Domestic Care & Errands
Novus Care enables you or your loved one
to live a truly independent life
To enable you or your loved one to live a truly independent life, our carers provide help in and around the home with domestic tasks, as well as helping to run errands. We believe that a home care package should be tailored to assist you as much or as little as you need with these daily or weekly tasks. Instead of taking control and completing tasks for you, we prefer to provide assistance to enable you to continue with your routine, to help you feel more independent.
We understand that every day is different, and you may need more help with domestic duties on certain days than others. For some clients, getting to the shops to pick up their own groceries or buying a surprise gift for a relative can mean a lot.
We take a person centred approach, trying our best to stick to the routines you have already established. Our home care workers will adapt to your individual requirements and personal preferences, to better enable independent living.
