Help to live at home in Oldham

If you think you need some help to stay in your home in Oldham, the council can carry out an assessment to help them understand your needs.

They can then give you advice about services or facilities available in your local community to help.

Help in your home

A paid carer can regularly visit your home to help you with daily tasks, either on a long term basis or just while you recover after an illness or injury.

Free NHS help

If you have long term complex health needs, you might qualify for free home care from the NHS. You will need to ask a GP or social worker to arrange an assessment.

They can advise you about practical things that might make your life easier and help you to do things for yourself.

This could include grab rails to help you get out of bed, personal alarms which alert someone in case you have a fall, or walking aids to help you move around.

To see if you qualify for help to pay, the council will undertake a financial assessment.

Help can be provided on a short term basis, to help you regain your independence after a period of illness or injury.

This help is provided by the reablement service for up to 6 weeks.
