Most families wait until a fall…

a missed medication…

or a moment of panic…

before reaching out.

But planning ahead isn’t dramatic, it’s protective.

It’s love in action.

If you’ve noticed worrying changes in your parent, like forgetting meals, losing balance, struggling with daily tasks, or withdrawing more, then these are signs to pay attention to.

A Needs Assessment takes the pressure off your shoulders and gives you:
✓ Clarity on what your parent actually needs
✓ A structured, personalised support plan
✓ Expert advice that saves you stress and money
✓ Relief - because you’re no longer guessing in the dark

You don’t have to wait for something to go wrong.

You don’t have to wait until you’re overwhelmed.

Make the call before it becomes an emergency.

High blood pressure (hypertension) is one of the most common health issues in older adults.

But many families don’t realise how much daily habits can help manage it.
Here are 5 simple ways to support a loved one at home:
✔️ Use less salt and more spices when cooking
✔️ Encourage regular walking or gentle movement - this can be walking around the house and chair exercises, something gentle.
✔️ Use simple stress-relief routines (breathing, calming music)
✔️ Add potassium-rich foods like bananas, beans and spinach
✔️ Keep track of home blood pressure readings to show the GP

We know how important food, culture, and family routines are, and our carers always respect this in the home.

If you’re helping an elderly parent manage their health and it feels like a lot, you don’t have to do everything alone.

Not every win looks big.

Sometimes the quiet victories…

Showing up, trying again, choosing hope, are the ones that change your life the most.

✨ Wishing you a gentle, hopeful New Year.

Yesterday was National Call a Friend Day, a small reminder that connection is care.

But for many older adults, especially after the holidays, loneliness hits harder than people realise.

A simple conversation.

A warm check-in.

Someone who listens.

It all makes a difference.

Our carers don’t just support with daily tasks, they offer companionship, routine, conversation, and real human connection.

Because care isn’t only about what gets done.

It’s about how someone feels while it’s being done. 🧡

If you’re worried about a parent feeling alone this winter, we’re here to support you.

Boxing Day is full of family, food, and fun.

But it’s also the moment you may notice your parent struggling more than you realised.

You finally had time to slow down…and now you’ve seen things you didn’t want to ignore:

– Slower movement
– Forgetting daily tasks
– Difficulty preparing meals
– Needing more reassurance
– Feeling unsteady
– Sleeping more than usual

If this is the first Christmas you’ve thought,
“Mum/Dad might need more support…”

January is when most families reach out for guidance, and you can start with a simple conversation.

📩 DM us if you’d like friendly, no-pressure advice on what support could look like.

This fear stops SO many families from getting the support their parents actually need.

So let’s clear it up 👇

Myth: “The council will take my parent’s house if we ask for care.”

Fact: There are financial rules, thresholds and legal protections in place, and in most cases, the house does not need to be sold.

Here’s what families don’t realise:
✓ A financial assessment looks at income + savings first
✓ Certain assets, including the family home, can be protected
✓ There are legal options like Deferred Payment Agreements
✓ Trusts and specialist advice can safeguard property long-term

Your parent’s home is not automatically “at risk.”

But the real risk is waiting too long…and making decisions in crisis.

If you want to protect your family’s future, get advice from people who understand the system.

Two parents.

Two serious conditions.

And one family who had already tried two other care agencies.

This family needed:
🧠 Dementia care
🎗️ End-of-life support
⏰ Flexibility
💬 Compassion
👨‍👩‍👧 Clear communication

And most of all… peace of mind.

If you’re:
• Caring for a parent with dementia
• Supporting someone at end of life
• Feeling overwhelmed
• Unsure who to trust

You deserve a team that truly shows up, and cares.

We help them:
✨ Feel part of something

✨ Celebrate culture, faith & seasons
✨ Build friendships again

And for families it means a few precious hours of peace, knowing Mum or Dad is:
✅ Warm
✅ Safe
✅ Engaged
✅ Smiling

Is care too expensive?

Many families think so, until they learn about council funding.

If your parent lives in East London or Essex, they may get free or part-funded care through the council.

Here’s how it works in simple steps. 👇

Most people don’t know that a Needs Assessment and a Financial Assessment are both free and available to every adult in the UK.

These assessments help the council understand what support your loved one needs , and if they can help pay for it.

Remember adult children do not have to pay for their parents’ care.

This is one of the biggest fears we hear from families every day.

Once the council agrees on the support, you can choose a registered care agency like Ask Care.

We provide home care, personal care, respite care, dementia support, disability support, and Day Centre services across East London and Essex.

If you want more control, you can also choose Direct Payments, where the council sends the money directly to you.

Many families prefer this because they can choose a care team they trust.

At Ask Care, we guide you with:
✔ requesting the assessments
✔ understanding the process
✔ talking to your local council
✔ creating a care plan that fits your family
✔ choosing the right support for your parent

If the process feels confusing, we help families in Redbridge, Newham, Havering, Barking & Dagenham, Epping Forest, Essex, and all nearby areas every single day.
