Specialist home support for complex care needs from trusted, qualified professionals

Advanced home care for complex needs

We offer specialist home care services to help people with complex care needs live confidently at home. Our Care Workers are highly trained and experienced in all fields of specialist care services, including learning difficulties, spinal cord injury, acquired brain injury, respiratory care and tube feeding. 

Our live-in and visiting care services also include overnight support where needed, so you can benefit from 24-hour complex care in your own home.  

When you get in touch with us, one of our experienced care advisors will work with you to understand your specific needs and discuss a personalised care package to fit your situation.. We can also arrange a free home visit or telephone call so we can fully understand your needs and requirements. 

Specialist treatments and interventions

Finding the right care for you or a loved one, especially when it concerns specialist treatments, can feel overwhelming. You want to make sure that every detail is handled with precision, genuine care and respect. Our complex care at home is designed not only to take care of physical needs, but also to give you peace of mind. 

Our specially trained carers can support you with the following treatments and interventions: 

  • Ventilator care. Our specialist care team is qualified to assist with BiPAP and CPAP ventilation at home. Whilst breathing support at home can feel daunting, our experienced carers are on hand to ensure everything runs smoothly.
  • Continence care. Maintaining dignity and privacy is at the heart of our continence care. Our compassionate carers can offer support with everything from assistance in going to the toilet to managing catheters and colostomy bags. You can count on respectful, professional support that puts your comfort first.
  • Tracheostomy care. Our skilled and professional team can support you managing a tracheostomy at home, from suctioning and cleaning to emergency response.
  • PEG-gastrostomy care. With a schedule that fits around your needs, we offer specialist support for patients with PEG tubes, to ensure that you receive the nutrients and medications you need.
  • Overnight care. Care needs don’t stop when the sun goes down, and neither does our overnight care support. We offer professional care throughout the night in the comfort of your own home

Our complex care teams will work closely with you to ensure every element of care is delivered safely, reliably and in a way that needs each individual’s personal preferences. Get in contact today to find out more about how we can support you to live confidently at home.  

Condition-specific complex care at home

Living with complicated health conditions or injuries can bring uncertainty and cause a great deal of emotional strain for primary caregivers and their loved ones. At the core of the advanced care we provide clients is a deep understanding of what that feels like on a day to day basis.  

Our specialist carers are trained to support a range of life-changing conditions and injuries, including: 

Beyond clinical expertise, what truly sets our team apart is their compassion, patience and commitment to building meaningful, respectful relationships with each person in their care. From managing symptoms and medication to emotional support and simply being a friendly face each day, the Abbots Care team provides dignity, comfort and an enhanced quality of life.  

 

“Abbots Care has been providing care in our home for my son with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy since September 2019. They are an amazing dedicated team of carers, taking time to get to know the family to ensure the best possible care is provided. They are professional in the care they provide while supporting my son emotionally and promoting independence during his teenage years. I would highly recommend Abbots to anyone needing care and support.”

Emily, Mother of Client

Angela R, Daughter of Abbots Care Client, Dorset

"Abbots Care responded quickly to our call, doing an assessment, and starting support the same day. The carers were flexible and compassionate with Dad, and Abbots handled changes smoothly when his situation shifted, including hospital and care home moves. Despite the short-term care, we felt valued and supported. The app kept the family updated, which was reassuring. I would definitely use them again if needed."

T.C, Son of Abbots Care Client, Buckinghamshire
