KASE Care offers care services for service users in need of specialised endocrine care for disorders that may affect glands and organs such as the thyroid, testes, ovaries, pancreas, parathyroid, pituitary and adrenal glands.

There are several types of endocrine disorders, including diabetes which can manifest into thyroid disease, growth disorders and sexual dysfunction amongst others. The endocrine system, a network of glands which produce hormones, is what helps the body to control important functions such as converting calories into energy.

Endocrine disorders range in severity, especially when proper care and treatment is not administered to the service user. The KASE Care team is on hand to ensure that the service user, as well as their family, receives the support and assistance they need to manage the condition and its symptoms. Our team will create a tailored care plan, discussing individual needs with the service user and family, to suit. Any changes to this will be communicated with you prior to being implemented.

Generally, endocrine diseases are grouped into one of two categories, which are:

  • Hormone imbalances when a gland produces too much or too little hormones
  • Endocrine disease from lesions (such as tumours) in the system

There are many reasons as to why an endocrine disorder may occur, ranging from injury and disease to genetic disorders and tumours. KASE Care is able to grant access to an endocrinologist who is specially trained to offer advice and treat disorders relating to the endocrine system, as well as diagnosing the root cause for the issue.

How KASE Care Supports the Service User and Family

The KASE Care team will work with you to give you the help and support that you or a family member requires. Whether the service user is suffering from fatigue and weakness due to the disorder, or is having trouble completing normal day-to-day tasks such as washing, cooking and shopping, we will help in whatever way we can.

Through home care visits and/or assisted living services where it is deemed necessary, we will help the service user to continue to live an independent and fulfilling life.

Our endocrine care services include:

  • Creation of a tailored plan with consultation from service user and family
  • Access to endocrinologist
  • Support for the family
  • Home care visits/assisted living services
