There are many different aspects of care; anyone, at any stage in life, can find themselves in need of care – from children to vulnerable adults and those requiring assistance as they age. Equally, care providers are everywhere, from the family to social services and the professional care industry. For some of us, particularly family, the need to provide care can be sprung on us unexpectedly and it can be hard to know where to turn for help, or sometimes even to realise that help is there, and can change the lives of those needing care and those giving it.
As a result, there are many different ways of understanding what ‘care’ and being a ‘carer’ involves; have a look at our definitions for some general guidelines.
As a care company, Allan-Ross provides professional care-workers and is part of the care industry. For this reason this website focuses particularly on those who may be thinking about service provision or seeking employment as a carer.
