Using this website
The information on this website is general guidance about our services. It is not medical advice. If you or someone else needs emergency medical help, call 112.
We work to keep the website accurate and up to date, but details such as availability can change. Please contact us to confirm anything important before you rely on it.
Our care services
Every care package is agreed in writing before care starts, following a free assessment. Your Care Service Agreement sets out the care you will receive, the fees, how to pay, and how to change or cancel your care, together with our full terms and conditions.
You can read our full care terms and conditions here: Algarve Care Services Terms & Conditions (PDF). If anything on this website differs from your signed agreement, your agreement applies.
Prices and quotes
Care is priced according to the type, level and hours of support needed. We give you a clear written quote after your assessment, before any care begins. Equipment hire prices and delivery charges, which depend on your area, are confirmed when you book.
Equipment hire and sales
Equipment is delivered, set up and collected at times agreed with you. You are responsible for looking after the equipment while you have it and for returning it in the same condition, apart from normal wear and tear. Please tell us straight away if anything is damaged or not working properly.
