What is the Care At Home service? Our private Care at Home service could be for you, if you - or someone you care for - is an adult and needs: some support to remain at home; some support to return home from hospital; the person you care for has some care and companionship needs and you would welcome some time away for yourself each week While we all prefer to remain at home, or look forward to going home safely after a stay in hospital, for example, it can be an anxious time for some. Especially if you live alone or do not have support available. Our Care at Home service will provide reassurance, comfort and confidence to enable you to return or remain at home knowing someone will be there to help you along the way. Care at Home can also enable family Carers to have a little time away, knowing that the adult you look after will be safe and well cared for.
