Daily Care
Daily care is also known as live-out care, pop-in care, or hourly care
Depending on the level of care required, daily care may usually mean a longer attendance period during the day than a short hourly care visit. Care can be provided between agreed hours by a local carer, sometimes called PA’s or micro-providers, who live locally.
Some benefits of daily care may include:
Access to a small team of dedicated carers who rotate their attendance to the client
The same person provides the care for continuity, or perhaps a team of the same carers
Help with tasks around the home
Assistance with personal care
Providing meals
Checking in with a vulnerable person
Peace of mind for relatives who may live with their loved ones but work during the day
Respite break cover for a live-in carer or a family member
Usually, clients will require a visit more than once a day, sometimes several visits a day, for a few days, or every day each week.
If 4 or more visits are required in a day, or the care needs are becoming more complex, it may be advisable to consider the benefits of a live-in carer at this point as the budgets for this carer may be comparable. If you would like to discuss this, please email hello@athomecaregroup.co.uk
An Hourly care service can also be used to support those who have more complex needs, where two carers may be required at certain times of the day to provide the right care, whether this is during the day or evening.
Daily care allows clients to stay at home in familiar surroundings with a bespoke level of one-to-one support. To see if Daily care is suitable for your needs, email hello@athomecaregroup.co.uk
