Making Allied your service provider of choice couldn’t be easier
If you would like to know more, all you have to do is find your local branch by using the interactive map, and contact them by phone or email. Alternatively contact us free on 0800 032 4388.
First of all we talk to you, perhaps in conjunction with your family, to work out what level of support will suit you best and identify your personal requirements. Then we complete a full risk assessment of your home and record all of this information in your Care or Support Plan. Finally, we get to work, bringing you an impeccable service to improve your quality of life.
Direct Payments
More and more Local Authorities are offering their service users a Direct Payment or Personal or Individual Budget which can give you much more say in how your care funds are spent.
We are able to support individuals with Direct Payments, or hold ‘ring-fenced’ funds on your behalf (known as ‘Individual Support Funds’).
If you would like more advice on how to obtain direct payments, you can contact the direct payments department at your local Social Services, or if you have an existing social worker they will be able to give you more information. Alternatively contact your local Allied Healthcare branch.
As a starting point we have produced a simple guide which you can find here.
