Eleanor Drayton
01. The Challenge & Solution
Severe arthritis meant household chores were piling up, increasing Mrs Drayton’s fall risk. Bondage Valley supplied a Complete Home domestic-care plan: daily one-hour visits covering deep-clean rota, laundry, grocery runs and meal preparation.
“My home feels safe again—and so do I.”
— Mrs Drayton
02. Working Process
Initial OT risk assessment to map hazards.
Systematic declutter and cleaning schedule.
Installation of grab rails identified by carers.
Weekly shopping lists agreed via family portal.
03. Perfect Result
OT reassessment moved her fall-risk rating from High to Low. Energy bills fell 12 % after carers optimised appliance use, and Mrs Drayton’s daughter cut 100 miles of weekly travel, saving both cost and time.
