Health and Well-Being Checks
Expert care in the comfort of your own home
Staying independent at home often goes hand-in-hand with staying healthy. At A Star Care, we understand that early detection of any changes in your health can make a big difference. That’s why we offer personalised health and wellbeing checks, designed to give you and your family peace of mind.
What are Health & Wellbeing Checks?
Our wellbeing checks are short, regular visits conducted by our qualified and caring staff. During these home visits, we’ll focus on several key areas to ensure your overall health and well-being.
Vital Signs Monitoring: Our caregivers will take your blood pressure, pulse, temperature, and oxygen saturation levels. These readings can provide valuable insights into your overall health.
General Wellbeing Assessment: We’ll ask you questions about your current health, any concerns you might have, and how you’re feeling overall.
Medication Management Review: We can help ensure you’re taking your medications correctly and on schedule.
Safety Checks: We’ll look for potential hazards in your home environment and offer recommendations to improve safety.
Social Connection: Our caregivers are also there to provide companionship and a listening ear.

Who Our Health and Well-being Checks are Designed For
Health and well-being checks are designed for and appropriate for the following groups of people:
- Seniors who want to maintain independence at home: These checks are ideal for older adults who wish to age in place but might need some extra support to monitor their health and ensure safety.
- People with Mobility challenges: Whether you are physically disabled or in old age are finding leaving the house a challenge, our carer will come to you instead!
- People with chronic health conditions: If you have a condition that requires ongoing monitoring, such as diabetes or heart disease, these checks can be a valuable tool to track your health and identify any potential issues early on.
- Individuals recovering from illness or surgery: After a hospital stay or surgery, regular health checks can help ensure a smooth recovery at home.
- Those at risk for health decline: If you live alone or have limited mobility, these checks can provide an extra layer of security and help identify any early signs of decline in your health.

Benefits of Home Well-Being Checks
At the heart of A Star Care is the belief that care from the home promotes independence and comfort for individuals who require additional help. Our health and well-being checks are convenient as we come to you! No need to arrange transport or stress over accessing your doctors if you struggle with mobility.
Our care services are designed to be personal and tailored towards your needs, when your carer is matched to you, they’ll become familiar with your needs and regular checks after an assessment and discussion about your requirements.
What’s more, at the doctor’s surgery, your nurse can’t see your living environment, but our carers can suggest home improvements for clients who struggle with mobility or need support with domestic chores. We’ll look after you from a more personal level.
A Star Care understand the importance of connection and companionship too. Not only do we offer companionship care services, but our health and well-being checks will be a regular check-in on your mental health and give you a length of time to communicate with someone and feel less isolated, especially for individuals who live alone.
Companionship & Emotional Support
We believe in the power of connection, not just in providing care, but in enriching lives. That’s why our compassionate caregivers go beyond practical tasks. They offer warm companionship, engaging in genuine conversations and sharing activities that bring joy and laughter. Their presence fosters a sense of connection and belonging, nurturing your mental well-being and reminding you that you’re never alone.
Knowing that someone is checking in on you regularly can provide a sense of security and comfort. Regular check-ins can help identify potential problems or changes in your health early on, allowing for timely intervention.
How Often Should I Have Wellbeing Checks?
The frequency of your health and well-being checks will depend on your individual needs and health situation. We can discuss this with you during your initial assessment and tailor a plan that’s right for you. A Star Care happily work flexibly around every client, so whether you require check-ins, short-term care or long-term care support, we have carers that will be matched to your needs.
