Premier Health Care, quality English-speaking nursing and home care in Mazarrón, Camposol and south-west MurciaShort- and long-term care arrangements, post-op and other home care in the Mazarrón area

Premier Care has been setup and run under the supervision of Heather Spence, a fully qualified nurse with 20 years’ experience in the UK. She has made it her mission to provide a comprehensive English-speaking home care service in the south-west of Murcia, including the Mazarrón and Camposol.

Offering a high standard of professional care and building a reliable reputation has allowed Heather to put together a team of fully qualified NHS nurses with many years of professional experience and a wide range of skills and qualifications.

Long- and short-term care programs can be arranged, providing relief to both patients and family carers in cases of chronic ill health or temporary reliance on help from outside, and before each care program is finalized Heather and her staff carry out a free home assessment in order to establish exactly what is needed in each individual case, enabling Premier Care to provide a bespoke patient-centred plan.

Typically this might include cleaning and re-dressing wounds in post-surgical care, ensuring medication is taken at the right times, and providing help with everyday tasks such as getting out of bed, washing, dressing, bathing and preparing for bed, and basic housework chores can also be included, from laundry to walking the dog!

But at the same time the need for patients to maintain their dignity and right to choose is respected, while a caring and compassionate service is offered.

It can be hard for patients and relatives to accept that help is needed, but in south-west Murcia talking to contacting Premier Health Care makes that decision significantly easier: simply contact Heather to discuss your needs and set about designing a tailor-made program to suit your situation!

Premier Care works extensively with Local charities such as MABS (Cancer Support) and the Forget me Not Respite centre providing care where needed.

Short- and long-term care arrangements, fully qualified English-speaking staff

Premier Health Care offer a range of home help and health care services in the south-west of the Region of Murcia, providing professional help and a native English-speaking service for those who are in need of medical care, assistance in the home or both.

Long- and short-term care programs can be arranged, providing relief to both patients and family carers in cases of chronic ill health or temporary reliance on help from outside, such as pre- and post-surgery.

When ill health or frailty leaves people unable to care for themselves it is of vital importance for friends and family to know that they are in safe and professional hands, and Heather Spence at Premier Health Care has recognised that the need for this kind of service among the expat community in Murcia is a genuine one. On the other hand, the services required are hard to find, and her mission is to remedy that situation.

Before care programs are finalized, Heather carries out a free home assessment in order to establish exactly what is needed in each individual case, enabling her to provide a bespoke patient-centred plan. This might include cleaning and re-dressing wounds in post-surgical care and ensuring medication is taken at the right times and in the right amounts, as well as providing help with day-to-day activities such as getting out of bed, washing and dressing and bathing.

Evening visits to prepare patients for bed can also be included, taking the stress away from in-house carers such as spouses, and sleep-over visits are also arranged when needed: the staff at Premier Health Care are prepared for all such eventualities.

Basic housework chores can also be included, such as laundry, general cleaning, providing home-cooked meals and even walking the dog!

At all times the goal remains for patients to retain their own dignity while providing a caring and compassionate service.

In addition, hospital visits can also be arranged to assist with bedside care, and help is given organizing medical appointment and providing translation services during consultancies.

Heather approaches the task of providing a reliable health care service in English in south-west Murcia from a background of over 20 years’ experience in district nursing, residential care homes, rapid response and HomeSafe teams, and Home intravenous services. She also has specialist experience in orthopaedic services.

At the same time, she and the staff at Premier Health Care are fully aware of what they are legally allowed to do as carers in Spain and what is forbidden by law (UK nursing qualifications are not always automatically recognized in this country), and clients or patients can rest assured that no unauthorized care (such as injections) are provided and insurance policy conditions are not breached. 

It is often difficult for patients (and their relatives) to accept that help is needed in order to get through an illness or, indeed, through the day, but contacting Premier Health Care makes that decision significantly easier. Simply get in touch with Heather to discuss your needs and set about designing a tailor-made program to suit your situation, from substituting a regular carer for a just a day or two to taking full responsibility for a patient’s everyday health and wellbeing on a permanent basis.
