Sambhana Care is a very different home care service as we specialise in care for older people and respite care for adults with learning disabilities. Members of our team have ongoing personal experience of caring for their children who are adults with learning disabilities and have had first hand experience of the provision by social services. It was their passion to offer a better solution that was the driving force in starting the business.
We want to offer a truly tailored package of care that works for you or your loved one. There is no ‘one size fits all’ with us. We know entrusting a loved one to outside help is a tough decision and we want to make sure that you can breathe a sigh of relief knowing we have everything covered.
