The Start Team

The Start Team is a small team of Social Care Assistants who will re-able people who come home from hospital or from the community following an illness or change of circumstances.

The aim of the team is that the Social Care Assistants will support and encourage the person to become more able and independent over time. Care will be adjusted to meet the persons changing needs. The team also identify equipment which should assist the person to remain as independent as possible. The service is available for up to 12 weeks. Our START Team Social Care Assistants work between the hours 06:45-13:45 (Early Shift) and 15:30-22:30 (Late Shift)

A Care at Home Enabler from the Moray Council will visit to discuss the teams input and plan any continuing care needs.
