Arranging care for myself

Independence is not a value we under estimate at Nobilis. We place it at the heart of everything that we do.

The young and able bodied often take it for granted, and it is only when our independence is challenged that we truly appreciate the importance of it.

At Nobilis, supporting and maintaining your independence in your own home is our chief concern. In order to achieve this, you may require a level of support to assist you with a variety of tasks to make life easier.

Our approach is not intrusive. We do not ‘take over’ or dominate your life. Instead, you decide the level of care you require and the types of activities you need help with and we tailor a flexible service to your specific needs. Should these change, just let us know and we will alter the service accordingly.

Our carers and support workers are all:

• highly trained
• police-checked
• caring
• focused on quality

A common cause of concern is over the consistency of the carers. Are you going to get someone different every week? At Nobilis it is important for us that you have the same carers or support workers. Our clients value the time and effort all our staff spend getting to know them and their families. The result is that our staff are not just highly trained carers, but become trusted friends. 
 
The tasks we can manage for you go far beyond regular ‘care’ tasks. Think of us as your personal assistant, on hand to take care of anything you need. We can deal with trades people for you; help you find the perfect presents for family and friends; run errands, even help you get to grips with the internet. The list is endless, so just ask us.

If you were to ask us what the primary benefits of in-home care are, we’d say some of the most important include:

• Emotional support and companionship
• The confidence that comes from knowing that someone is regularly checking on your welfare
• Your independence is better maintained in your own home rather than having to go into a nursing home
• More choice
• Freedom to get out into the community with assistance.
