Beyond all of the practical support we offer for elderly people living at home, we offer invaluable companionship.

This considered matching service allows for a true friendship to forge between Client and CareGiver.

Debra B | Daughter of Client"Every aspect of this service is first class. Setting up the visits was very personal, taking into account Mum’s needs, ensuring she was given choice in the type of care to be given.

Why is elderly care important?
Needing a little help is an inevitable part of getting older. Regardless of healthcare needs or specialist requirements, the structure of our lives change as we reach old age. Elderly care enables people to continue living as they choose, and where they choose, with extra support as and when they need it.
DID YOU KNOW? Derbyshire’s ageing population will result in the number of people aged 65 and over increasing by 58.5% by 2039. In the same period the number of people aged 90 and over will treble. This also means there will be an increase in the demand for care.
By offering homecare for elderly people in their own home, we enable our Clients to maintain dignity and independence in familiar surroundings. Elder care is important for many, as a way of completing practical, day-to-day activities safely. For many older people across Derby, it is often vital for combating loneliness.
For Clients with dementia, elderly care at home is vital for providing a calm, reassuring and familiar structure. For others, elder care offers comfort, knowing that there’s always someone you can rely on.
