FAQs about home carers

 For more information about home carers, please refer to our FAQs below.

1. What are the benefits of home carers?

Home carers are compassionate and skilled healthcare professionals who deliver care to someone in their own home. Choosing a home carer can allow you to maintain your independence and receive care at home whilst maintaining your lifestyle and hobbies.

Home carers can provide many benefits for the individual receiving care as well as their family, including:

  • Making regular home visits
  • Providing companionship
  • Carrying out errands
  • Helping with personal care
  • Supporting you to stay active and mobile
  • Completing household duties
  • Delivering bespoke medical care and assistance

 

2. What is the difference between home carers and home nurses?

The key difference between home carers and home nurses is the type of care delivered. Home carers provide general care and assistance, whereas home nurses deliver more specialist care that is better suited for someone with a clinical condition or complex medical requirements.

 

3. How much does a home carer cost? 

The cost of a home carer can change depending on what you’re looking for and your circumstances. Key factors that can contribute to the cost of a home carer are:

  • The location of your home
  • The type of care you require, such as general assistance, medical care or companionship
  • The home carer agency you choose
  • The hours of care you require a home carer

 

At CHS, we understand that the cost of care can be a key factor when looking for the perfect home care arrangement.

Our home care selection service ensures we match you to home carers that best meet your personal requirements and circumstances such as cost, location, the hours you require care and much more.
