Details of Organisation and Service
At HomeCareDirect we’re passionate about the personalisation of care, and for over 10 years we’ve been supporting people and families to take control over their support at home. We provide a national service and are proud to be helping hundreds of people and their families nationwide to live independently in their own home.
Do you want more choice and control over your care at home?
Do you want to choose and organise your own personal assistants?
Do you want your personal assistants to be a friend, neighbour or relative?
Do you want to choose who comes into your home and when?
Do you want your personal assistants trained to meet your specific needs?
Do you want to choose your own personal assistants without the responsibilities and risks of being their employer?
If you answered yes to any of the above then we can help!
We're a national service who recognise that personal budgets, direct payments and personal health budgets give people the chance to choose, employ and organise their own personal assistants – an opportunity to have full choice and control over their support at home.
HomeCareDirect offer a third party service and employ your chosen personal assistants on your behalf. You’ll still have all the same choice and control yet you won’t have to take on the responsibility (and sometimes the hassles!) of being an employer.
We think that there’s no better way to get an insight into the benefits of directing your own support than by hearing from those who are already doing it, so please see our website here for some of our success stories.
See our website for lots more details on HomeCareDirect and how we can help you direct your own support www.homecaredirect.co.uk
We recognised that people want the choice and control of self directed support but are daunted by all the responsibilities. Therefore, we’ve designed a service to make choosing and employing your own personal assistant team as easy as possible.
HomeCareDirect offer a third party service and employ your chosen personal assistants on your behalf. You’ll still have all the same choice and control yet you won’t have to take on the responsibility (and sometimes the hassles!) of being an employer.
We’ll ensure your personal assistants are employed in a legal manner, taking on the payroll on your behalf, including all employers national insurance, holiday and bank holiday pay, maternity/paternity and sickness pay.
As part of the service, you’ll be allocated an independent living nurse, a dedicated independent living advisor and a 24/7 support line to help you make a success out of directing your own support and ensure everything runs smoothly.
By taking all of this responsibility on for you, you will then be free to focus on managing your own support package.
Our service caters for anyone who needs care, including older people, children and young people, people with learning disabilities, complex health needs, people with mental health issues and people with physical disabilities and/or sensory impairments.
Our service is also registered with the CQC.
