Company that starts with listening
Warm conversation, practical help and steady support—in your own home and at your own pace.
Hello, I’m Roz
Skilled care, offered with warmth.
I’m a UK-trained nurse now living in the Algarve. Although my nursing qualification is not registered in Portugal, it gives me a strong foundation for providing thoughtful, capable home support and hands-on care.
There is no one-size-fits-all version of care. We can talk about what would make daily life safer, easier or more comfortable, then agree support that feels right for you and your family.
I place particular importance on companionship and specialise in supporting people living with mental-health challenges. I offer a calm, non-judgemental presence alongside practical help, routine and meaningful human connection.
Care is provided in English. I am currently learning Portuguese.
How I can help
Support that meets you where you are.
Mental health support
Patient, non-judgemental companionship and practical support for people living with mental-health challenges.
Ongoing home support
Dependable, person-centred help for people living with long-term care needs.
After-hospital care
Practical support, meals and gentle encouragement while you recover and regain confidence at home.
Personal care
Respectful, hands-on help with washing, dressing, mobility and everyday routines.
Home help
Shopping, nourishing meals, errands, appointments and the practical jobs that make life easier.
Wound care support
Wound dressing and aftercare support where appropriate, within my competence and an agreed care plan.
Mental-health support is practical and non-clinical. It does not replace medical, psychiatric or emergency services.

More than getting things done
Good care can also mean simply being there.
A cup of tea, a walk, cooking together, help getting out of the house, or time with someone who genuinely listens. Companionship can support confidence, routine and wellbeing while helping people remain connected to the lives they value.
Ready when you are
