The philosophy of Tipton Home Care Ltd.  is based on the principle of careful selection, training, support and supervision of the caregiver of the elderly, and the discharge of relatives, in order to achieve the best possible benefit of the elderly.

The range of neglect and abuse of the elderly is very broad and is manifested by ignoring the desires, neglecting the need for companionship, the isolation from the wider social environment, improper care of hygiene, neglect of proper diet, nutrition and hydration, the neglect of health care, the abuse of sedatives, restriction of mobility when it is not absolutely necessary and the use of physical abuse, etc.

The state of mental health of the caregiver is a crucial parameter. The existence of serious family or personal problems that have not been faced, the existence of problems in their personality, the presence of mental illness that is often not evident as well as substance abuse, increase the possibility of providing inadequate care. The capacity for timely identification of such data is very important to prevent unsuitable people.

Lack of awareness of those issues and neglect of the caregiver can lead to the phenomenon of neglect or abuse of the elderly. As neglect, generally, is defined the inability or failure of caregivers to respond adequately to the needs of the dependent by them elderly. We must say, however, that neglect is mostly unintentional either through ignorance or because of chronic mental fatigue, either inherent inability of the individual to provide such care.

Neglect and abuse of the elderly is very difficult to assess. The caregivers are trying to keep hidden the inadequate care provided and only the very extreme cases can be noticed.

The staff in Tipton Home Care Ltd.  is here to provide the best of cares to the elderly in the comfort of their own home.
