About Bridge-it Options

We provide care in people's own homes in and around Thatcham. The people we visit include older people and younger adults, people living with dementia, people with a learning disability or autism and people whose physical disabilities make daily life harder to manage alone. Our starting point is what somebody wants their own day to look like, not a list of what they can no longer do. From there the support might be a call each morning to get things off to a good start, help with medication and meals, assistance with shopping and housework, support to get out to work, college or an appointment, or a longer visit so that a family carer can have time to themselves. We plan our rounds so that people see the same carers. It is the single most useful thing we do. Familiar staff know where things are kept and what normal looks like for that person, which means they notice quickly when something has changed and can say so before it becomes serious. We agree what is needed with the person and whoever they want involved, put it in plain writing, and change it when their circumstances change rather than waiting for a scheduled review. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. If you are weighing up support at home for yourself or a relative, get in touch and we will talk it through honestly and without pressure.
