Self-funded care

If you’re looking for person-centred care at home but don’t qualify for funding or want to enhance your care by paying a little bit more – our skilled, compassionate healthcare workers are here to help with your self-funded care requirements.

We can set up packages of care that are tailored to meet your needs and wishes, whether this is a for few hours per week or full-time care, and provide a fully managed and regulated service with the Care Quality Commission.

How we can help with self-funded care at home

A dedicated healthcare team allows personal connections that ensure care applies just as much to emotional needs as it does to physical needs. Outstanding care comes from being focused on the person and in the moment, enabling a rapid, holistic assessment of their needs which allows us to support clients in their own homes and gives them a better quality of life.

Our professional healthcare teams are carefully selected, trained, supervised, and directly employed by us. Continuity is important to us and you, which is why we provide consistent and reliable healthcare teams.

We specialise in providing a wide range of support to allow our clients a better quality of life in their own homes. This can include:
