About Pinewood Home Care

We provide care at home in Budleigh Salterton and the surrounding part of east Devon, supporting older people and younger adults, including people living with dementia and people with physical disabilities. What we do depends on what somebody needs. It may be a visit in the morning to help with washing, dressing and medication, a hand with meals, shopping and housework, support to move about the house safely, or several calls a day where needs are greater. Sometimes it is company and a reliable point of contact for a person who lives alone and sees very few people in the course of a week. We work in a small town and the villages around it, which makes reliability a matter of planning rather than good intentions. We would rather tell you honestly which places and times we can cover than promise visits we cannot keep. Where we do commit, we try to send the same carers consistently, because that familiarity is what allows somebody to notice when a person is unwell, in pain or low in spirits. For people living with dementia it matters a great deal more than that. Our carers are trained for the needs they are asked to meet and can reach senior colleagues for advice. Our most recent inspection by the Care Quality Commission rated us good overall. If you are thinking about care at home for yourself or a relative, please get in touch and we will talk it through without any pressure.
