Unplanned or urgent care at home

Aberdeenshire Responders for Care at Home (ARCH) is a 24-hour service for unplanned and urgent care needs with a maximum 4-hour response time. The service is available 365 days a year.

Responder teams are based across Aberdeenshire. They work with you, and your families, to prevent a hospital admission and, once medically fit, to promote as early a discharge as possible.

To access this service call 03456 08 12 06.

By working together ARCH strives to support individuals to live independently at home.

ARCH helps:

• existing Care at Home Service users
• people who have a community alarm

ARCH supports our Care at Home Service, Virtual Community Wards, Priority Discharge and End of Life care.
