What is home based care?
Not everyone who is passionate about being a carer has the space to take on a child. That’s why CASPA invests in residences to support home based care. Home based carers live, rent-free, in properties owned by CASPA so they have the room to take on placements.
Home based care best suits carers who don’t have children or at-home commitments of their own.

Other types of foster care
No two young people are the same, and no two carers are either. We offer a variety of different care types for young people and carers to best match their needs and way of life.
THB care
Therapeutic home based care is for young people who have higher needs and require more support.
Respite care
A home away from home. Short-stay care that provides a valuable break for long term carers and vulnerable parents.
Long term care
Long term or guardianship placements for when a young person isn’t expected to return to their birth family.
