The Organisation

Local Guardians (LG) is a national independent government funded home care provider. Their service empowers older adults with government funded home care to maximise their care hours with innovative technology and local customer service. Their aim is to consistently deliver very high services and a personalised approach; their vision is to prioritise their client’s needs, ensuring fees are kept low and service standards high.

LG are technology driven and independent of care delivery, so clients choose their own support workers from their trusted local provider network or their own workers, negotiating their own rates where appropriate.

LG operates with simplicity and local accountability. Clients deal directly with locally based care advisors, no call centres, no hand offs, no bureaucracy. LG systems minimise administration so more time and funding go directly to care.
