Care at home for those with Long-Term Conditions

Often, people with long-term conditions may need someone with them 24 hours a day to provide long-term home care in case an intervention, for medical or for safety reasons, is required.

Why care at home with some delegated nursing tasks is important

People with a long term care (LTC) often want to live at home and avoid a nursing home. We recognise that LTC’s affect people differently, and not turn the person’s home into a clinical setting to keep things ‘normalised’. It is important that care is adapted to suit the needs of the individual. Here are some examples of the LTC’s we support:

Dementia: Advanced Alzheimer's, Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD) and Lewy Body dementia (LBD or DLB)
Neuromuscular conditions; Parkinson’s, Muscular Dystrophy, Huntington’s Disease, Dystonia
Auto-immune conditions; Multiple Sclerosis, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Lupus
Brain Injury; Stroke, Locked-In Syndrome, Brain Tumour, Encephalitis, Aneurysm, Epilepsy
Chronic Regional Pain Syndrome
Mental Health Conditions, including Somatoform, Anxiety, Depression
Palliative/End of Life Care
Learning Disabilities, Autism, Asperger’s
Spinal injuries

What our clients say about our care at home service:

I have benefited from the service from Aster Care for a few months now and have found them to be extremely friendly and helpful, also they have gone above and beyond to find the right match of carer for my mum as she has some little difficulties communicating. It's been a great experience so far.

All my carers look after and treat me so well. They also go above and beyond the call of duty, the management are so kind and friendly and also keep me updated on any changes. 10 out of 10 from me.

All of the staff that I've met from Aster have been very friendly and really care about what they do which makes a huge difference. They're always very approachable and communication is great. I'm very happy with the support I'm receiving from Aster and would definitely recommend the company to others.
