CCS009/2017 Home Care Service for Adults Aged 18+

The home care service aims to provide support on a short or ongoing basis to the service user's maximum ability and potential and, if required, to support on-going maintenance of health and wellbeing. This is in accordance with the Council's strategy for adult social care to ensure that Service Users can remain in their own homes for as long as possible precluding the need for residential/nursing care. The service is delivered in people's own homes and enables them to return to or remain living independently. It is a service crucial in supporting discharge from hospital and preventing unnecessary hospital or residential care admission.
