If you, or someone you love needs a helping hand, elderly care services may be able to help.
As we get older, our physical and mental abilities start to gradually deteriorate. It’s a fact of life, and one that My Care My Home is very familiar with.
Thankfully, our team of experts are able to provide you with the support you need to make the right decision about elderly care.
Whether you’re looking for elderly home care or a qualified private carer, our years of experience means that we are able to put you in touch with the right people to help fulfil your needs.
What is Elderly Care?
Elderly care is a specialised type of residential or home care service for elderly citizens. It covers many aspects of daily life, such as meal preparation, personal care, medication, and companionship.
There are two main types of elderly care:
Residential Care
Residential care is a caregiving format that is typically delivered through traditional care homes. Sometimes referred to as assisted living, residential care provides occupants with round-the-clock care and support for more demanding circumstances.
Domiciliary Care
Domiciliary care is usually required when individuals wish to continue living in their homes. This type of care is best suited to less demanding situations, while still providing assistance with complicated tasks.
Who is Elderly Care For?
Whether you’re acting on someone’s behalf, or looking for care yourself, My Care My Home is able to help you find the services you require.

“I love my carers, they always know what I like best without them even asking me! I look forward to their visits because they are the company I wait for each day. They make me laugh and I know they like to see me too because of the way they care for me.”

How it Works
The entire process begins with a phone call. Simply ring our freephone number and a friendly advisor will be on-hand to discuss the various options available.
1. Consultation
At this stage, we will work with you to determine your objectives and solve any problems you are facing. This will ultimately form the level of service you receive and is a fundamental step in allowing us to help you.
2. Information and Guidance
We pass on as much valuable information as possible for the duration of your time with us. This helps to keep you both up to date and in control of your care.
3. Future Plan
We like to keep track of our progress for both ours and your benefit. This allows us to see exactly how you want to be supported and whether or not we can achieve what you’re looking for. From this point on, we will conduct frequent check-ins to ensure you’re still satisfied and that everything is going to plan.
How Long Does it Take?
Sourcing an appropriate provider via our Shortlisting Care Providers service can take as little as one day. So, if your needs are urgent, we can do our best to help.
