Visiting Homecare Service

What is visiting homecare?

This type of care is usually known as domiciliary care, community care or home help and is where a carer visits you in your home to help you stay living independently. Visiting homecare is very flexible as you may need a carer for only an hour a week, several hours a day or you might even need around the clock care and support – this is known as live in care. Visiting homecare can be available on a short-term respite care basis or it can be long term.

When should I consider help at home?

Needing more support doesn’t have to mean leaving home. Are you…

• Reaching a point where you need constant assistance at home?
• Having surgery and want to recover at home?
• Finding it difficult to cope with washing, dressing and getting out and about?
• Needing around the clock care and you do not want to move into a care home?
• Feeling lonely or need someone to accompany you to your GP or hospital appointments?
• Needing help with the housework or shopping?

If so then our local visiting homecare service could be the solution you’re looking for.

Novus Care is regulated by the Care Quality Commission and can provide a qualified, experienced carer to support your loved one in the comfort of their own home from just a visit per day to around the clock live in care.

Our Carers are able to support those living with a variety of care conditions including complex care. We help those living with Alzheimer’s and Dementia, Brain Injuries, Stroke, Spinal Injuries and support many with neurodegenerative conditions, such as Multiple Sclerosis and Motor Neurone Disease.
