, catering to a range of needs and ensuring adaptability.
