    Home Care - Frequently Asked Questions

    What is home care and how does it work?

    Home care provides professional support in your own home, helping you maintain independence and quality of life. Our carers visit at agreed times to assist with personal care, medication, companionship, household tasks, and more. We begin with a friendly conversation to understand your needs, then create a personalised care plan that's completely tailored to you.

    What's the difference between home care and live-in care?

    Home care involves visits at scheduled times throughout the day or week, ranging from 30 minutes to several hours. Live-in care means a dedicated carer lives in your home, providing round-the-clock support while still ensuring you have privacy and independence. We offer both services, helping you choose what best suits your circumstances.

    How quickly can home care be arranged?

    We can often arrange care within 48 hours in urgent situations, though we prefer a bit more time to ensure we fully understand your needs and preferences. Emergency support can sometimes be established on the same day. The most important thing is getting care that's right for you, so we'll work at a pace that feels comfortable while ensuring you're not left without needed support.

    Can care arrangements change if my needs change?

    Absolutely. We understand that needs evolve over time—sometimes gradually, sometimes unexpectedly. Your care plan is a living document that adapts with you. We conduct regular reviews and encourage you to let us know anytime you feel adjustments might help. Our responsive approach means support can flex smoothly whether you need more assistance, different types of support, or eventually less care.

    How much does home care cost?

    Yes, many people are eligible for financial assistance. Options include local authority funding (after a needs assessment), NHS continuing healthcare for those with primary health needs, Attendance Allowance, Personal Independence Payment, and carer's allowance for family members. We can help you understand your eligibility and navigate the application process.

    Can I get financial help to pay for home care?

    Yes, many people are eligible for financial assistance. Options include local authority funding (after a needs assessment), NHS continuing healthcare for those with primary health needs, Attendance Allowance, Personal Independence Payment, and carer's allowance for family members. We can help you understand your eligibility and navigate the application process.
