Emotional Wellbeing & Mental Health Support
Holistic Care That Goes Beyond the Physical

Our holistic approach focuses on the individual as a whole, supporting not just the body, but the mind and spirit too.

Our carers are fully trained to assist with all aspects of personal hygiene and grooming. We understand that individuals with paralysis may need support with:
- Washing, bathing, and showering, including sensitive areas
- Dressing and undressing, with attention to comfort and dignity

All personal care is delivered with empathy and respect, maintaining the individual’s privacy and preferences while ensuring their physical needs are fully met.

Why Choose Us
What Our Service Users Say
I started my care with 2 carers twice a day coming in to help me due to a brain injury, with the fantastic help from the carers at Chenai I was able to drop down to just 2 carers coming just once a day. Now I do not need the carers at all. Thank you for all your help in getting me back to being independent.
I have 2 carers that come into me 4 times a day, they help me with several things. This helps my husband have a little time for himself to do things he needs to do. The carers are fantastic and very helpful.We would be lost without them
