What if i dont like my care package or want to make changes?
Our Experience tell us that people `s care needs very often change .We therefore understand that care may need reviewing from time to time.This is why we carry out reviews on regular basis and why we are pleased to hear from members of the immediate family about effective methods for delievering the care service for their relative.
What tasks will my care assistant carry out?
We agree a care plan which details exactly what you have instructed us to do.This then becomes the work list for each day .As part of our ongoing and unique relationship with pharmacies,we are also able to assist or administer your medication.
How can I be sure that my care assistant wil stay the full period of the care visit and carry out all the tasks.
We take a considered and comprehensive approach to ensuring that your care service is exactly what is required.After every visit,the care assistant willl write details of activities undertaken during the visit in the care record ( which is retained by the customer ).In addition, the customer is asked to record their satisfaction by signing the care assistant`s timesheet which is returned to the Emezzions office each week for checking.
How do i pay for my care?
We will send you a bill once a fortnight.If you wish to pay by standing order ( to save you having to remember to write out a checque) just let us know.Please get in touch with the local office as the payment methods may vary.
Is there anything that my care assistant is not able to do?
Once we have established exactly what you want on each visit,we will work to that list.We are not able to give injections or change sterlie dressings.Also, we cannot carry out tasks which are likey to cause risk to either the person we provide care to or to the emezzions care assistant.Tasks will be agreed with you in advance.Any changes to the plan can be discussed with your local emezzions team.
Will i be having the same care assistant?

What about my personal assistant?
This depends on how many care visits you have each week.We very rarely have just one care assistant assigned to a particular customer.This allows for periods of time where your care assistant may be away on holiday, however we do try to keep the number of your care assistants to an absolute minimum.
What safeguards do I have?
Emezzions is registered with the local registertion body in each country in which we operate.These bodies set the minimum standards by which we operate, however in every case we seek to exceed these
