Alderson House

Libertas is a home care service, otherwise known as a domiciliary service.  We are registered and regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC).

What this means is that we can come and help you at home.  What this doesn't mean is that you are limited to staying in.  We can help with a whole range of things - from washing & dressing to gardening & shopping.  We believe that activity and social contact is a good thing, but we also understand that it can sometimes be daunting getting out and about.  So if there's a club or society, evening class or night club you've always fancied trying, why not let us know?

Getting help at home can feel like a big step, and it's not always straight forward.  We can offer a range of options to suit you, and can talk to you about all those things that seem complicated - like 'How will they get in to my house?'  or 'How will I know who is coming?'.  It's your home and your service, no question is unimportant.

We can also offer help and advice with funding, and put you on the right track with Individual Budget, Direct Payments, Social Services or self-funding options.

Reliability and consistency are central to a home care service.  You need to know who is coming, and when. We undertake to ensure, wherever possible that you are visited by the same person or people, and if someone else has to come because of illness or holiday, you will have met that person before.

Libertas is currently registered to provide services to people between the ages of 18 to 65.  We can still help if you are older than this, but we are not able to provide personal care if you are over 65 - yet.  We will shortly apply to change our registration to lift this limitation.

We do not charge for answering questions.  Please do get in touch; you can visit us or we will come to see you and talk things through.
