☀️ July is UV Safety Awareness Month! ☀️

Our care workers are often out and about supporting others, but don’t forget to protect yourself too!

Protecting yourself from the sun is very important, the sun's UV rays can cause sunburn, premature ageing, eye damage, and even increase the risk of skin cancer. And yes, you can still burn on cloudy days!

Here's a guide to better protect yourself from the sun:
🕶️ Wear long sleeves, sunglasses, and a wide-brimmed hat
⛱️ Stick to the shade between 11AM – 3PM
🧴 Use a minimum of SPF 30 sun cream and reapply regularly
💧 Wear water resistant sunscreen if you're sweating or near water

Let’s keep ourselves safe while we care for others. For more information, read our latest blog: https://www.carewatch.co.uk/2025/07/15/uv-safety-awareness-month/

Respite care isn’t a luxury - it’s a lifeline 🧡

It’s not about rest, but about survival. A moment to breathe, to manage, to carry on. For caregivers, it’s the quiet strength behind every return.

At Carewatch, we understand the weight caregivers carry. That’s why our respite services are designed to offer more than just a break, they offer peace of mind. Whether it’s a few hours or a few days, we’re here to support you, so you can keep supporting them.

⭐ How Our Quality Home Care Makes A Difference ⭐

While service users reside at our Extra Cares, we are still guests in their homes. The term 'Home Care' does not just focus on practical support, but describes the dignity, independence and compassion that our incredible care staff provide to ensure each service user's individual needs are met while feeling as comfortable as possible.

We create personalised care plans for each of our service users to fit their specific needs. Whatever support you need, we are here to help.

🩺💊 The 6 R’s of Medication Administration: A Life-Saving Habit 💊🩺

As a caregiver, the 6 R’s of medication checks are non-negotiable when it comes to patient safety:

✅ Right Patient
✅ Right Medication
✅ Right Dose
✅ Right Route
✅ Right Time
✅ Right Documentation

These simple checks can prevent serious errors and protect lives. But here’s the golden rule: If you’re ever unsure, STOP and CHECK.❗

Asking questions or taking a moment to double-check is a sign of professionalism and care. One small pause can make a huge difference.

Our service users also have the Right to Refuse, if this happens, please record this in your notes on the access app.

If you are ever unsure of have and concerns, please contact your local office. Let’s keep safety at the heart of everything we do. 💙
