About DCC Home Care
DCC Chesterfield Home Care supports older people and younger adults living in Chesterfield and the surrounding parts of Derbyshire. We provide care in people's own homes, which is where most people would far rather be and where, with sensible support, most people can stay. We are interested in the smallest amount of help that makes the day work. Care that takes over is easy to provide and does real damage over time, so we look for what someone can still manage, protect it, and put support around the rest. For some that is a hand at the start and end of the day. For others it is regular visits covering personal care, medication, meals and mobility. Timing matters enormously and is often treated as a detail. Being got up at a reasonable hour, having medication at the right time, not waiting for the toilet: these are the things people actually judge us on, and rightly so. We plan rotas realistically and we do not promise call times we cannot keep. We work alongside GPs, district nurses and family carers, and we speak up when someone's needs have outgrown their package rather than carrying on regardless. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is Good. If you are weighing up home care in Chesterfield, we are glad to come out and talk it through, whether or not you decide to use us.
