How much will my care needs cost?

Valuing quality care for loved ones is invaluable, but addressing the practicality of pricing is a necessity. At Care Delivered, we take pride in delivering personalised, top-quality care at a fair cost. Our approach focuses on tailoring care programs to individual needs, avoiding a one-size-fits-all approach. Each quote is unique, ensuring you only pay for the specific services you require. For a detailed discussion about your needs and to explore our offerings further, we invite you to connect with us.

Can I use local authority funding?

Numerous clients benefit from local authority support through direct payments. To initiate the process with your local council, schedule a care needs assessment. Subsequently, your loved one’s liquid assets (excluding their property) will undergo evaluation. In England, eligibility for government support is determined if their assets are less than £23,250.

How quickly can care be arranged?

For urgent needs, we can arrange care within 24-48 hours, although typically more notice is preferable. Providing our team with ample time enhances the likelihood of finding a care assistant who is an excellent match for your needs. In instances requiring swift care, we may initially select a caregiver based on experience and then invest additional time to secure a more suitable, long-term match in the future.

What training will the carer have?

Our guarantee is that if your loved one has a specific condition, they will be paired with a care assistant with experienced in providing care for individuals with this condition. Additionally, we ensure a thorough process by meeting all our carers face-to-face, conducting comprehensive background checks, and obtaining references from their work history. This commitment is aimed at providing the best possible care for your loved one.

Will they be English speaking?

Speaking English is a mandatory requirement for all our Care assistants. In the case of non-British nationals, we meticulously ensure that their qualifications meet the same rigorous standards upheld in the UK. This commitment ensures effective communication and maintains the high standards of care we prioritise.

Will I get the same carer on each visit?

Recognising the significance of continuity, especially for individuals with conditions like dementia, we acknowledge that our Care assistants, being human, require time off. To address this, we strive to maintain a consistent group of Care assistants who can step in and provide coverage when your regular carer is unavailable. This approach aims to minimise disruptions and ensure a seamless transition of care.

How can we keep your loved one safe?

Our dedicated Care Assistants are available to provide assistance, typically with around 12 hours per day, ensuring your loved one’s safety and well-being. For added peace of mind, various aids are in place to alert the carer to potential issues. In cases where falls are a concern, a pressure mat near the bed can trigger an alarm if the person gets up at night. Additionally, alarms near doors prevent wandering without the carer’s awareness, enhancing overall safety measures.
