Common questions.
- Do you cover Craigavon and the surrounding villages?
- Yes. We cover Craigavon (BT64, BT65, BT66) along with Lurgan, Brownlow, Waringstown, Magheralin, Moira. Covered from Portadown, a short run up the M1 corridor, so double-up and short-notice calls are manageable. If your address sits just outside that list, ring the team, we will tell you honestly whether we can staff it rather than take an enquiry we cannot deliver on.
- How much does home care in Craigavon cost?
- Private visiting care starts at £25 per hour. The final cost depends on the number and length of visits, the time of day and whether you need one or two carers. We give you a written breakdown before anything starts, with no joining fee.
- What is the minimum visit length?
- 120 minutes. We do not run 15 minute call rounds, because they do not allow enough time to deliver care properly.
- Are your carers vetted?
- Every carer holds an enhanced Access NI check and is registered with NISCC where required. We are regulated by RQIA and inspected against the Domiciliary Care Agencies Regulations (Northern Ireland).
- Can care be funded by the Trust?
- Yes. Clients in Craigavon are supported through the Southern Health and Social Care Trust, Direct Payments, NHS funding or privately. If you are not sure which applies, we will talk you through the options and who to contact.
- How quickly can care start in Craigavon?
- It depends on the package and the carers available on the local rota. We will give you a realistic date at the assessment rather than a promise we cannot keep, and same-week starts are often possible.
