“David wasn’t just a carer—he was a motivator. He encouraged my dad to regain his confidence, to move more, to engage with his old hobbies.”
James had always known his father, Arthur, as an independent, strong-willed man. A retired teacher, Arthur had spent his life shaping young minds, full of wisdom and wit. But after a stroke left him struggling with mobility, everything changed. “He went from being someone who helped others to someone who needed help—and it was tough for him to accept.”
James initially tried to juggle his own work while supporting his father, but the strain became overwhelming. “I wanted to be there for him, but I also wanted to be his son—not just his carer.” That’s when he turned to Prime Eldercare. He was matched with David, a self-employed carer with expertise in post-stroke recovery
“David wasn’t just a carer—he was a motivator. He encouraged my dad to regain his confidence, to move more, to engage with his old hobbies.”
Within weeks, Arthur was regaining some independence. He could dress himself again, join James for breakfast, and even go outside for short walks with David’s help. “The biggest change? His smile. I hadn’t seen that in months.”
