About St Piran Community Care C.I.C.
St Piran Community Care is a home care agency in Perranporth, supporting people in their own homes across this part of Cornwall. We work with older people and younger adults, including people living with dementia and people who have a physical disability. We are a community interest company, which in practice means any surplus goes back into the care rather than out of it. We mention it not as a boast but because it explains some of our choices, including our willingness to take on visits in places that are awkward to reach. Cornwall is scattered and the roads are slow, and in winter the villages get quiet. A carer's visit can be the only knock on the door in a day, so we plan rounds around the travelling time the lanes genuinely need and we treat the conversation as part of the visit rather than an interruption to it. The support itself is practical. Help to get up, washed and dressed with dignity intact. Medication managed and recorded properly. Meals cooked. Help to move safely about the home. Shopping and laundry. We send the same carers to the same households as far as we can, because for somebody living with dementia that familiarity keeps a visit calm, and for everybody it is how a carer notices a change early. The Care Quality Commission has not yet given us an overall rating. Ring us and ask whatever you need to know.

Dementia Care at St Piran Community Care C.I.C.
With no inspection on record, what you can establish by asking is all there is to go on here. Dementia care is on the agency's registration, and it says it sends the same carers to the same households as far as it can. That familiarity is what keeps a visit calm, by its account. Scattered rounds in rural Cornwall make the promise worth testing rather than assuming. Ask how many different carers a person would meet in a month. Ask how distress is handled and how visits are reviewed as dementia advances.

Cornwall is the council to approach about an assessment and any funded hours. South West rates for home care run from about £28 to £33 an hour, a regional guide rather than this agency's price. The agency is a community interest company, which it says means any surplus goes back into the care rather than out of it. It explains that this is partly why it will take on visits in places that are awkward to reach.

Scattered villages and slow roads are how this agency describes its patch in Cornwall.
