Spinal Cord Injury Complex Care
At E2E Homecare, our specialist spinal cord injury care is designed to help people live safely, independently and confidently in their own homes while continuing to pursue the goals and lifestyle that matter to them.
We understand that no two spinal injuries — or the people living with them — are the same. That’s why every complex care package is individually designed around the person’s clinical needs, abilities, preferences, routines and personal goals.
Support can be tailored to different levels of need, including 24-hour care, daytime support, waking or sleeping nights, and other individually designed packages of care.
Care Built Around the Individual
From the beginning of a new package, we take time to understand the person, not simply their diagnosis.
Our experienced team works closely with the individual, their family and the professionals involved in their care to develop a comprehensive, person-centred support plan. This considers their physical health, clinical needs, emotional wellbeing, social life, independence, risks and personal aspirations.
We carefully select care workers based not only on their experience and competencies, but also on personality and compatibility. Building a consistent team that the person knows and trusts is an important part of delivering successful complex care.
As needs change, we review and adapt the care package so that the right level of support continues to be provided.
Clinical & Complex Care Support
Depending on the individual’s assessed needs, our trained and competent care teams can support a range of complex healthcare needs and interventions, including:
- Bowel and bladder management
- Catheter and stoma care
- PEG/gastrostomy feeding and nutrition support
- Tracheostomy and respiratory support
- Ventilation, CPAP and other respiratory support
- Cough-assist and suction support
- Medication administration and management
- Diabetes and epilepsy support
- Skin integrity and pressure-area care
- Specialist moving, handling, positioning and repositioning
- Spasticity and other complications associated with neurological conditions
- Personal care and continence support
- Monitoring for deterioration and condition-specific risks
- Other delegated healthcare interventions, where appropriately assessed, planned and delegated
Clinical and delegated healthcare interventions are supported by appropriate care planning, risk assessment, staff training, competency assessment, clinical oversight and ongoing review.
Supporting Life Beyond Care
More than clinical tasks
Complex care is about much more than completing clinical tasks.
Choice and control
Our aim is to enable people to maintain choice, control, relationships, interests and community involvement, while receiving the support they need to manage their health safely.
Outcomes that matter
Whether someone wants to return to education or employment, spend time with family and friends, pursue hobbies, access their community or simply enjoy greater independence at home, we build their care around the outcomes that matter to them.
Supporting the Journey Home
We work collaboratively with multidisciplinary teams, hospitals and rehabilitation services to support safe and well-planned transitions from hospital or specialist rehabilitation settings back into the person’s own home when clinically appropriate.
This can include planning the care package, identifying staffing requirements, recruiting and matching the care team, completing person-specific training and competency assessments, understanding equipment requirements and establishing the appropriate clinical and governance arrangements before care begins.
Working Together
We recognise the enormous trust involved in welcoming a care team into someone’s home. We work hard to develop relationships based on respect, consistency, communication and trust, both with the person receiving care and those important to them.
We work closely with case managers, families, commissioners, nominated deputies, legal teams and other professionals involved before and after settlement, where applicable, to ensure the care package continues to meet the person’s needs and supports their agreed outcomes.
Our teams also work collaboratively with the wider multidisciplinary team, which may include spinal injury specialists, GPs, specialist and community nurses, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, speech and language therapists, dietitians, psychologists and other healthcare professionals.
By working together, we aim to provide coordinated care that supports the person’s health, rehabilitation, independence and quality of life.
