Meloosha Homecare Edinburgh

Employee of the Month for September- Happiness and Lima 💚

Happiness 💚 has been an outstanding member of the team, always reliable and willing to take on extra visits when needed. She recently went above and beyond by helping a client obtain a washing machine and fridge, coordinating everything from start to finish. She also showed excellent attention to detail by identifying and reporting two medication errors, helping to keep the client safe. Thank you, Happiness, for your dedication and hard work.

Lima 💚 has received wonderful feedback from clients and their families, who describe her as the most thorough of carers, with patience that is unmatched. One family even described her as the best carer they have ever had. Her compassion, professionalism, and commitment to high-quality care make her truly deserving of this recognition.

Special Mention – Sanjana 💚

A special mention goes to Sanjana 💚 for the dedication and care she consistently provides, particularly in her support of a specific client. Thank you for your ongoing commitment and for making such a positive difference every day. 💚

🎉💐 A Very Special Double Celebration! 💐🎉

Today we had the pleasure of celebrating two very special occasions. We marked Lorna’s 60th birthday, a fantastic milestone for a truly wonderful lady. Lorna is kind, caring, supportive, and always brings warmth and positivity to those around her. She is loved by colleagues and clients alike, and her dedication, sense of humour, and compassionate nature make her a valued member of our team. Reaching 60 is something to be celebrated, and no one deserves it more than Lorna. We hope she had a fantastic day surrounded by friends, family, and lots of cake! 🎂🎈

We also took the opportunity to say goodbye and thank Sharon as she leaves the company to begin a new chapter. Sharon has made a real difference during her time with us, and we are incredibly grateful for all of her hard work, commitment, and support. While we are sad to see her go, we wish her every success and happiness in the future.

Thank you both for giving us such a lovely reason to come together and celebrate. Here's to special milestones, wonderful memories, and exciting new beginnings! 🥂✨

💜 World Alzheimer’s Month - The Herbert Protocol 💜

As part of World Alzheimer’s Month, we are raising awareness of the Herbert Protocol, an important tool designed to help keep people living with dementia safe. The protocol is a simple form that records vital information about a person, including their routines, interests, important contacts, and places they may visit. If they go missing, this information can help Police Scotland respond quickly and effectively.

Did you know that there are currently an estimated 982,000 people living with dementia in the UK, and this number is expected to rise to 1.4 million by 2040? More than a third of people living with dementia do not yet have a diagnosis, highlighting the importance of planning and support for those affected.

Completing a Herbert Protocol form takes only a short time but could make a significant difference in an emergency. We encourage families, friends, and carers to take a look at the information provided by Police Scotland and consider completing the form for added peace of mind.

✅ If you have completed a Herbert Protocol form for yourself or a loved one, we'd love to hear from you. Please let us know in the comments or send us a message. By sharing your experience, you can help raise awareness and encourage others to take this simple but important step.

Please see the link below to find out more and access the Herbert Protocol. 💜

August Employee of the Month! 💚
Congratulations to Blessing,
Blessing has shown exceptional dedication, professionalism, and compassion while supporting three clients through the transition into their new care packages. As all three individuals experience mental health challenges, the change was understandably difficult and required patience, reassurance, and consistent support. Blessing worked tirelessly to build trust, ease anxieties, and help each client settle into their new routines, ensuring they felt safe, valued, and understood throughout the process. His commitment to providing person-centred care and making a positive difference in our clients' lives truly reflects the values of our service. Thank you, Blessing, for your hard work and outstanding contribution. 💚
