New Services for UK Home Care Nursing: Post-operative, Geriatric, Respite and Paediatric Care in a Home

Penny Streeter OBE, founder of Ambition 24hours, the national home care nursing agency, has extended the range of home care and nursing services to include people with a wide range of requirements.

(PRWEB) May 29, 2006 -- Ambition 24hours, the national home care nursing agency, has extended its range of domiciliary services to include people with a wide range of requirements for additional care and support in their own homes.

New home care services include not only post-operative, geriatric, respite and paediatric care by qualified staff, but now also support for those with eating disorders, MS, mental health and other difficulties and disabilities. Social services packages are also available, in association with Local Authorities and NHS Trusts.

Ambition 24hours was founded by health care entrepreneur Penny Streeter OBE. It offers specialised care plans and packages to meet individual needs, with a national database of over 13,500 qualified health care assistants and nurses, with relevant specialisations. The service is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, following an assessment, by calling a personal care coordinator at the booking centre on 0871 87 333 44 – www.a24homecare.co.uk.

The service includes provision for a carer or nurse to live in a client’s home - for people wanting to retain their independence and maintain a quality of life in the comfort and familiarity of their own environment.

“ We offer a personalised, caring service to meet every client’s express needs and preferences. Each personal care coordinator at our call centres can arrange every detail for the client, to eliminate any stress and worry for people requiring support for themselves or their loved ones,” says Penny Streeter.

“ Once your care package is in place, our team of locally based coordinators will be on hand to support your local needs and to address any issues or worries that you may have. Our objective is make care provision as hassle-free as possible”.

All nurses and carers are individually interviewed and references checked in compliance with CRB (Criminal Records Bureau). Ambition 24hours is the only company in the UK to provide the unique Health Passport, according to Penny Streeter: a tamper-proof ID card details the checks carried out on all care personnel. Training requirements are reviewed and upgraded annually.
