I hope you can offer advice on how we can best manage this type of set up.
Daughter needs 247 care to help her personal care , healthy meals - food shopping.
Not allowing her to get triggered or overwhelmed with life. keeping busy & happy. Going out etc.
She will live in her own property but with a small number of carers to work on a shift basis.
I want to support her and work along side the care team, we have had many failures it's been so devastating.
Is anyone else doing this by sharing the hours ? are you able to do part local authority and other direct payments ?
Do you know anything about flexible contract's - our local authority don't offer any solutions so I don't know where to start on trying to work out a workable schedule.
Any advice is welcome I always feel I don't have all the information to manage the situation.
Thanks

I posted a comment earlier then deleted it.
I was suddenly uncertain if I had answered your requests for similar experience in the vein of your stated desires.
Can I ask if you are making a future tense proposition to your daughter's care?
If you are then I would have to assume that the carers would be intended carers even if they are present carers in another care structure and would transition to your 'new' structure.
Also, that you have a direct payment in place!
If so then I may be able to offer some experience which is likely to be precisely in the same thresholds you appear to have expressed.
This below link to my comment to connect the thread of YOUR meaning.
I could assume that you are making a future tense meaning in YOUR (this thread) comment, but forums are debilitating when it comes to connecting threads of meaning together.
