Age Concern Surrey - Home Force

Hometime

Age Concern Surrey’s Hometime service provides domestic support to older people to enable them to live independently at home for as long as possible.

There are 12 Care Advisers who organise the service, each with their own area, thus covering the whole county. The Care Adviser visits the person’s home to discuss:

The domestic help required
Hours needed (up to 4 hours per week/ 1 – 2 visits per week)
Cost
Equipment required
Holiday/sickness arrangements
Insurance

The Care Adviser will then introduce a suitable home help who has been reference checked and has a CRB clearance.

Home helps are able to assist with the following:

Housework (dusting, hovering, bedmaking, kitchen and bathrooms)
Laundry
Shopping
Prescription collection
Preparation of light snacks

Home helps are paid at the agreed hourly rate and a small service charge is payable to Age Concern Surrey.
