About Hospital

We provide care at home for people in Newton Abbot and the surrounding part of Devon. Our carers visit people where they live, helping with the parts of the day that have become difficult while leaving the rest well alone. Everything begins with a proper conversation in your own home rather than with a form. We want to understand what your day usually looks like, which parts have become harder, and what you would rather carry on managing without anybody stepping in. The plan comes from your answers, and we go back to it as things change in either direction. If somebody needs less from us than they did, we would rather say so than keep visits running out of habit. A visit might involve help getting washed and dressed, support with medication, preparing a meal, shopping and housework, getting out to an appointment, or simply company and conversation for somebody who sees very few people in a week. We keep care teams small so that the same faces turn up, because being greeted by somebody you know changes the character of the whole visit. We are registered with the Care Quality Commission and we are glad to be asked about our training, our staffing and how we handle concerns. You should know who to ring and get a straight answer when you do. If you are looking into care at home in this part of Devon for yourself or a relative, please get in touch and we will talk it through honestly.
