A Deep Dive into Private Care

Unlike the traditional agency setup, private care provides a personal experience that puts you in the driver's seat. It enables you to select a carer whose personality and expertise align with your needs.

Consistency is Key

One of the top advantages of private care is the consistency it offers. There is peace of mind in knowing that the same person will be providing your care each day. With PrimeCarers, you get the final say on who comes into your home, thus ensuring your comfort and confidence in the services provided. There's a familiar face, a repeatedly helpful hand, and the assurance that your needs will be remembered and met. This consistent care promotes trust and a more profound therapeutic relationship between the carer and the client.

Affordability Matters

Private care, contrary to common belief, is an affordable option. With fee structures like 12.5% for live-in care and 15-20% for hourly care provided by PrimeCarers, it becomes a cost-effective solution that doesn't compromise on quality. Understanding the Cost of Home Care in North Lanarkshire further highlights the value proposition of private care.

Comfort of Your Own Home

Staying at home is comforting for many people as it allows them to maintain a familiar environment and routine. Private care facilitates this home-centred approach which often results in better health outcomes. From being surrounded by cherished objects to enjoying the freedom to follow personal routines and interests, the benefits of home care are extensive.

The Perfect Match System

A Breakthrough Matching Strategy

Choosing the right carer can be complicated. You need someone reliable, skilled and amiable. PrimeCarers’ Perfect Match system, which connects you with the right carer using over 80 factors, simplifies this critical process. These factors include your care needs, personality type, and any specific skills required of the carer. Character and compatibility play as important a role as credentials and capabilities.

Ideal for Couples

Private care is also a viable and affordable solution for couples who want to support each other in their own home environment. With the average cost of £1,218 per week, both parents can enjoy personalised and expert care with PrimeCarers.

North Lanarkshire Living

Apart from professional home care, private carers can also accompany clients to local attractions around North Lanarkshire. For instance, visiting Strathclyde Country Park or Summerlee Museum of Scottish Industrial Life can be a fascinating change of pace and provides a great opportunity for social interaction and engagement.

Comparing Private Care with Agency Care

Agency care traditionally caters to a broad client base, and while it serves a purpose, there are clear advantages in turning to private care.

Fee Structure

When compared with agency care, private care offers a more cost-effective solution. While agencies tend to take a 30-50% cut of the fee you pay, PrimeCarers’ cost structure sits significantly lower, reflecting the commitment to affordable care.

Choice of Carers

As opposed to agencies where choice may be limited, the power of selection is in your hands with private care. You have the chance to meet your carer, discuss your expectations, and ensure they are someone you can trust and feel comfortable with.

Flexibility

Traditional agencies can be overly structured, and sometimes carers are not willing to do any activity outside of their strictly defined care plan. On the other hand, private carers are flexible and can accommodate client needs more readily, ensuring a personalised, client-centred approach.

Carer Consistency

With high staff turnover common in agencies, clients often find themselves dealing with changing carers, disrupting the continuity and bond of care. Unlike this, private care allows for a consistent carer, which significantly improves care quality and relationships.

In conclusion, private care offers a plethora of benefits for those seeking support in North Lanarkshire. It allows for reliable, flexible, and cost-effective care, delivered by chosen carers in the comfortable surroundings of home.
