Shared Lives Home from Hospital

Who needs care

Being a Shared Lives Carer is really flexible. You can support up to three people, working hours that suit you, and that fit around your family life.

Our Shared Lives Carers support people leaving hospital who aren't ready to return to their own home. This could be because their home is not suitable, they require day to day support to continue their recovery, or because there is no one at home to assist them. There are lots of reasons why some people are unable to return home straight away, including:

  • people who are waiting for the start of domiciliary care services
  • need more time to recover following medical conditions such as a stroke or needing support to learn how to manage a long term medical condition
  • people who have had a period of mental ill health which required a hospital admission
  • older people requiring more time to recover and regain their strength and
  • confidence following a hospital stay
  • waiting for their house to be made suitable
