Also known as ‘care at home’, home care gives you or your loved ones the opportunity to receive expert assistance in your own home. Home care can be received as little or as often as required – every individual will have their own set of care needs, which makes it important to have full flexibility over the support that you receive.
Whether you’d just like weekly care visits or require specialist care for a complex medical condition, home care is for people with all types and levels of need. Here are some of the many reasons why home care is such a popular support option:
Home care gives you the opportunity to receive personal one-to-one support from your own carer, meaning you’ll always have their full attention
Many people relish the chance to remain in the comfortable, secure surroundings of home whilst receiving the additional support they need
Home care allows you to enjoy a personalised care plan that ensures you’re always getting the ideal amount of assistance for your needs and wishes
From board games to going to the theatre, receiving care at home means you’ll be able to continue the routines and hobbies you enjoy
With a personalised support plan, you can spend as much time as you wish with family and friends – either in your own home or theirs
Our holistic approach to home care means that every aspect of you and your family’s support needs will be catered for
We’re very proud of our exceptional home carers, who are always going above and beyond to ensure every customer receives the brilliant support that they deserve. We know that a care service can only be as good as the carer providing it, which is why we place so much emphasis on ensuring our carers are the very best in the UK.
The ultimate goal of home care is to promote independent living that suits you. There is no set time, health condition or diagnosis to consider help at home from a professional home care service provider. It is simply when you feel that you need extra support to carry out everyday tasks and meal preparation or live life the way you want to.
A carer can provide assistance with your daily routines – whether that’s doing time-consuming housework or providing discreet personal care
