What’s a Chronic Condition?

Chronic conditions are long-term illnesses that last at least a year and often get worse over time. These conditions require regular medical care and can prevent people from living normal lives. And, they’re very common: About 60% of American adults are living with a chronic condition and 40% have two or more chronic conditions.

Our caregivers have specific skills to support individuals who require assistance with daily activities such as bathing, personal hygiene, healthy menu planning, meal preparation, and adherence to prescribed medications and therapies. 

Our flexible caregiving services are available occasionally when needed, or for 24-hour care.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the different types of care homes?

The different types of care homes are residential homes, nursing homes, and specialist care homes, such as dementia care homes. Other types of residential care include assisted living and retirement villages. 

What is the difference between a residential care home and a nursing home?

The main difference between a residential home and a nursing home is that a nursing home has a qualified nurse on-site 24-hours a day to provide necessary medical care. This means nursing homes can provide a higher level of care. 

Can I change care homes if I am not happy?

If you or a loved one have moved into a care home but feel that you struggle to settle in, it is not the right fit or the location stops family from visiting regularly, you can change care homes. Make sure that you have read the terms of your contract to avoid any issues.

Can I get help with paying for care home fees?

Depending on your financial circumstances and your care needs, you may be able to receive help with paying your care costs. If you have capital below a certain amount, which varies between countries in the UK, your local authority will contribute towards your fees. The NHS may cover your nursing care fees in some circumstances and there are a few benefits you can claim while living in a care home.
