Thinking of becoming a carer?

Arthritis Care

“Arthritis affects a whopping ten million people in the UK and comes in around 200 forms. It can prevent you from being able to do what were once simple tasks. We can help support you to tackle your daily routine or simply be there if you’re having a bad day.”

Owners,

Adrian & Ciara

What is Arthritis?

Arthritis is a condition that causes pain and inflammation in a joint. Although the term is used to describe around 200 conditions that affect the joints, the tissues that surround the joint, and other connective tissue, Osteoarthritis and Rheumatoid Arthritis are the two most common types.

Symptoms of arthritis include:

  • Pain.
  • Stiffness.
  • Restricted movements of the joints.
  • Inflammation and swelling.
  • Warmth and redness of the skin over the joint.


Our local and experienced care assistants can help:

  • Take on daily challenges that put pressure on joints – anything from opening a tin can to bringing in the shopping.
  • Get joints moving, by helping with special exercises.
  • Encourage non-physical activities to occupy the mind
  • Encourage healthy eating.
  • Perform activities that tend to put excessive use on certain joints
  • Monitor for signs of depression or fatigue.
