How we can Help
Sharing the caring gives you the chance to take time away from their caring role in the knowledge that the person you care for is receiving quality support, care and stimulation from our fully trained and dedicated friendly staff team.
Sharing the Caring understands the importance of peace of mind for you during your breaks and this comes from knowing the person you care for is safe, well cared for and is also enjoying themselves. That is why we will always send the same support worker, whenever possible, to provide your breaks.
Sharing the Caring recognises the importance of supporting you and the person you care for as individuals with a flexible and reliable service.
Our Sharing the Caring Coordinator will meet with you and the person you are caring for, before the service starts, to discuss and agree with you the best way to support you both and meet your needs.
Sharing the Caring can provide;
- Quality stimulative support to the person being cared for in their chosen activities.
- Personal care, practical support and social inclusion to the person being cared for.
- Flexible, individually tailored breaks to meet the carers’ and person they are caring for’s needs.
- Breaks from 1 hour up to 24 hours in length.
- The same support worker for each of your breaks (some exclusions may apply).
- Support with Direct Payments.
- Access to our Information, Advice and Guidance and Carer Support services, giving the carer and person cared for a comprehensive package of support.
