Read More About Starting Care

Your first visit and assessment

When you contact us, we arrange a visit at a time that suits you. At this first visit we listen to what you want and need and answer your questions; carry out an assessment with you, and with your family or representative if you wish; look at any risks in the home and agree how to manage them with you; and agree your care plan, the times of your visits and what it will cost, in writing. You are in control throughout, and nothing happens without your agreement.

How we decide if we can meet your needs

We consider your needs, where you live, and whether we have the right care workers available, and we tell you clearly and quickly whether we can help. We would rather be honest at the start than take on care we cannot deliver safely.

Your care plan and reviews

Your care plan is your plan. It sets out what support you want, how you want it, and the outcomes that matter to you. You have a copy in your home, and you can ask to change it at any time. We review it with you at least every six months, and sooner if your needs change or after any time in hospital.

Your visits

We agree your visit times with you and aim to arrive on time, every time. We use an electronic call-monitoring system that logs each visit, so the office can act quickly if a care worker is running late or a visit is missed. If we are ever going to be late, we will let you know.

Care fees

Care Fees

Our care packages are tailored to each person's individual needs, preferences and circumstances. Fees will vary depending on the level of support required, the frequency and duration of visits and any additional requirements identified during the assessment process.

Please contact our team to discuss your care requirements and receive further information about our fees. A clear written quotation will be provided before your care begins.

More information

Your care team, your rights and your safety

Your care team

We choose our care workers carefully so that you can trust the people who support you. Every care worker has an enhanced DBS check before they work with you, and we check references and a full work history. Care workers wear a photo identity badge, and you can always ask to see it. We try to send you the same small team of familiar faces, and we agree with you how our care workers enter your home, including any key-safe, which we keep secure.

What if I feel unsafe, or I am worried about someone?

You have the right to live free from abuse, neglect and harm, and it is never your fault if something is wrong. Please tell us โ€” we will listen, take it seriously and act. You can phone the office on +44 7883 660490 or speak to any care worker.

You can also contact others directly: Newcastle safeguarding adults on 0191 278 8377 in office hours or 0191 278 7878 out of hours; NHS 111 and select the mental health option if you are in mental health crisis; or the police on 999 in an emergency, or 101 for a non-emergency.

Can I get this information in a different format?

Yes. Tell us how you like to receive information and communicate, and we will meet your needs โ€” for example large print, easy-read, braille, audio, an interpreter, British Sign Language or an advocate. We record what you need, make sure everyone supporting you knows, and provide it.

We follow the Accessible Information Standard, the Equality Act 2010 and the Human Rights Act 1998, and make reasonable adjustments so that no one is disadvantaged, whatever their disability, sensory or cognitive need, mental health, language or literacy.

How can my care change, pause or end?
  • After you sign the service agreement you have 14 days to change your mind and cancel.
  • You or we can end the agreement with 28 days' written notice. We would only end your care in limited circumstances, for example if we can no longer safely meet your needs, and we would always explain why and help you find another service.
  • To change or cancel a planned visit we ask for at least 48 hours' notice where possible.
  • You can pause your support, for a holiday or hospital stay, with 7 days' notice where possible.
  • We give at least 6 weeks' written notice of any change to the agreement, including fees.
What happens if something disrupts the service?

We plan ahead so that your care continues through bad weather, staff shortages or a problem with our systems. We keep a list of people whose visits must always continue, we have back-up care workers and an on-call team, and we keep you informed. Our on-call team is available 24 hours a day, every day of the year, on +44 7883 660490.

Your information and privacy

We keep information about you to provide your care, and we keep it safe and private. We only share it with people who need it, such as your doctor, and only with your agreement or where the law allows โ€” for example to keep you safe. We follow the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018, and you can ask to see the information we hold about you. We are registered with the Information Commissioner's Office.

Contact us

Arrange a free care assessment

Tell us what is happening at home and we will arrange a visit at a time that suits you. Nothing is agreed until you have it in writing.

Please do not include detailed medical information in this form. We use the details you provide only to respond to your enquiry and, if you go ahead, to arrange your care. We keep them safe and private in line with the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018, and we never share them for marketing.
