About Appleberry Care
We provide care at home in Slough and the surrounding area. The people we support include older people and younger adults, people living with dementia, adults with learning disabilities, autistic people, people with mental health conditions, people with physical disabilities, people with visual or hearing impairments and people living with eating disorders. Needs that varied cannot be met from a standard package, so we ask before we plan. For an older person, help often centres on personal care, medication, meals and keeping the house manageable. For a younger adult it is more likely to be about independence: running a home, getting to work or college, handling money and keeping appointments. Where the difficulty is around eating, what helps most is usually staff who are steady, do not make a scene of it and keep turning up. Continuity is the part of this work that matters most. We try to send the same carers to the same households, because trust is slow to build and quickly undone, and a carer who knows somebody notices early when things are slipping. Our staff are trained for the needs they are asked to meet and have senior colleagues they can reach when a situation is unclear. Our most recent inspection by the Care Quality Commission rated us good overall. If you are looking into care at home, please get in touch for an honest conversation about what we can take on.
