Complex Care
Your Health, Your Way
Carennect provide specialist, person-centred healthcare and support for individuals with chronic, long-term, or multiple health conditions, requiring more intensive medical intervention than standard domiciliary care. This tailored care, often delivered at home, involves a multidisciplinary team of professionals who create personalised plans to help people manage symptoms, perform daily tasks, and maintain independence and a good quality of life.
Conditions requiring complex care include neurological disorders, acquired brain injuries, spinal injuries, respiratory issues, and the need for specialised equipment like feeding tubes or ventilation support.
WHAT COMPLEX CARE INVOLVES
Specialist Skills
Complex care requires the expertise of trained nurses and other healthcare professionals to manage diverse and intensive needs.
Person-Centred Approach
Care plans are designed around an individual's unique needs, preferences, and goals, rather than a standardised condition.
Multidisciplinary Teams
Care is coordinated by a team that may include doctors, nurses, therapists, and other specialists who work collaboratively.
Focus on Independence
The aim is to support individuals in their own homes, empowering them to live as independently and safely as possible.
Medical Interventions
Services can include managing specific medical equipment, such as ventilators, catheters, or PEG feeding tubes, along with other clinical support.
CONDITIONS THAT MAY REQUIRE COMPLEX CARE
- Neurological disorders (e.g., Parkinson's disease, Epilepsy, Multiple Sclerosis, Motor Neurone Disease and Huntington’s Disease).
- Acquired brain injuries (ABI)
- Spinal cord injuries
- Chronic respiratory issues, including ventilator dependency
- Conditions requiring clinical interventions like tracheostomy care, catheter or stoma care, and peg (gastrostomy) feeding
- Severe mobility issues
- Congenital disabilities or rare genetic disorders
Key Differentiator from Standard Domiciliary Care
Complex care differs from general domiciliary (home) care because it often involves specialised medical interventions and requires involvement from clinical professionals, such as doctors, clinical leads and nurses, who have expertise in the individual's specific condition.
