Independent Living is a small, respectful and responsive home care service provider delivering quality, person-centred care in the local area. We are extremely proud to support those living in a 15-mile radius from Shardlow, Derbyshire.
Here at Independent Living, we believe every individual should have the option to stay at home in a familiar environment if they so wish, no matter their health condition or lifestyle needs. We will strive to maintain your everyday routines, hobbies and interests essential for good mental health and wellbeing. Sometimes it is hard to accept that a helping hand is needed, but after all, an afternoon browsing local shops for example, could be much more enjoyable when there’s somebody there to share the experience with.
Working with your support circle (including other professionals, such as your GP, District Nurse, Physiotherapist or Occupational Therapist), we will ensure we curate the right package of care for you.
We are fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) and with this regulation comes compliance (and therefore peace of mind). Founder and Manager, Jay McNicol, is Registered Manager with the CQC, which means he is authorised to arrange and manage home care. For more information on CQC and regulation click here. Rest assured, staff at Independent Living are highly knowledgeable – they have a combined 70+ years of hands-on industry experience delivering first-class home care within a globally recognised charity as well as the NHS across Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire.
When you surround yourself with positive people, anything is possible. We listen and understand. Together we empower each other. We are, and we promote Independent Living.
