Help planning, preparing and enjoying familiar meals at home.
We can support menu planning, shopping and preparation, taking account of tastes, routines and any dietary guidance you provide.
What support can include
Help shaped around familiar routines.
- Planning meals around preferences
- Preparing fresh meals and light snacks
- Support with shopping and kitchen tasks
- Friendly company at mealtimes
Food is personal. We listen to what you enjoy, what fits your routine and any dietary information you or a relevant professional has provided.
Support may be as simple as preparing lunch together, batch preparing familiar meals or making sure drinks and snacks are within easy reach. The aim is to make mealtimes safe, enjoyable and unhurried.
Common questions
Can you accommodate dietary requirements?
We can follow dietary information and preferences you provide. Where specialist clinical advice is needed, this should come from an appropriate healthcare professional.
How do we agree what support is suitable?
We begin with a conversation and assessment covering routines, preferences, risks and what the person wants to achieve. We then explain what is within our current scope before anything starts.
Can family members be involved?
Yes, with the person’s agreement. Family knowledge can be very helpful, while the individual’s voice, privacy and choices remain central.
Can the support change over time?
Yes. We can review the agreed support as circumstances change. If needs move outside our service scope, we will say so clearly and discuss a safer next step.
Every situation is different. We will assess the
support requested and explain clearly whether it falls within Unity
Home Care’s current service scope.
