Requesting Help

How Pramacare can help
Each day Pramacare’s dedicated team of Co-ordinators and Care Attendants provide help directly to local individuals and on behalf of Bournemouth, Poole and East Dorset Social Services.

By simply calling the Pramacare Care Centre, on 01202 207321, a request for help can be made by an individual or, with their consent, by a concerned relative, friend, or family doctor.

Once the request has been made Pramacare will arrange for a qualified Care Assessor to visit and discuss the specific needs of the person, before a Care Attendant is assigned. A refundable charge is made for this assessment service. Find our more about our care fees.

We offer a range of services from personal care and domestic jobs to occasional night-sitting:

  • Getting in/out of bed
  • Washing
  • Bathing
  • Dressing
  • Toileting
  • Shopping
  • Food preparation
  • Household jobs
  • Night-sitting (occasional)
  • Respite sits
  • Toenail cutting (another service provided in the home)

Sometimes people want extra spiritual support and Pramacare is able to offer this through our resident chaplain and contacts with local churches.

You have been a lifesaver and have enabled me to keep my wife at home. I shall never forget the help and companionship from everyone at Pramacare.
