We can offer the following care packages and even customise them to meet your immediate needs.

Care Visits
A care package will be individually designed to cater for specific needs and care visits can be arranged in 15 minute sessions upwards, and can be on a daily or more frequent basis, weekdays and weekends and public holidays.
Our typical care visits are usually 1 hour but can be for several hours or only 30 minutes according to what levels of support you need. During our assessment visit we will discuss what you would like to achieve during our visit and this will determine the length of your booking.
Our visits can be several times a day to provide support or once a day or weekly, monthly or as and when
Live-In Care
For more in-depth care requirements, a live-in carer may be more appropriate. A carer will stay with you 24 hours a day. Live-in carers can either sleep in your home and be “on-call” for you during the night, or can be awake and tending to your care needs throughout the night, depending on your requirements.
This service is available 365 days a year. Shifts will be arranged so that you normally have the same carer, who will work for you for a few weeks, then take a short break.
