Types of Care Provider
CareSeeker (Lancashire) will help you find the right care provider
for you. However, people use care for many different reasons. How much people rely
on them varies a lot.
Some people only need care for a short time, to get them over a trauma or difficult
patch, or maybe need help just once or twice a week. Other people need full-time
care and may use a range of services.
People who use social care include those
with:
- a sensory impairment
- a physical disability
- a learning disability
- a terminal illness
- a mental illness
- problems connected to ageing
- alcohol dependency
- drug dependency
