About Us

Five Stars Care provides support at home for people in Colchester and the surrounding part of Essex. Our carers visit people where they live, helping with the parts of the day that have become difficult while leaving the rest well alone.

Most of the people we visit are older and many are living with dementia. We also support younger adults. Everything begins with a proper conversation in your own home about your routine, your preferences and what you would rather carry on managing yourself. We write the plan from your answers and review it honestly as things change in either direction. If somebody has got their confidence back and needs less from us, we would rather say so than keep visits running out of habit.

Visits can cover personal care, help with medication, cooking a meal, shopping and housework, getting out to appointments, or simply company for somebody who sees very few people in a week. We keep care teams small so the same faces turn up, because being greeted by somebody you know changes the character of the whole visit, and for a person living with dementia it matters even more.

Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. We treat it as the standard we are expected to hold rather than something to advertise, and we keep asking the people we visit and their families whether we are doing what we promised. If you would like to talk about care at home in this area, please get in touch.
