Your care questions answered

We hope you'll find the answers to any and all of your care questions on this page, but if not then you can get in touch at any time - our friendly and professional team are here to assist with specific questions or general enquiries.

What is domiciliary care?

Domiciliary care, also known as home care, is a type of care service that allows individuals to receive personalized assistance and support in their own homes.

This can include help with daily tasks, personal care, medication administration, and companionship, ensuring that clients can maintain their independence while still receiving the care they need. A domiciliary care agency provides care and support services to individuals in their own homes, enabling them to live as independently as possible. Services can range from personal care, companionship, and medication management to household tasks and meal preparation.

How do I get started with your agency?

Getting started is easy!

Just give us a call or send us an email, and we'll arrange a free, no-obligation consultation. During this meeting, we'll discuss your needs and preferences and create a personalised care package.

Can I choose my caregiver?

We strive to match you with a caregiver who best suits your needs and preferences.

During the consultation, we'll ask about your requirements, and we'll use this information to find the perfect caregiver for you. If at any time you feel the need to change caregivers, please let us know, and we'll do our best to accommodate your request.

Is care covered by the NHS or insurance?

Some individuals may be eligible for NHS-funded care or support from local authorities.

We recommend contacting your local authority to discuss your eligibility. Additionally, some insurance policies cover live-in care, so we advise checking with your insurance provider.

Are your caregivers insured and background-checked?

Absolutely! All our caregivers are fully insured and have undergone comprehensive background checks, including criminal records, employment history, and reference checks.

We also provide ongoing training and support to ensure they are up-to-date with the latest care practices and techniques.

How do I know if live-in care is right for me or my loved one?

Live-in care is an excellent option for individuals who require consistent support but wish to remain in their own home.

If you or a loved one needs round-the-clock assistance with daily tasks or has complex care needs, live-in care might be the right choice.
