This service type offers personalized care for individuals who live in their own homes. The specific needs of the individuals availing these services can vary significantly, and care packages are tailored to meet their unique circumstances.
Care providers visit the individual at various times throughout the day, and in certain cases, care can be provided continuously for a full 24-hour period. In situations where care is offered intermittently during the day, the individual may live independently without continuous support or care between the scheduled visits.
The objective is to provide the necessary assistance and support while respecting the individual’s desire for independence and autonomy within their own living space. The care schedule is designed to accommodate the person’s specific requirements and ensure that their well-being and comfort are prioritised.
