Children and young people
Caring for children and young people in their own home is always preferable.
We support children and younger people, from the age of 4 years and over, to live safely and comfortably in the home they know and love.
We provide attentive day-to-day care, encouraging continuity, independence and establishing daily routines.
There are many reasons a parent or carer of a child or young person might benefit from extra support at home, and CAHG’s support workers can bring a raft of expertise and skills to any situation.
Perhaps you’re going into hospital and your child or young person needs looking after while you’re away, or maybe your child or young person is recovering from an illness, has disabilities, autism or behaviours that challenge and you need professional experienced support to help?
Whatever the reason, our support workers are professionally trained to provide the skilled services.
Our services are person centred and we will work closely with children, young people and their families to ensure we are providing a high standard of quality personalised care. We aim to support with all aspects of life including personal care, social interaction, independence, and education.
Our in-house nurses and clinicians work collaboratively with our own care team as well as external organisations such as, local authorities, NHS services, multidisciplinary teams (MDT), therapists and other community bodies to ensure that we provide the highest quality care,
Care packages for children and young people.
We can provide bespoke short and long-term home care services for your child or young person with full flexibility providing the right level of support for when it is needed most.
Live-in Care
Ongoing daily and night time support in your home. This kind of support benefits the whole family. The support worker can observe how the family works together as a unit and offer ways of coping and useful routines. The worker can also support with tasks and step in at night time to ensure the main carer has a good night’s sleep. If a parent has to go into hospital for a time one of our care assistants can live-in your home on a short-term basis.
Day Services
Designed to provide regular, tailored visits throughout the day. This kind of support is ideal for those needing little and often. Day services are particularly useful for encouraging older children to lead independent lives, including supporting activities outside the home, such as shopping and cinema trips or visits to meet friends, and teaching home-based life skills such as cooking and cleaning.
Personal Care
Our carers can support your child or young person in maintaining their personal appearance and hygiene, including toileting, dressing and grooming support. This is especially useful for developing a routine in children or young people with behavioural problems.
