Caring For Adults and Older People

Most adults with complex care needs want to live at home whether that is with family or independently in their own home.

Our Approach

At Ocean Healthcare our care teams provide professional, safe and effective care for people suffering from long-term conditions, mobility issues, spinal injuries, medication support through to dementia care or in-home palliative care.

Our approach is always to put the person at the centre of everything we do and ensure every client has their own personalised care plans.  Our care teams liaise closely with an individual, their healthcare professionals and where appropriate their family to ensure that they receive the right care.   Our teams will consider all aspects of the care required not just the needs of their condition, this includes supporting other family members and enabling them to lead as normal a life as possible.

Funding For Care At Home

Generally Complex Care at home for adults in the UK is funded in the following ways:

  • NHS Continuing Healthcare funding – the NHS may cover some costs to provide complex care for medical or healthcare needs subject to as assessment and meeting their eligibility requirements.

  • Local authority funding – your local authority may pay for all or some personal and social care. This is subject to a free means test.

  • Self-funding or private funding – the person being cared for, their family or a third-party (ie Insurance firm) pays for all or most of the costs for the care.

At Ocean Healthcare we have experience of caring for people using a combination of funding routes or exclusively self-funded.  We also care for people who receive funding from a third part funded.
