The Carers Bucks hospital team covers four hospital sites – Stoke Mandeville, Amersham, Wycombe and Wexham Park - supporting carers and their loved ones with information and advice relating to the hospital setting. 

We liaise closely with NHS teams and social care assessors throughout the hospital stay and subsequent discharge assessments

Once a carer is registered with Carers Bucks, they receive ongoing support from the wider Adult Carers service, covering the full range of issues from managing their caring role, finding support, to money and legal matters. 

We also offer online support groups and information workshops which are highly regarded by those who attend.
