About Us

We at Eleanor Nursing and Social Care welcome you to our Dorchester based home care agency, proudly supporting individuals across Dorset and the wider South West to live well within the comfort and familiarity of their own homes.

Operating from our Dorchester office in the DT postcode area, we are ideally placed to reach those we support across the local community. Home care is deeply personal, and we believe that the surroundings a person knows best, filled with their memories, belongings, and routines, are often where they thrive most. Our role is to bring compassionate, tailored support directly to your loved one's doorstep, allowing them to remain rooted in the place they call home whilst receiving the assistance they need.

Our team offers a genuinely broad range of specialisms, which means we are able to walk alongside people at many different stages and circumstances of life. We provide dedicated support for older people and those living with dementia, offering gentle, patient care that respects the individual behind the diagnosis. For adults with learning disabilities or autism, we focus on empowering independence and building trust through consistent, understanding support. We also assist people managing mental health conditions, physical disabilities, and visual or hearing impairments, adapting our approach to suit each person's unique way of engaging with the world.

Beyond this, our reach extends to younger adults, individuals recovering from or living with eating disorders, and those affected by alcohol or drug misuse. What this breadth means in practice is that families rarely need to look elsewhere as circumstances change. Whether the need is companionship, personal care, medication support, or more complex clinical assistance, we aim to be a steady presence, working closely with families, healthcare professionals, and the individuals themselves to shape care that feels right.

Our overall rating of Good from the Care Quality Commission reflects the standards we hold ourselves to across the areas that matter most. We were rated Good for being safe, effective, caring, and responsive at our most recent inspection in February 2023. We are honest that our Well led domain was noted as Requires Improvement, and we take that feedback seriously, using it as a genuine opportunity to strengthen our leadership, oversight, and internal culture so that every person we support continues to receive care of a consistently high standard.

Choosing home care for someone you love is a significant decision, and we understand that families often come to us with questions, worries, and hopes all mingled together. We are here to listen without rush and to talk you through how we might help. If you would like to learn more about how we could support your family member in Dorchester or the surrounding Dorset area, please do reach out. We would be honoured to begin that conversation with you.
