Overview

As we get older our circumstances may change due to a variety of factors including changes in mobility, physical and mental health or sadly bereavement.

Not everybody has family or friends near them and we may start to reflect on the future and how we might cope . The decision to stay in your own home for as long as possible (or possibly moving in with a family member) rather than into a residential setting can often be made knowing that you will have professional help at hand as and when your needs change. Choosing homecare comes with many benefits including flexibility without the need for long-term commitment.

At Welcombe care we can help to make the transition as seamless as possible for you, increasing our input as you feel you need it. We believe that being given the assistance to stay in your own home, with your personal belongings and memories around you , is what everybody who wants to, should be able to do.

Questions & Answers

  • This can vary dependent on the hours of care you require, call or contact us to discuss your budget. This is also discussed at an initial assessment visit so you are clear about cost before you commit to any care provision. There are no hidden charges such as set up, exit or retainer fees. The only additional cost would be for Bank Holiday care when an additional hourly rate is incurred as we pay our carers extra for working these days.

  • We will invoice you weekly, a week in arrears. You can pay via standing order, BACs (bank transfer) or by cheque. Payment terms are 3 days from invoice.

  • As we are a small, independent care company you will only see a small group of carers. Our carers work in teams overseen by a Team Leader. If you require more than one carer this is called a ‘double up’ call and so therefore you will see a few additional carers. We also provide our new carers with ‘shadowing’ so they get to know the role and our services users whilst being supported by an experienced member of our team before they work alone. We endeavour to provide continuity of care as we know this is valued by service users and staff alike.

  • Yes we do, we will always ask your preference and support this. All of our carers have enhanced employment checks and are all trained to the same high level with additional training for complex needs or other requirements. We are an inclusive employer and recruit to our ethos and core values.
