About Nurses Friend

We are Nurses Friend in Halifax, supporting people across Calderdale in their own homes. Our work covers a wide range of needs, and we plan each person's support around their own routines rather than around a standard schedule. We support older people with the everyday tasks that have become harder, and people living with dementia, where a familiar carer and an unhurried pace matter more than anything written down. We work with adults who have a learning disability and with autistic adults, people managing mental health conditions, people living with a physical disability and people with sight or hearing loss. We also support younger adults, whose priorities are usually about getting on with ordinary life. Continuity is what makes home care work. A carer who knows somebody well notices the untouched meal or the flat mood that turns out to be the first sign of something, and that is how problems get caught early rather than late. We have not yet received an overall rating from the Care Quality Commission, and we would rather state that plainly. Until we do, judge us on whether visits happen as agreed and whether we give you straight answers.
