Care should never be rushed and we don’t believe in cutting corners. That’s why all our home care visits have minimum time durations, giving our team the time to support each client to the full extent.
Our rate is starting from £39.50 per hour, and that includes thoughtful, unhurried care that focuses on each person’s overall wellbeing – not just a checklist of tasks.
How Home Care in Dunblane works:
Initial Consultation and Assessment
Every journey begins with a thorough consultation. We take the time to meet with you and your family to understand your needs, routines, preferences, and expectations. This helps us build a clear picture of what kind of support is needed.
Personalised Care Planning
Following the assessment, we create a tailored care plan for you. The plan outlines exactly what care will be provided, when, and by whom. It is flexible and reviewed regularly to ensure it stays relevant as needs change.
Consistent Care Team
You'll be matched with a small team of carers who will get to know you and your preferences.
Regular Reviews
We'll check in regularly to ensure your practical support continues to meet your needs.
