Introductory live-in care services
Care that works with you to look after your loved ones
- Carers available now
An attractive choice for people who want to be more involved in the care of their loved one.
With our introductory service you engage a self-employed professional carer. Christies Care will have selected that person (currently only 1% applicants get through) making sure that they are suitable. All the carers will have gone through Christies Care’s two-week Princes Royal Accredited training course, so we are sure they have the right skills.
A self-employed carer is perfect in situations where there are family and friends around to be involved. Take Fidelity Cranbrook, whose family could no longer look after her yet lived close by. They could delegate the caring to the self-employed carers, and see her as a mother again, rather than someone to be looked after.
