Hiring Part-Time care will mean your carer can be available once a week, a few times a week or for a couple of hours a day depending on what support you are looking for. If there is no need for you to require constant care throughout the day or week, then this type of care will be suitable for you. It will allow you to specify what care you need, and when you need it.

By using a private care agency such as Guardian Carers, we can also offer you a Housekeeper-Carer, which is the perfect hybrid of having a person who takes the responsibilities of your household duties, as well as assisting with your personal care. Your personal Housekeeper-Carer will be more flexible and are there to give you a helping hand wherever you may need it.

Respite care can also be provided for you or your loved one. Respite care allows you to be cared for within a set period of time, this can include personal and home care. In many situations, Respite care is often used for people if they have undergone an operation, or if their current private nursing carer is on annual leave. In addition, a Respite carer can also help with home transfers from the hospital for you or your loved one.

WHY IS IT BENEFICIAL TO HAVE A PRIVATE CARER FOR A YOUNG ADULT

One of the biggest benefits of deciding to get a personal, home carer for a young adult is that it enables the individual to be more flexible. As a young person, you may not want to feel restricted by the traditional set-up of a residential care home, which may be abnormal to you. This why our private care agency can provide you with a better and more comfortable option for a young adult. In particular, Live-In care will allow you or your loved one to remain safe and independent in your own environment.

All of our carers are highly trained and qualified to work in the care industry, therefore we will have the chance to tailor a care package that is best suited for a young person. We take the time to fully understand your unique needs and develop a plan that will support them both physically and mentall. Guardian Carers can provide you with specialist support for any medical condition or disability.

For a young adult, having your own carer will not only allow you to remain in your home, but you are also still surrounded by loved ones and precious memories. Your personal carer will always be on hand to help you with anything you need.

Your private carer can assist you with:

• Dispensing any medication
• Personal care and hygiene
• Keeping the house clean and tidy
• Organising and taking you to any appointments
• Cooking you meals and preparing snacks
• Going for walks in the park or around the neighbourhood
• Providing companionship

Personal, one-on-one care, whether it Full-Time or Part-Time, will be the most effective way to maintain your quality of life. The carer will focus on their day to day chores, while you focus on the more important things to you. This will ensure that young adults with ongoing care needs are still able to study if they are in education, and eventually find a fulfilling job. Whether the young adult is currently studying, or making the transition to university or the job world, our private carers for young people can be on hand to support the individual in all aspects of their personal and professional development.
