If someone you love needs more support at home, you do not have to navigate this alone. Lamora Healthcare is a nurse-led, CQC-registered care provider based in Aylesbury. We help families arrange safe, compassionate, personalised care — from a few visits a week to round-the-clock live-in support.
Reaching the point where a family member needs professional care support is often a difficult moment — emotionally, practically, and financially. Many families tell us they spent weeks or months worrying before picking up the phone, unsure where to start or what to ask.
At Lamora Healthcare, we understand that. Our team — led by qualified nurses — will take the time to understand your situation, explain your options clearly, and never pressurise you into anything. We are here to help you make the right decision for your family, not the quickest one for us.
We provide care across Aylesbury, Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire, and Luton — in your loved one’s own home, so they can stay where they feel safe and comfortable.

These are the questions and worries we hear most often. You are not alone in having them.
Neither do most families — and in many cases, it is not necessary. With the right care package at home, many individuals can remain safely in their own environment, surrounded by the things and people they love. Live-in care in particular is a genuine, fully supported alternative to residential care.
Care funding is complex and varies by individual circumstances. Options include local authority funding (means-tested), NHS Continuing Healthcare (for those with significant health needs, not means-tested), personal health budgets, and private self-funding. We can help you understand which routes may apply to your situation and who to speak to.
All Lamora Healthcare carers are DBS-checked, reference-verified, and trained before deployment. We are registered with the Care Quality Commission and our clinical governance is overseen by qualified nurses. You have every right to ask about our recruitment process — and we welcome those questions.
This is one of the most common situations we encounter. Many individuals initially resist the idea of a carer, particularly if they value their independence. A good care provider works at the person’s pace, builds trust gradually, and involves the individual in every decision. Care should never feel imposed.
We can mobilise urgent care packages within 24–72 hours for situations where care is needed quickly — following a hospital discharge, a fall, a sudden deterioration, or a carer breakdown. Call us directly on 0333 004 0177 and we will discuss what is possible.
Live-in care and regular visiting care both provide reliable, consistent daily support when you cannot be present. We keep families informed with regular updates, and you can speak to our team at any time. For complex or high-dependency needs, our nursing directors are directly involved in oversight.
Every situation is different. We will help you find the right level of support — starting with a no-obligation conversation.
We keep the process as simple and stress-free as possible. Here is what to expect when you contact us.
Call us or complete a care enquiry online. We will listen to your situation without judgement and explain what options may be available. No commitment required.
A qualified member of our team visits to carry out a proper care needs assessment — understanding the individual’s health, daily routine, preferences, and what support they actually need.
We design a bespoke care plan and match a carer whose skills and personality suit your loved one. You meet the carer before care starts.
Care starts at the agreed time. We stay in regular contact with the family, review the plan as needs change, and are always available if you have concerns.
Many care providers are run by business managers with clinical advisers. At Lamora Healthcare, our directors are both qualified nurses — a Registered General Nurse and a Registered Mental Health Nurse — with over 30 years of combined NHS clinical experience.
This means the people ultimately responsible for your loved one’s care are nurses who understand medication, risk, health deterioration, and when to escalate — not just care coordinators following a script.
Regulated for Personal Care under the Health and Social Care Act 2008. You can verify our registration on the CQC website.
Our Registered Manager Norah Chawarika RGN and Director Shingirai Chawarika RMN are directly contactable by families.
Every service user has a written, individualised care plan. You will receive a copy and it will be reviewed whenever needs change.
Our team is available during office hours and has an on-call system for urgent concerns outside those hours.
Care funding is one of the most confusing aspects of arranging support for a family member. There is no single answer — it depends on the individual’s financial situation, health needs, and local authority area. Here is a plain-language overview of the main routes.
Fully funded by the NHS for individuals with a primary health need — not means-tested. Assessed by your local Integrated Care Board. If your loved one has significant, complex, or unpredictable health needs, it is worth asking their GP or hospital team about a CHC assessment. More information.
Means-tested funding arranged by your local council following a Care Act needs assessment and financial assessment. Contact your local authority social care team to request an assessment.
Where funding has been agreed, personal health budgets and direct payments give you greater control over how care is delivered and by whom. We accept both.
If you are funding care privately, we will discuss costs openly and honestly during our initial conversation. There are no hidden fees.
We can help you understand the funding options available and who to contact. Call us for a no-obligation conversation.
There is no obligation and no pressure. Call us on 0333 004 0177 or complete a care enquiry online and we will get back to you within one working day.
