From £20
We cover the North & East Dorset and South Somerset areas to provide a visiting/hourly care service.
This includes everything that we would do if we were living-in but provided during a visit.
We do a minimum of 1 hour per visit.
Again, UK Bank Holidays are charged at double agreed rate
Will depend on increased levels of supervision, assistance & personal hygiene care required
This will be discussed & agreed prior to the assignment and reviewed weekly.
When living in, we do not usually make any extra charge for the occasional night call. However, if it becomes apparent that this is a regular occurrence, additional fees will be discussed and implemented.
It may be necessary to arrange for an additional carer to cover nights.
We should be able to take off two consecutive hours every day. We will, of course, fit these in around the routines of the client. If it is not possible for the client to be left, arrangements will need to made to facilitate time off.
We do understand that it is occasionally necessary that time off is not possible. Time off in lieu or additional charges will be discussed and agreed.
In general, we expect a 'normal' working day to start around 0700/0800 and end not more than 14 hours later.
Each day of travel is to be considered a full working day.
Travel will be charged at cost for standard train or coach fare and taxi transfers or at the current basic Government advised rate of 45p/mile if using our own vehicles.
We do not usually start to travel to an assignment earlier than 0830 and aim to depart an assignment at a time designed to get us home by 1800.
We do not clean. Of course, we will clear up any mess caused by us and/or the client on a day to day basis. For example, vacuuming crumbs and cleaning the bathroom after use.
Please, do not ask us to babysit. We are a 'Granny Nanny', not a child minder!
Where the client does not have a car & we have travelled to the assignment in our own vehicle We are happy to use it to do the household shopping and go for the occasional outing. We are fully insured .
Travel will be charged at the current basic Government advised rate of 45p/mile if using our own vehicle.
We are more than happy to assist with household admin - bills etc - but are not comfortable being involved in discussions regarding finances.
Clients' personal finances are none of our business.
We hope you understand that this is for OUR protection and does not arise out of any desire to be unhelpful.
Invoices will be prepared in Pounds Sterling and submitted electronically to the client's representative for payment by Bank Transfer into a UK Bank Account.
It is usual for live-in carers to be paid before they leave an assignment.
Hourly assignments should be paid weekly (or as arranged) in arrears.
We do not accept cheques.
INVOICES WILL BE PREPARED AND SUPPLIED ELECTRONICALLY FOR IMMEDIATE PAYMENT BY BANK TRANSFER
