Complex care at home in Newton Abbot.

Complex care in Newton Abbot and Teignbridge, led from the inside.
Eviqa is based in Newton Abbot, so Teignbridge is home ground. Families here sit between two acute hospitals, Torbay and the RD&E, and are often sent home from either with a package that nobody local can staff. Eviqa Complex Care changes that: a paramedic-led team based in the town, trained and signed off for the person, available in blocks of hours or around the clock across Teignbridge.
Our office is in Newton Abbot, which means short travel for our carers, fast response when something changes, and a clinical lead who can be at the door rather than on the end of a phone. We work with Newton Abbot Community Hospital, the discharge teams at Torbay and the RD&E, Devon County Council's adult social care and NHS Devon on continuing healthcare.

Our careWorking with the teams you already know in Newton Abbot and Teignbridge
Complex care sits alongside the NHS and the local authority. It does not replace them, and it works best when everyone is talking.
Newton Abbot Community Hospital, Torbay Hospital and the Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital
We take referrals from discharge coordinators and ward teams, and we can assess on the ward so the package is ready when the person is.
Devon County Council
Local authority funded packages and direct payments, with the care plan written the way the social work team needs to see it.
NHS Devon, for continuing healthcare
We work with the NHS Devon continuing healthcare team and with case managers on CHC and personal health budget packages.

District nurses, specialist nurses and therapists stay involved. Our carers carry out the delegated tasks they have been signed off for, and escalate to them when needed.

Case managers, deputies and solicitors
Personal injury and Court of Protection packages, with monthly reviews and records that stand up to scrutiny.
Led by a paramedic, not a rota.
Every Eviqa package in Newton Abbot and Teignbridge has a named paramedic clinical lead who knows the person, writes the plan and reviews it. Our carers are trained by clinicians to spot the change before it becomes the emergency, and a clinician answers day and night.
Every Eviqa service runs on Eviqa Assure, so every task, incident and review is recorded and open to you. How we are different
How a package is built
- Carers trained by clinicians. Our own programme covers recognising deterioration, observations, falls and escalation, on top of the Care Certificate.
- Signed off for each person. No carer carries out a clinical task until they have been trained, observed and signed off for that individual.
- The same small team. Four to six regular carers who know the person, working the same shifts each week, with a clinician on call.

Common questions about complex care in Newton Abbot and Teignbridge
Do you cover all of Newton Abbot and Teignbridge?
Yes. We cover Newton Abbot, Kingsteignton, Teignmouth, Dawlish, Bovey Tracey, Chudleigh, Ashburton and the villages of Teignbridge. If you are just outside, ask us: packages are planned around the person and the geography, and longer shifts and live-in care make distance much less of a problem.
Who pays for complex care in Newton Abbot and Teignbridge?
It depends on the person's needs. NHS continuing healthcare through NHS Devon is not means-tested and funds care in full for people whose needs are mainly health needs. Devon County Council funds or part-funds care after a needs and financial assessment. Personal injury settlements, Court of Protection deputies and private funding are all common. Paying for care
Can care start straight from hospital?
Yes, where we have enough notice to train and sign off the team for the person. The earlier the discharge team involves us, the smoother it is. For case managers and referrers
