Simple 3-Step Journey

Care that starts with a conversation

Arranging care for yourself or someone you love can feel like a big step. You don't need to have everything worked out before you contact us.

Step 1: Let's talk
Step 1

Let’s talk

Call us, request a callback or complete our online enquiry form. Tell us as much or as little as you feel comfortable sharing. We'll listen to what's happening, understand what you're looking for and answer your questions.

There is no obligation to arrange care.
Step 2: We'll meet you at home
Step 2

We'll meet you at home

We'll arrange a convenient time to meet you and your family at home. We'll talk about your routines, preferences, daily life, what matters to you and where you may need some extra support.

We'll consider relevant risks, mobility needs and practical considerations so we can understand what good support would look like for you.

Step 3: Care begins

Care begins

Your Care, Your Way

Following the assessment, we'll agree the support that best meets your needs, including the type of care, frequency and times of visits. We'll explain your care plan and costs clearly before anything begins.

Where possible, we'll introduce you to a small, consistent team of carers who are well suited to your needs, preferences and personality.

You or family remains involved in the decisions.

We're here beyond the first visit

Your needs may change. Your circumstances may change. And your care should be able to change with you. We'll keep in touch, review your care regularly and listen to feedback from you and your family.

If something isn't working, tell us. We'll listen and work with you to put it right.

The Prime Years Difference

More than a care plan

"Good care isn't just about completing tasks. It's about knowing how someone likes their tea, knowing when they want company and when they want quiet, knowing what makes them smile, and knowing that the person arriving at the door is someone they can trust."

At Prime Years Care Agency, we believe the best care is personal, consistent and built around the individual.

🛡️

People you can trust

Our recruitment process includes appropriate background checks, references and training before a carer joins our team.

🤝

Care that respects independence

We support people to remain involved in their own decisions, routines and everyday lives.

💬

A team that listens

You and your family have a voice throughout your care journey. We welcome feedback and review support as needs change.

📜

Clear from the beginning

We explain the care being proposed and the associated costs before care starts, so you know exactly what to expect.

Family Portal & Communication

You & your family stay connected

Know what's happening, even when you can't be there.

When someone you love receives care, it's natural to want to know how they're doing — especially when you're at work, living further away or simply can't be there every day.

With our secure care app, you or your chosen family members can access updates about your care, including care notes, visits and important information recorded by your care team.

  • ✓ See clear updates about the care provided and stay informed about how things are going.
  • ✓ Keep up to date even when you're not at home.
  • ✓ Remain involved in your loved one's care journey.
Care doesn't stop at the front door. Neither does communication.

Not sure what kind of care you need?

That's okay. You don't need to know how many hours you need, what type of support would be right or even whether now is the right time.

That's what we're here for.

Tell us what's happening and we'll help you understand your options. Not ready to arrange care? That's okay too. You can simply talk to us and take the information away to discuss with your family.

Frequently asked questions

Our home care assessment is a friendly, relaxed, and completely free conversation in the comfort of your own home with no obligation whatsoever.

During the visit, one of our experienced care managers will:

  • Listen carefully to your story, personal routines, and preferences
  • Discuss where and how support would be most helpful (from companionship to visiting or live-in care)
  • Review practical considerations such as home safety, mobility, and medication
  • Answer all questions from you and your family members openly
  • Outline a transparent, tailored care proposal and schedule with clear pricing

There is zero pressure to commit on the day. You take all the time you need to review and decide with your family.

No. The initial conversation and assessment are about understanding your needs and discussing your options. We'll explain what we recommend and you can decide what feels right for you and your family.

We'll discuss your preferred start date and what support you need. Subject to assessment, suitability and availability, we'll work with you to arrange care as soon as reasonably possible.

Absolutely. With your permission, family members or others important to you can be involved in discussions and care planning.

Yes. Care should respond to changing needs. We'll review your support and discuss any changes with you.

We aim to provide consistency wherever possible and carefully plan staffing around your needs and preferences.

Our care is priced clearly, based on the level of support you need.
