Why Choose My Home Support Service?
Opting for a dedicated personal carer like me offers unique benefits compared to larger agencies.
When you choose Alnwick Care, you're choosing consistent, one-to-one support directly from me. This means I get to truly know you and your specific needs, preferences, and personality. I believe this builds a stronger, more trusting and effective caring relationship. You'll always know who is coming to your home, providing reliability and peace of mind.
My focus is entirely on providing dedicated, personalised care that is flexible and can adapt quickly to your changing requirements. It's important to note that my services are designed to offer non-regulated support and do not include personal care (such as bathing or dressing), nursing care, or medication administration. There are no shift changes or multiple unfamiliar faces. It's just me, committed to offering high-quality, compassionate support tailored precisely for you in the comfort of your own home.
