Live-out / Visiting Care at Home

The right option depends on the level of support required and how often that support is needed. Our team can help assess your circumstances and recommend the most appropriate option based on your needs, goals, and lifestyle.

For some individuals, a small number of visits each week provides enough assistance to maintain independence and manage daily routines. Others may require several visits throughout the day, while some people eventually benefit from a live-in care arrangement.

One of the advantages of visiting care is its flexibility. Support can often be increased gradually as needs change, allowing individuals to receive the right level of assistance without committing to a more intensive package of care from the outset.

Yes. Many of the individuals we support have complex needs arising from conditions such as brain injury, spinal cord injury, neurological conditions, respiratory needs, physical disabilities, autism or mental health conditions.

In many cases, these needs do not exist in isolation. Individuals may require support across multiple areas of their health and wellbeing, which is why we take a coordinated approach involving families, professionals, and multidisciplinary teams wherever appropriate.

Absolutely. Returning home can be one of the most important milestones in a person's recovery journey, but it can also bring uncertainty and new challenges.

Visiting care can provide support during this transition by helping individuals rebuild routines, maintain rehabilitation goals, attend appointments, and adjust to life at home.

For many people, having the right support in place makes the transition feel more manageable and provides reassurance for both the individual and their family.

Supporting independence is at the heart of everything we do. Our role is not to do everything for someone, but to provide the support they need while encouraging them to remain as active and involved in daily life as possible.

For some individuals, independence may mean returning to work or education. For others, it may involve maintaining routines, spending time with family and friends, continuing hobbies or participating in community activities.

We recognise that building trust and consistency is incredibly important. Where possible, we aim to provide continuity in the people delivering care, helping individuals build positive relationships with their support team and feel comfortable with the care they receive.

Consistency can be particularly important for people living with a neurological condition, autism, a brain injury, or a mental health condition, where familiarity and routine can have a significant impact on wellbeing.

Many people's care needs change over time, whether because of recovery, progression of a condition or a change in personal circumstances.

Our support is regularly reviewed to ensure it continues to meet the individual's needs and aspirations. This may involve increasing visits, adjusting the type of support provided, or introducing additional specialist expertise.

As part of Active Care Group, we can also help individuals, families and professionals explore wider support options if circumstances change significantly, helping provide continuity and reassurance for the future.

Yes. Our services are regulated by the relevant care regulators, including the Care Quality Commission (CQC) in England and the Care Inspectorate Wales (CIW) in Wales.

This provides reassurance that care is delivered within robust clinical, governance and safeguarding frameworks, and is regularly assessed against recognised standards for quality, safety and effectiveness.

Active Assistance is registered for both Personal Care and the Treatment of Disease, Disorder or Injury, reflecting our ability to support individuals with complex health needs as well as day-to-day care requirements.

Your first conversation doesn't need to be a commitment to care.

We will take time to understand your situation, answer any initial questions, and discuss the support you may need. From there, we can arrange an assessment and recommend a care plan tailored to the individual.

Funding arrangements vary depending on individual circumstances.

Live-out care may be funded privately, through NHS Continuing Healthcare, local authority funding, direct payments, case management arrangements or personal injury and insurance settlements.

Our team can help explain the different options available and guide you through the process.
