Adult Support Services
Independence looks different for everyone. For some adults, managing everyday life means adapting routines, asking for help, or finding new ways to stay confident at home. At Classic Carers, our adult support services are built around those moments — offering practical, respectful care for individuals who need a little help, a lot of help, or something in between.
Whether you are managing a long-term condition, recovering from an illness, or simply finding that daily life has become harder to navigate, we are here with consistent, dependable support. Always tailored. Always delivered with dignity.
Learn MoreWhat Are Adult Support Services?
Adult support services refer to personalised, at-home care for individuals aged 18 and over who need assistance with day-to-day living. Unlike elderly care — which focuses specifically on ageing-related needs — adult support covers a much wider range of circumstances, including:
- Physical disabilities
- Mental health conditions
- Neurological disorders
- Injury or post-surgical recovery
- Learning disabilities
- Chronic fatigue or fluctuating mobility
- Temporary support needs during life transitions
Support may be light and occasional — such as meal help or medication reminders — or it may be more involved, like mobility transfers or full personal care. The goal remains the same: to help each person live well, with control, confidence, and comfort in their own home.

How Classic Carers Builds the Right Support
Support should never feel intrusive or rigid. That is why our approach is entirely person-led. From the first visit, we focus on understanding the individual’s lifestyle, preferences, and what they define as independence.
Key Elements of Our Approach:
- Tailored care plans that are reviewed and refined regularly
- Carers matched based on personality as well as skillset
- Flexible schedules that adapt to changing health or circumstances
- Transparent communication with clients and their chosen advocates
Whether the support is needed for a few weeks or forms part of a long-term living arrangement, we deliver it with consistency and care.
Flexible Service Options
- Short daily visits for help with medication, meals, or check-ins
- Block care for help in the morning and evening
- Live-in support for complex or around-the-clock care
- Respite cover for family carers who need rest or time away
- Ad-hoc support during crisis, illness, or transitional periods
We can increase or reduce visits at short notice as needs change.

Frequently Asked Questions: Adult Support Services
Find answers to common questions about our adult support services at home.
What does adult support include?
Adult support includes help with personal care, meals, mobility, medication, social engagement, and light household tasks. It is designed to empower adults to live independently and comfortably at home.
Is this service only for people with disabilities?
No. Our services are for any adult (18+) who needs help with daily life — including those recovering from illness, managing chronic conditions, or needing temporary support after a setback.
Do you offer support for mental health needs?
Yes. Our carers are trained to work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, PTSD, and other mental health concerns. We provide structure, reassurance, and gentle emotional support as part of daily care.
Can I get help just for a few weeks?
Absolutely. We offer short-term support during recovery, after hospital discharge, or during a family carer’s absence. Many clients begin with temporary care and choose to continue longer term.
Can I choose the times and days that suit me?
Yes. We build your schedule around your needs and lifestyle. Visits can be once a day, several times a week, or full-time — and we adapt if circumstances change.
