About Tetra Live - in Care

Tetra Live in Care supports people in their own homes in Hackney and the surrounding part of London, and much of our work is with adults who have physical disabilities. Live in care is a particular arrangement and it asks particular things of us. A carer is in somebody's home all day and much of the night, which can either feel like steady, unobtrusive support or like losing possession of your own house. Which of those it turns out to be depends almost entirely on matching and on manners, so we take both seriously. We introduce people properly, we pay attention to temperament and interests as well as to the practical help required, and we are clear that the household belongs to the person we are supporting. Where somebody has a physical disability, a great deal of independence turns on equipment, layout and exact timing. We help at the point of need rather than instead of the person trying, and we write down precisely how each person wants things done so that a relief carer gets it right from the start. Our carers are checked, trained and supervised, and they have senior colleagues they can reach when something unexpected happens. Our most recent inspection by the Care Quality Commission rated us good overall, and we are glad to discuss a particular situation.
