What is Complex Care?
Complex care is person-centred, specialised support to improve the health and well-being of individuals with chronic or long-term medical conditions and special needs. This type of care requires additional support to manage their symptoms and day-to-day activities, maintaining a high standard of living.
Any illness requiring clinical support, such as Parkinson’s, traumatic brain injuries, or brain disorders, can be included in the category of complex care. It usually entails medical intervention and involvement with a team of nurses and clinicians who are experts in that person’s specific condition. The care that nurses entail can also be provided based on the client’s underlying medical conditions.
The carer must be specialised in various complex care practices that can be studied and taught in specialist training programs. Carers should be aware that in addition to complex care, clients should always be allowed to lead fulfilling lives and gain independence.

Types of Complex Care
Whether you need long-term or short-term support, as you recover from a condition or surgery, your care needs can change and evolve, and so do the care and assistance we provide.
Here are some of the types of complex care we offer and enable for our clients:
- Neurological conditions
Various conditions, diseases, and disorders that affect the brain, spinal cord, nerves, and muscles are categorised as neurological disorders. Parkinson’s, multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, and migraines are well-known diseases.
Different various disorders are the root causes of neurological diseases. It could be congenital, such as cerebral palsy, genetic like Huntington’s disease, degenerative (motor neuron disease), infectious (meningitis) and neoplastic, for example, brain tumours.
- Mental Health Issues
According to clinical studies currently, in England, the most common mental health conditions are Mixed anxiety and depression, Generalised Anxiety Disorder (GAD), Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), Depression, Phobias, Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and Panic disorder.
- Learning Difficulties
Learning difficulties currently affect about 4 million kids and young people, and many cope with multiple personal challenges. Neurological challenges such as learning difficulties impact how the brain receives, processes, stores, and interprets information. A learning disability is typically recognised and diagnosed while a person is enrolled in school because it usually affects the development of reading, writing, spelling and math capabilities.
- Learning Disabilities
Learning disabilities affect a person’s ability to understand, speak, do mathematical operations, coordinate movements, or maintain concentration. Although they can develop in a group of very young infants, learning problems are typically not identified until the child is in school.
- Acquired Brain injury
Any brain injury that develops after birth is called an acquired brain injury (ABI). It can be damage from a head injury, illness, lack of oxygen, alcohol or drugs, infection, physical injury, or a stroke.
- Spinal Cord Injury
The spinal cord injury, which causes damage to the nerves or the spinal cord, often causes long-term changes to the strength, sensation, and other body functions below the injury site. Loss of movement, difficulty breathing, coughing up secretions from the lungs, loss of or altered feeling, the ability to feel cold and heat, and the sense to touch, among other symptoms, are all potential consequences of this type of injury.
How Does Complex Care Work?
Our care and support are developed according to the person’s complex care needs. Individual care, support with everyday activities, and medication management are just a few of the necessary specialised care tailored and delivered toward helping people at home.
Support plans also provide the carer with specific information and guidelines, ensuring that they deliver care properly as agreed upon with the person at their initial assessment. The care manager for the person may modify the support plan at any point, and it is under review. Our specialist carers will help in the support plans and work closely with the care manager conducting the first assessment to ensure all areas address the client’s clinical care needs.
Working closely with the people we support and their family is vital for creating the most fitting complex care plan. As a person-centred company, it is essential for us to comprehend your needs to reflect the requirements necessary for your loved one to lead a fulfiled life.
