Are you an unpaid Carer?

Identifikácia ako neplatený opatrovateľ:

Do you care for a loved one, family member, friend or neighbour.

Our team at Universal Services for Carers in Derby are here to support anyone providing care to a person living in Derby City who are informal and unpaid.

„Neplatené“ znamená, že sa nestaráte ako profesionál, napríklad ako pracovník komunitnej starostlivosti, pracovník domácej starostlivosti alebo zdravotná sestra. Ak dostávate príspevok na opatrovanie, ste stále klasifikovaný ako neplatený opatrovateľ, pretože tento príspevok vás podporuje iba pri poskytovaní starostlivosti, ktorú vaši blízki požadujú.

Neplatení opatrovatelia poskytujú zásadnú podporu svojej rodine a priateľom, čo môže spôsobiť zaťaženie ich vlastných životov. Preto je pre platených opatrovateľov ešte dôležitejšie uznanie za prácu, ktorú vykonávajú.

Ak máte pocit, že vám tento popis vyhovuje, potom sme tu, aby sme vás podporili radami, informáciami, aktivitami v oblasti pohody, príležitosťami na školenie a odbornou podporou.

Whilst we welcome registrations from Parent Carers and are able to offer access to our resources and some of our events, our Service is commissioned to support adult carers whose Cared For are over 18.
