Promedica24

Friendly companions at home
Have you considered companion care for you or your loved one? Flexible live-in care, provided at home, helps you stay living in the place you prefer for as long as possible, whether elderly, disabled or vulnerable, to take the strain out of many activities like, for example, shopping, cleaning or cooking.

Companion care services provided by Promedica24 is likely to be your perfect solution. You can engage a live-in carer for company and support for as few or as many hours that you prefer. You (or a loved one) can then rest easy knowing help is always near at hand.

Who to choose for companion care?
We select companion carers based on our customers’ interests, personality and lifestyle, to provide a suitable fit. You or loved ones can then continue living at home to enjoy a better quality of daily life enjoying the benefits of our 24-hour live-in care service. You’re able to keep the same companion for up to three months before choosing another home carer (your original companion may return for an additional period).

Companion carers won’t take over your home – they are simply there to make life easier. For example, they can plan and prepare meals or assist with washing and cleaning-related tasks; it’s your choice how involved they get. Our clients will never be lonely or isolated, but they are able to take some “me” time whenever they choose.

A helping hand at home when you need it most
Recovery from stays in hospital or unexpected illnesses is understandably easier when short term help can be arranged at home. Promedica24 can provide such respite care for periods of 2-to-6 weeks to aid a smooth recovery and comfortable transition back to health.

Everyone needs a rest from time-to-time and our respite care service offers vital temporary relief for many people (such as relatives and friends who have voluntarily taken on a carer role).

Imagine having someone trustworthy who can take over the reins so that you can enjoy a holiday or a much needed break from being a care worker. You can return feeling rejuvenated and always aware that it’s possible to call on our respite care help any time in the future.

Caring isn’t just our profession, it’s our vocation and passion; our carers are here to make life as bearable as possible at the most difficult of times. Promedica24 provides respite care near you, 24-hours-a-day, seven-days-a-week.

Respite care for end-of-life
Respite assistance is also available for end-of-life care to support families and friends at what can be an extremely emotional and traumatic time. Our live-in care workers alleviate some of the challenging burden, managing daily support tasks in the background, allowing you to spend precious time with your loved one.

We understand short-term respite care services can often be required with just a few days’ notice. Because of this, we ensure we act as swiftly as possible. After an in-home care assessment, we can gauge care needs, draw a shortlist of live-in carers and then place your chosen care worker(s) in the home within as little as 3-to-5 days

When selecting a care worker for you or your loved one, we don’t just select based on skills relevant to your particular health needs. We also aim to match carers to your interests, personality and lifestyle so that we can select care workers for you to choose from who are a good fit.

Rapid response home care
Do you have emergency or urgent care needs? Contact Promedica24 now to arrange swift, almost immediate urgent live-in care. We respond quickly – but you are still able to consider a suitable selection of care workers.

To choose a live-in carer you are happy with, it is important to complete our in-home care assessment. Matters such as appropriate interests, personality and lifestyle are considered before several matches drawn up.

We aim to find a suitable live-in care worker in as little as 3-5 days. After choosing someone who seems a good match, home care can start immediately; exactly where you belong and prefer to be.

We can supply fully trained care workers to support loved ones as quickly, and often quicker, than trying to organise care with family and relations. Our care workers also come with knowledge and experience to support specific health and recuperation needs.

Urgent care for recovery
When medical emergencies strike it can be traumatic. Whatever might cause the need for urgent home care, many of our clients feel their confidence has been badly shaken. So our live-in care workers work to help re-build strength and resilience.

You may not need our service for long and that’s fine, but you may find one of our companion care workers offers comfort and ongoing support after our emergency live-in care services are no longer required.
