Cost of Care
How much is home care?
The costs of home care are determined by your specific requirements. Hourly rates apply to visiting care, while live-in care, also known as ’24-hour care’, is priced either with a daily rate for short-term respite or a weekly rate for continuous care. We can engage in conversations about tailoring the appropriate level of care to your needs and assessing the financial viability of home care for you and your loved ones.
Depending on your particular circumstance of course, you will be able to expand your care package to be as comprehensive as you need it to be. You can also streamline it to suit your budget. You may decide to include and exclude certain aspects of care, its up to you; we will work with you to reach a most desirable outcome for you. We will make sure you get the care you need at the price most suitable to your needs and circumstances.
Home care is a bespoke care option that lets you receive care in your own home.
Referred to as ‘care at home’, it offers the flexibility to receive care as little or as often as required – depending on your particular, unique individual needs
Whether you’d just like weekly care visits or require specialist care for a complex medical condition, home care is very often the best choice. Here are some of the many options we offer at Connect Provider
