Way Ahead Care

Personalised Home Care & Support

Way Ahead Care provides personalised home care and support for people of all ages and with varying disabilities, to help maintain their independence.

Our client’s happiness, independence and of course their sense of wellbeing are our main priorities.

We pride ourselves on the level of domiciliary care and support we provide and it is this dedication to furthering the standards of home help and care that has made us one of the most respected home care providers in the South West.

Way Ahead Care is a family run business providing care and support to adults of all ages and disabilities, to ensure continued wellbeing and independence. We strive to provide quality and flexible care and support services within the comfort of the individual’s own home. This can be delivered through either private bespoke services purchased directly or using Direct Payments or an Individual/Personal Budget through an agreement with the Local Authority.

We are able to offer a wide range of care and support services designed to meet the individual’s needs. This can either be a short term arrangement for a specific need, longer term support to meet ongoing requirements or more specialised 24hr care.
