There are two types of nervous systems, the central nervous system, and the peripheral nervous system. The central nervous system is composed of the brain and spinal cord, and the peripheral nervous system is composed of nerves that branch out of the spinal cord and extend to the other body parts.

There are two types of nervous systems, the central nervous system, and the peripheral nervous system. The central nervous system is composed of the brain and spinal cord, and the peripheral nervous system is composed of nerves that branch out of the spinal cord and extend to the other body parts.
Neurological conditions affect individuals in various ways. Some people can have very mild symptoms and some of them can have severely crippling symptoms. No two individuals, even having the same condition, can be treated in identical ways. There are many peculiarities to be considered when devising a treatment plan because every individual is unique and requires customized special care.
Several neurological conditions can occur due to developmental abnormalities or damage to the brain, spinal column, or the nerves, through illnesses or injury that can happen at any point in someone’s lifespan. They include spina bifida, stroke, traumatic brain injury, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy, bowel and bladder incontinence due to paralysis, Parkinson’s Disease, and Alzheimer’s Disease.
Any neurological condition can wreak havoc on the whole body and disrupt the daily lifestyle of an individual suffering from that condition. Such conditions can have mild effects as well as crippling effects on the affected individual. It is very distressful for the individual as well as the family members. Mental health issues such as anxiety and depression can also occur when the individual feels helpless and hopeless.

Common questions
Questions about neurological conditions care
What families ask us before arranging care.

Our care managers answer these every day. A no-obligation call takes about ten minutes.
0800 368 8558Lines open 8am–10pm, seven days a week See all questionsHow much does neurological conditions homecare cost?
Prices for neurological conditions homecare start at £1,200 a week. That is one fixed weekly fee covering everything in the agreed care plan, rather than an hourly rate that rises as needs grow. For couples, one carer can support two people under a single fee. See our pricing page for the full breakdown, or use the cost calculator for an estimate based on your own situation.
How quickly can care start?
In most cases we can have a carer in place within a week. For urgent situations — a hospital discharge, a fall, or a family carer suddenly unable to continue — we can often arrange cover within 24 to 48 hours.
Who will the carer be, and do we get a choice?
You choose. We send profiles of matched, available carers and you decide, including a video call beforehand if you would like one. It is the same carer each day rather than a rota, so they learn the routine and notice small changes early. Every carer is enhanced DBS checked, referenced and interviewed in person before we introduce them.
What does the carer actually do day to day?
Personal care, medication prompting and administration, meal preparation, light housework, laundry, shopping, appointments and companionship — all shaped around the agreed care plan. The aim is that daily life continues as normally as possible, in familiar surroundings.
Is this better than moving into a care home?
It depends on the person, and we will say so honestly if a care home is the better answer. What live-in care offers is one-to-one attention rather than shared staffing, no upheaval from a familiar home, pets and routines kept, and visitors whenever you like. For couples it is usually far better value than two residential placements.
Can we get help paying for it?
Often, yes. Depending on circumstances and where you live, support may come through a local authority assessment, NHS Continuing Healthcare, Attendance Allowance or a personal budget. Our funding guide explains what to apply for and in what order, and our care managers will talk it through without obligation.
Where we work

- Carers travel to you — they move into the home rather than driving from a local branch, so rural and coastal areas are covered too.
- The same weekly price everywhere — care is priced on the support needed, never on your postcode.
- Care can start in 24–48 hours in most areas, and often the same day after a hospital discharge.
