Qualified carers providing emergency care in Wokingham
Our dedicated team provides emergency care throughout Wokingham, and we believe in offering local people great care. We have a branch in Wokingham, so we're never far away and can be at your door within 24 hours if you really need us. Every carer is carefully trained and chosen not only for their experience, but for their kindness and empathy. We understand that inviting someone into your home at short notice can feel daunting, so we try to match a carer to your personality and interests.

What is emergency care for?
Emergency care is short-notice support arranged when circumstances change unexpectedly. It may be needed if your usual carer becomes unwell, if there has been an accident or sudden illness, or if you are discharged from hospital and require immediate help at home. Sometimes, it is simply about having someone there to steady the situation while longer-term plans are made. We can also offer expert nursing care which can support your more complex needs like medication adminsteration, PEG feeding, and accompanying you to your GP or hospital appointments.

When to consider emergency care
It is natural to want to manage on your own or to rely on family as much as possible. But if you are feeling overwhelmed, exhausted or worried about safety, it may be time to reach out. You can consider emergency care if daily tasks are becoming difficult to manage, if medication routines are being disrupted, or if there is an increased risk of falls. It can also provide vital reassurance if someone’s health has suddenly deteriorated or if you need professional support urgently.

How much does emergency care cost in Wokingham?
The cost of emergency care can vary based on whether you require live-in care or visiting care, and the level of support needed. Because every situation is unique, we provide a personalised assessment before confirming costs. You can view more on our costs and funding page, or contact one of our friendly Customer Service Advisers for a chat about your options.
If you need more information on our emergency care, please get in touch with our friendly customer care team today. They are available seven days a week via phone and online. If you prefer to speak to a member of the team in person, pop into our local branch for a chat.
