Other Support Services
There are many services we are able to offer that are not necessarily a regulated activity but nevertheless are still important and essential in promoting independence. Whatever the cause a service users needs could change and independence deteriorates. Atlas Care Services often provides social care services in conjunction with other service such as personal care or rehabilitation services, these services are not a prerequisite to accessing a social care service from us.
The following services may be commissioned along with other services or separately, privately funded, funded through direct payments or fully funded by the commissioning authority:

This list is not exhaustive as Atlas Care Services will make every effort to meet all your needs and requirements, this social care is a bespoke tailored service. If you have specific needs we would be more than happy to discuss any proposal.
The social care service is flexible therefore can change and adopt as the service user's needs change.

Transfer to us from another provider
Sometimes a service user may find themselves in a position whereby they need to transfer to another provider, Atlas Care Services is able to facilitate a smooth transition so that the process has as little impact on the service user as possible. Every effort will be made to communicate with the outgoing provider to ensure all information is transferred in line with our Partnership Working & Communication Policy. We believe that a service user should always continue to receive a quality service throughout the transition time.
Atlas Care Services is often asked by a service user or their advocate, that if they transfer would their carers/support workers be able to follow them. This is always an option as this promotes continuity and brings across knowledge and experience to the continuation of the service after transfer. In most cases with careful planning a worker will be able to join when the service transfers, there may however be delays due to the recruitment and vetting process.
Where the transfer of undertakings (TUPE) apply to a worker they will be able to transfer immediately upon transfer. For more details on TUPE you could visit the ACAS website by clicking here. TUPE is a complex set of regulations therefore please don't hesitate to contact us with any questions.
