Frequently Asked Questions
How much does 24-hour care cost in Colchester?
The price of 24-hour homecare varies depending on the level of care needed. We offer tailored plans and a free assessment to help you understand the most suitable and cost-effective option.
Some families may be eligible for financial support from Essex County Council or their local authority. Funding can vary depending on circumstances, so we’re happy to talk you through the options and signpost you to relevant assessments or benefits that may help cover the cost of care.
Will I have the same Carers each time?
Wherever possible, yes. Continuity of care is very important to us. We do our best to ensure you or your loved one is supported by a small, consistent team of familiar Carers who understand your preferences and requirements.
Is 24-hour care only for older people?
Not at all. While many of our Clients are older adults, we provide 24-hour and other types of care packages for adults of all ages who need some extra support to stay safe and comfortable at home. There are many reasons someone may need 24-hour care, including long-term disabilities and illnesses, or it could be needed on a shorter-term basis due to recovery after surgery.
What is 24-hour homecare?
24-hour home care is a service which is ideal for those who need round-the-clock support or have complex medical needs that require continuous supervision. The support is delivered in the Client’s home, usually by Carers that work in shifts to ensure someone is always on hand when needed.
Our Carers go above and beyond practical assistance; we work with you to create a personalised care plan which incorporates your goals and personal interests. A Right at Home Carer can support you to complete activities, errands and shopping, amongst many other things. This tailored approach allows for control, choice, independence and peace of mind.
