This service type provides personal care for people living in their own homes. The needs of people using the services may vary greatly, but packages of care are designed to meet individual circumstances.
The person is visited at various times of the day or, in some cases, care is provided over a full 24-hour period. Where care is provided intermittently throughout the day, the person may live independently of any continuous support or care between the visits.

Community Services
We facilitate and support community access. This is done through provision of care to people who need health care support in their own home, in community settings or in development / rehabilitation units. The care provided may be short- or long-term and meet Acute or Chronic Health care needs. The services help people to live independently in the community and are directly responsible for the quality of the care and support provided by our Care Team and working with other Health professionals.
Residential Care
Adults may be placed in Adult Residential Facilities because of a Disability, often a Mental Health condition which makes them unable to care for themselves on a daily basis. Various forms of long-term residential care are available for elderly people and young people over 18 years of age. They may choose to prepare their own meals or have meals provided. Many residential facilities are designed to care for residents who do not need 24-hour care but are unable to live independently. These are typically in providing a furnished or unfurnished accommodation depending residents’ choice in a shared house, together with all meals and housekeeping and laundry services. Depending on the needs of the resident, we also provide assistance with daily activities such as personal hygiene, dressing, eating, and walking. These are not considered to be medical facilities, but they do have to meet state standards for care and safety.
Hospital Step Down Beds
We work with the NHS Discharges Team for homecare placements and short term placements and ‘step-down beds’ (for patients discharged from hospital but not quite ready to care for themselves at home). These are patients also waiting for their Social Care packages or Health care packages to be ready for extra care to facilitate a safer return home. We are always here to help. Please contact our team today for more information and services offered.
