We all want our elderly relatives to get the best possible care....ideally in the comfort of their own home. But how do we go about organising this?

In 2013, Tom Quinlan was working as a primary school teacher. His mother Ann, had been struggling with COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) for many years. In September 2013 Ann’s condition deteriorated to such an extent that she ended up in intensive care in hospital. After several weeks of excellent care and attention, she was well enough to be discharged. The discharge coordinator gave Tom’s family a choice: a nursing home or a private visiting care service.

Choosing the right care for relatives is an important decision. Everyone naturally wants the best quality care at an affordable price, but more importantly they want their loved one to be safe and happy…. and for most, no matter what age they are, there’s simply no place like home.
