Trying to manage her diabetes, Joan was struggling and becoming increasingly anxious about her blood sugar levels. Juniper Home Care’s nursing team provided education to Joan and her husband for three months, equipping Joan with the tools she needed to keep her diabetes in check and to regain her confidence. As Joan’s confidence and knowledge grew, Juniper nurses gradually visited less and now Joan is managing independently. Did we at Juniper do ourselves out of a job? Absolutely. But that’s exactly what Joan wanted –to be independent at home, with the tools and knowledge to manage herself.

Dianne was finding it hard to move around and was feeling fearful to clean her home the way she always had. Now Dianne teams up with her Juniper support worker Sonam. Dianne dusts and wipes the bench. Sonam vacuums and mops. Dianne now loves having her family over in her sparkling home. Do we do all Dianne’s cleaning? No way, Dianne can do plenty herself. We provide the support on those tasks that are out of reach and Dianne keeps her fitness and wellbeing up doing the tasks she’s more than capable of. Together they make a great team.
