Sitting Services
Continuous support at home, delivered by experts in care.
When taking care of yourself on your own becomes too difficult, it can feel like you’re totally losing your independence. Without support, many senior people are required to leave their own home which is often the place where they feel most comfortable. But moving into a retirement home isn’t the right choice for everyone. For many, it would mean losing a vital connection with family, friends and their communities.
Coral Care wants everyone to have access to the type of care that’s most suitable for them. Our Sitting Service provides you or a loved one with support from personal care assistants twenty-four hours a day. Care responsibilities are divided between two primary carers who will be there to support throughout the day and night.
What are Sitting Services?
Our Sitting Service is similar to Live-In Care. The key difference is that your care assistants do not live in your home – instead, you will receive two extended visits per day.
Our Sitting Service provides service users with continuous support throughout the day and night. Care is delivered in two 12-hour instalments, with a day care and night care assistant there to support you at all times. While they’ll help you to carry out your daily activities, your assistants will also respect your boundaries and will understand if you would prefer to carry out certain activities on your own.
Who are Sitting Services for?
Our Sitting Service is suitable for older people who want to remain in their homes, but who cannot do so without additional care provision. It has been designed for those who would prefer their care assistants not to live with them, but who require round-the-clock support.
This service is likely to suit people who need a higher level of care provision. For those with occasional care needs, the domiciliary care service may be more appropriate.
