At Major Healthcare, we provide safe, compassionate and person-centred complex care for children, young people and adults with a wide range of assessed health, clinical and support needs.
We understand that living with complex needs can present unique challenges for individuals and their families. Our approach is centred on providing skilled, responsive and person-centred care that promotes safety, dignity, independence, choice and overall wellbeing.
Every package of complex care and support is tailored around the individual, considering their assessed needs, health requirements, routines, preferences, communication style and desired outcomes.
Supporting people with complex needs
Complex care requires more than meeting individual care needs. It requires understanding the person, their preferences, routines, communication needs and what matters to them.

Specialised care with a personal approach
Complex care is about more than meeting care needs. It is about supporting people to live with dignity, independence, choice and wellbeing. Before support begins, we take time to understand an individual's:
Health requirements
Routines and preferences
Communication style
Desired outcomes
Family circumstances
Existing support networks
This allows us to develop a personalised care and support plan, alongside appropriate risk assessments, that reflect the individual’s assessed needs, preferences, circumstances and the support required to keep them safe and achieve their desired outcomes.
Our care and support staff work alongside individuals, families, representatives, commissioners and relevant health and social care professionals to provide safe, consistent and responsive support.
