About Old Castle Road

We are the care team based at Old Castle Road in Weymouth, supporting people in their own homes across the town and the surrounding parts of Dorset. We work with older people and younger adults, people living with dementia or a mental health condition, people with a learning disability or autism, people with a physical disability, people with a visual or hearing impairment, people managing an eating disorder and people dealing with alcohol or drug misuse. That breadth means we cannot work from a single template. We sit down at the start, work out what would genuinely make a difference to the person in front of us, and build the support around that rather than around what is easiest to staff. Visits cover personal care, support with medication, meals and drinks, help around the house and with shopping, and support to get out to appointments or into town. Where a visit is as much about company and a steady routine as it is about tasks, we say so openly. The Care Quality Commission has not yet published an overall rating for us. We welcome questions about recruitment, training, supervision and how we handle concerns. Please get in touch if you would like to talk about care at home in this part of Dorset.
