What is this service?

Through a combination of personalised, high-quality care and clinical governance we help children, young people and their families manage complex care needs in the comfort of their homes.

We work closely with families, schools, funding bodies and other healthcare professionals involved in complex care provision for children and young adults. This holistic approach means our care is consistent and can adapt as your child grows and develops.

Truly personalised complex care

We understand every child is different, so we tailor our care packages to meet individual needs. This includes more than just support to manage complex care needs.

Our person-centred approach takes interests, goals and family dynamics into consideration too when delivering care.

This includes involving children and young people where appropriate, working with their families and collaborating with their healthcare professionals to provide truly personalised complex care.

Quality and clinical governance

They create bespoke care plans and support you with child-related care meetings, ensuring the complex care your child receives is responsive, safe and effective.
