Making the decision to have someone help you or a loved one with care at home is a daunting one. At Approve we work hard to help you make the right choices about the amount and type of help you or your loved one need. With our dedicated team of carers we can offer care and support with a variety of daily tasks including, but not limited to:
When thinking about care at home, there are two choices you can make, one is to have someone live with you, or your loved one, all of the time, the other is to have carers who drop in to provide care and support at key points of the day. If you are not sure which one is right for you or your loved one, have a look at our table which helps you compare them:
Visiting Care | Live in Care |
If you need short periods of care at key points in the day. | If you want or need someone to provide support and care regularly. |
You need little or no help at night. | You often need help at night. |
You are able to do somethings for yourself. | You find it difficult to do many things. |
You are happy to be on your own/alone with your family member(s) who live with you. | You prefer to have someone around to keep you company. |
You are happy with different carers coming in as you need. | You prefer to get to know one or two carers well over a period of time |
If you are uncertain as to what might suit your needs best, then you can give us a call and we will be happy to talk it through with you with no obligation to take things further.
