About This is Homecare

This is Homecare supports people in their own homes in Chesham and across this part of Buckinghamshire. We work with older people, people living with dementia, people living with mental ill health, adults with a physical disability, people with visual or hearing impairment and younger adults. Home care should fit around a life that already exists rather than rearrange it. We begin by asking how the day usually runs, what has become difficult, and what somebody can still do perfectly well and would rather keep doing. People are often very specific about that, and getting it right at the start is what makes support feel like help rather than interference. Our visits cover personal care, support with medication, meals, help around the house and getting out to appointments or into town. For people managing poor mental health, the work is often less about physical tasks and more about reliability and keeping daily life on track. Continuity is where we concentrate our effort. A familiar carer who knows the house, the routine and the person is worth more than any amount of paperwork, and that matters most where dementia or reduced sight and hearing are involved. We also keep timings steady, because a call that drifts can throw a whole day. We keep families informed where the person wants that, and we raise concerns early. Please get in touch if you would like to talk through what we could offer.
