About this app

Age Abode supports seniors to age in their abode and community. We provide expert in-home care, helping seniors age in their abode and community - happily and safely.
How it works:
We offer a bespoke approach to care to ensure you get the right care, at the right time. Choose your carer - from a pool of stringently vetted and interviewed carers. Then schedule and monitor care easily from anywhere on our care platform and app. Speak to one of our care specialists who will help you choose the right carer for yours and your families needs. Then once the relationship has been created, we ask you to download our app.
The Age Abode app enables you to:
- Easily schedule and monitor care
- Create checklists to specify what needs to be done
- See when caregiver arrives, what they help with and when they leave.
- Receive daily progress reports and review timesheets
- Keep in contact with your care team through in-app chat
Why Age Abode:
At Age Abode we want the UK senior community to have the opportunity to age with dignity in their own abode, whilst maintaining relationship with their families and their community. We do this by providing:
Professional Caregivers - we carefully vet and interview every caregiver to ensure they are of the highest quality
Personal to you - choose your own caregiver, book the same caregiver each time and easily change schedule
Simple to manage - Keep in touch with your caregiver and Age Abode in real-time
Age Abode was launched in 2017 by Jonny Bottomley and Oliver Ross, after experiencing such poor level of service when arranging care for their own family members. The company is located in Clapham, London.
