We can support if a family member or friend needs adult social care. We have support for people that have not been previously assessed.

Care agencies were previously known as 'Home care' or 'Domiciliary care.'

Care agencies provide support to help people live independently.

This support can be short-term or permanent.

It can be for a few hours during the day or overnight.

Some agencies can provide care workers with trained nursing skills. This can support people that have ongoing health issues.

You can select and buy your care services at home from a care provider. This is without social care services involved.

We offer advice to ensure that the support meets your needs. This applies if we cover the care costs or you buy yourself.
