Birmingham Care

What can a Care Agency in Birmingham offer?

A care agency in Birmingham such as Guardian Carers can provide you with carers that allow you to remain in the home you love, surrounded by the people you love and the memories you have created for as long as possible. Here at Guardian Carers, our Birmingham care services are tailored specifically to you and your individual requirements. Your personalised carer can help you with almost anything from personal care and wellbeing to household chores or simply there to exchange stories over a cup of tea!

Being in the care industry for over 14 years, we understand that every individual is unique and requires different levels of support, which is why we have available a range of different types of care packages. We are able to offer you care in the form of Full Time or Part Time and either as Live In or Live Out. Live-In care, is the most comprehensive home care as should you need, care can be offered as round the clock, 24-hour care 7 days a week. Typically live-in care is the step before entering into care or residential home. We also provide Housekeeper Carers who do a mixture of both household chores and personal care or Companion Housekeepers who are there to share each other’s stories over a cup of tea or accompany you to events.

Home care in Birmingham can also be available on a temporary basis, for instance, if your current carer has time off if you have just had an operation and need some assistance while you recover.

Guardian Carers can also provide specialised care for those who are battling long term progressive illnesses such as Parkinson's or Alzheimer's. Dealing with an illness can be extremely overwhelming and unsettling and we believe there is no place like home when recovering or going through life-altering changes. We can provide you with carers with medical training and nursing qualifications to ensure you are able to receive the right support whilst remaining in your home.

Helping you to find your perfect carer in Birmingham

We not only want to provide you with the very best carers but offer you a carer who can become an important companion to you. There are three stages Guardian Carers undergo to help find you your perfect carer.

Firstly, there is a free consultation in which, our consultants can suggest what type of care would best suit you and your needs. During this consultation, they would understand what you like to do, your morals and interests to ensure we match you with a carer who has similar attributes to you.

Next, we will provide you with sample profiles of candidates we think will best be suited to you. We will arrange interviews for you at times that are most convenient for you. Guardian Carers can offer you interview tips and some key questions you may want to ask, to ensure you get the most out of your interview. After your interview, we will ask for your feedback to amend the search should you require.

Once you have found the Birmingham carer you like the most, we can offer you sample contracts and help you through all the paperwork required when hiring a carer such as hours and pay. We can also sign your up to our payroll service and HMRC. We are proud to provide a 360 service to all our families.
