Arranging a Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA)
What is a lasting power of attorney and how do I arrange one?
We provide care and support to adults of all ages from 18 years and above, enabling them to receive the help that they need in the comfort of their own homes. By supporting home-based care, we work alongside health and care commissioners to enable timely discharge from hospital, or to avoid hospital admissions where a client can be supported at home according to their needs and risks. This care may be short-term or long-term, to help them recover from an acute illness or manage enduring physical or mental health difficulties.
We provide care and support to people aged 18 years and above living with dementia, physical and mental health problems, who need support on their journey to recovery and independent living.
