Emergency Homecare offers online booking services for elderly and adult dependents. Whatever the care need your employee's loved one has and whoever provides it normally, Emergency Homecare will provide a qualified and sensitive carer when normal arrangements have let them down.

Why introduce a backup Homecare scheme?

• Relevant to all employees
  Employers are beginning to look at how they can support their employees who have the responsibility of looking after a parent, partner or friend. As we continue to live and work longer, there is an increasing need for business to embrace homecare responsibilities as well as childcare ones
  
  
• Help manage absenteeism
  Employees cannot suspend the relationship with the person they are responsible for, therefore an Emergency Homecare service can provide the reassurance that a person is being cared for while they are at work
  
  
• Work life balance
  Often an organisation's most experienced and valuable employees fit into a 'demographic pressure point'; of having both childcare issues and responsibility for elderly relatives, all at the same time, creating increased pressure on them to juggle work and home
  
  
• Cost effective
  We charge a set up and management fee, the level of employee contribution is up to you

How we work
Via Emergency Homecare, working parents can request a home assessment and booking through the website (www.emergencyhomecare.co.uk) or via a 24/7 booking line. Home Assessment is a necessary and legal requirement to ensure the correct level of care is provided. Company contributions are calculated automatically, depending on your Company Subsidy Agreement with us.

Who We Work With
We work with well established Care Agencies. They are all registered with the Commission for Social Care Inspection (and equivalent bodies in Scotland and Wales) with a rating of "good" or "excellent".


Costs
Include a Set Up fee, a monthly Management fee, and a Usage fee which is determined by Company Contribution.
