Partnering with you

for a happier healthier future

SHA Care Services operates under the regulatory framework set by the Care Quality Commission (CQC), defined as an Introductory Care Provider in accordance with the Health & Social Care Act 2008. Unlike traditional care agencies, SHA Care Services does not directly manage your care. Instead, SHA Care Services specialise in vetting and matching self-employed carers with individuals seeking personalised care solutions. This unique approach ensures that you maintain direct control over the care you receive, allowing for a more tailored and responsive care experience.

Bridging the Gap Between You and Quality Care

Understanding the Role of an Introductory Care Provider

An Introductory Care Provider, as defined by the CQC, is distinct from a traditional care provider. SHA Care Services' role is to facilitate the connection between you and self-employed carers who can meet your specific care needs. SHA Care Services does not employ these carers; rather, we introduce them to you, ensuring they meet our rigorous standards of quality and reliability. This model provides you with the autonomy to select and manage your carer, fostering a partnership based on mutual respect and understanding.

Taking Control of Your Care

Empowering You to Lead Your Care

The essence of SHA Care Services' model is empowerment. By placing you at the helm of your care, SHA Care Services ensure that your preferences and requirements are prioritised. You have the freedom to decide who enters your home and assists you with daily activities. This control extends to every aspect of your care, from personal care routines to managing risks and ensuring continuity of care. You are not just a recipient of care; you are an active participant in shaping how it is delivered.

Your Trusted Care Partners

The Care Partnership Team

SHA Care Services' Care Partnership Team is dedicated to supporting you throughout your care journey. While you maintain control over your care, the SHA Care Services team is available to provide guidance, answer questions, and offer assistance when needed. This collaborative approach ensures that you are never alone in managing your care. SHA Care Services are here to help you navigate any challenges that may arise and to ensure that your experience is positive and fulfilling.

Simplified Care Solutions

Directly Connect with Trusted Self-Employed Carers

One of the key features of our service is that you contract directly with your chosen self-employed carer. This arrangement is clearly outlined in the terms and conditions you agree upon. By working directly with your carer, you establish a personal and professional relationship that is tailored to your specific needs. This direct contracting model ensures transparency and fosters a sense of trust and accountability between you and your carer.

Personalised Support Starts Here

Building Your Ideal Care Team

Managing your own care does not mean you are alone in this journey. Often, family members or trusted individuals are involved in supporting you and working alongside your chosen carer. This team approach allows for comprehensive care management, addressing all aspects of your daily needs. Whether it's coordinating schedules, managing personal care, or addressing any concerns, you have the support of a team committed to your well-being.

Custom Care Solutions

Personalised Care Management

At SHA Care Services, we understand that each individual's care needs are unique. SHA Care Services' introductory model allows for a high degree of personalisation. You can work with your carer to develop care plans that reflect your preferences, routines, and lifestyle. This personalised approach ensures that the care you receive is not only effective but also aligns with your values and expectations.

Choice, Control, and Quality

Discover the Advantages of Self-Employed Carers

Choosing self-employed carers through an introductory care provider like SHA Care Services offers several advantages. Self-employed carers often bring a high level of commitment and flexibility to their work. They are motivated to provide quality care because their reputation and livelihood depend on it. Additionally, this model allows for more consistent and continuous care, as you have the opportunity to build a long-term relationship with your carer.

Care that Moves with You

Flexible and Responsive Support

One of the significant benefits of managing your own care is the flexibility it offers. You are not bound by the schedules and protocols of a traditional care provider. Instead, you can work directly with your carer to adjust care routines as needed. This responsiveness ensures that your carer can adapt to changing circumstances, providing a more dynamic and effective care experience.

Trust in Every Detail

Ensuring Quality and Reliability

While you have control over selecting your carer, SHA Care Services is committed to ensuring that all carers in our network meet high standards of quality and reliability. SHA Care Services conduct thorough vetting processes, including background checks and interviews, to ensure that the carers we introduce to you are trustworthy and competent. This ensures that you can make informed decisions when choosing your carer.

SHA Care Services offers a unique approach to care that prioritises your autonomy and preferences. By functioning as an Introductory Care Provider, SHA Care Services empower you to take control of your care, ensuring that it is delivered in a way that meets your needs and expectations. SHA Care Services' model fosters a collaborative partnership between you, your chosen carer, and our support team, creating a care experience that is personalised, bespoke, flexible, and responsive. With SHA Care Services, you are not just a recipient of care; you are the leader of your care journey, making decisions that shape your daily life and well-being.

Your Care Deserves the Best
