People with complex and continuing care needs often need the help of highly skilled healthcare professionals and support workers. They have specific skills which are personalised for you.

Learning Difficulties Apasen Home and Community Services supports people with learning difficulties every day to achieve greater independence and fulfilment. We operate contracts specialising in supporting children and adults with learning disabilities. Our trained support staff provide services from personal care to escorting service users to and from day-centres or clubs. This gives respite to parents and carers living with the daily challenges of caring for a child or adult with challenging behaviour.

End-of-Life Care is a specialist area of healthcare for people with life-threatening illnesses. Our End-of-Life Care Service can be there for you at all possible stages of illness, including pre-diagnosis, diagnosis,treatment, cure, death and bereavement. We want to achieve the best quality of life for those suffering from a progressive illness and for their families

Our care staff visit elderly people in their homes to help with essential daily living tasks, ranging from shopping and cleaning to washing, changing sanitary wear and using the toilet. Typically, a care assistant will visit several people in succession every morning (and perhaps, also lunchtime or evening) and help them to get up and prepare for the day. Once or twice a week, they may shop and collect benefits on their behalf.

Would you like someone to come with you on an outing or taking part in an activity? We can provide you with a worker to support you in visiting your local shops, in a walk in the park or for a day out at your favourite place.

Although most of our work is with children and people with learning disabilities, we also support people with mental health problems who are living in the community. Typically, our support workers will help people with aspects of their daily living that they may find challenging or even impossible. This may mean accompanying a person to a day centre or classes, or helping with shopping, cleaning or washing clothes. Shifts tend to be longer than for elderly personal care..

We know that there is nothing quite like a holiday to recharge your batteries. And if you need regular care, you can still have a break. As part of our Holiday Care Service, a support worker can come with you on your holiday. This means both you and your family can relax, safe in the knowledge that you are getting the personal attention and support you need to get the most out of your break.
