Voug Care

Visiting care offers the support you want, when you need it, so you can continue living from the comfort of your own home. With help from as little as half an hour a week and up to several visits a day, a visiting carer can make all the difference.

From support with your medication and going to the toilet through to knowing your favourite meal and whether you prefer a bath or shower, our fully regulated visiting care service lets you continue living the life you want, on your terms.

We know that asking for help can be difficult at times. We’re here to talk you through your visiting care options and the full costs. Call us today to speak to one of our friendly customer advisors.

If you’re in need of some extra care, speak to our specialist team to get the right level of support for you. With us, your support can easily lessen or grow as your needs change – from a 30-minute visit through to round-the-clock live-in care with a fully trained care assistant.

Enrolling your elderly friend or loved one into in-home care provides a much needed rest for you, and provides them with supported living to keep them independent at home.

We know that it can be very difficult to ask for help and a daunting prospect to have someone come into your home that you aren’t familiar with. That’s why our friendly team at Voug Care are here to talk you through your care options and provide peace of mind for you and your loved ones.

When admitted to the hospital, you may look forward to returning to your own home, to recuperate in the place where you feel most comfortable and relaxed.

With increased care requirements, you may fear that you will not be able to go home and instead will need to move into a nursing or residential home.

Our Hospital to Home service, can enable you to return home after a stay in the hospital. We can help you settle back into your familiar surroundings.

Whether you require a high level of care or just a little support with activities of daily living during your recuperation period, as part of our hospital to home service, we can provide a healthcare assistant or support worker to assist you.

Caring for a loved one is a role that demands a lot of commitment and selflessness, that can take up a lot of emotional and physical energy. It is understandable that at times you will need a break in order to rest and recuperate. In fact, it is important that you take time for yourself every now and then in order to relax and ensure that you can continue to provide the high-quality care that your loved one requires.

However, the prospect of leaving your loved one whilst you take a short break from your role or go on holiday can be a daunting one as you want to ensure that your loved one is still well cared for. During this time, you may consider hiring a short-term, part-time or live-in carer to care for loved one whilst you are away.

Respite Care ensures that your loved one’s care and support needs are still met in your absence. This can be less disruptive than putting your loved one into temporary residential care as it means routines continue and that your loved one can remain in familiar surroundings with their local support system. Love Care Service respite carers understand that allowing someone else to come into your home can be a tough decision and as such they, recognise the importance of planning this temporary care around your needs, with minimal disruption.

Respite Care can last anywhere from a few days to several weeks depending on your particular needs. Of course, respite care isn’t only available for when you need a break – it can be provided in an emergency situation if you become ill or have to go into hospital at short notice. Respite Care can also be invaluable if you and your loved one want to try out home care for a short period to see whether it works for you.

As with our other care services, respite care can provide support for various conditions including Alzheimer’s, Multiple Sclerosis, Strokes, Cancer, and more. We can help you find temporary live-in or part-time respite care. This has the dual benefit of being more affordable than residential care and keeping your loved one in their own home.

If you think you may need Respite Care, you may want to ask some of the following questions:

Do you provide part-time or full-time to your loved one?
Does your loved one need help while you are away or on a break?
Do you need a short break from your responsibilities as a carer?
Do you want your loved one to stay in their home whilst you are away?
What are your loved one’s specific needs?

When faced with illness or immobility, it can be a struggle to carry out everyday activities that you may have once performed with ease.

Our discreet personal care service is designed to support you with your day-to-day living, as well as providing you with the encouragement and emotional support that you may need to remain living independently.
