GP's and Healthcare Professionals
Helping you give extra support to your patients and community
ila works alongside health, social-care and community professionals to help older and disabled people remain independent at home.
We provide non-clinical advice, companionship, practical home support and service coordination. By helping individuals and families navigate local support, prepare for changing circumstances and manage everyday practicalities, we complement the work of clinical and regulated care teams.
Healthcare Professionals can refer someone who may benefit from:
Practical Support at Home
Help with everyday tasks such as meals, shopping, laundry, light household work and errands to make life at home safer and easier to manage.
Companionship and Social Connection
Friendly, regular visits that provide conversation, reassurance and opportunities to stay connected with people, interests and the wider community.
Hospital Discharge and Recovery Support
Practical, non-clinical support to prepare the home, coordinate discharge arrangements and help someone settle safely back into everyday life.
Independent-Living Planning
A personalised review of the individual’s circumstances, priorities and support needs, followed by clear, practical recommendations for living well at home.
Help Coordinating Local Services
Help identifying suitable specialists, registered care providers and community services, while keeping the individual, family and relevant professionals informed.
Ongoing Support for Individuals and Families
A trusted point of contact who gets to know the individual, supports forward planning and helps families respond when circumstances change.
ila | Independent Living Advisers does not provide regulated personal care, nursing, clinical treatment or medical services. Where these are required, we can help families identify appropriate registered providers.
