About Chelmscare

Chelmscare supports adults at home in Borehamwood and across Hertfordshire. We work in people's own houses and flats, fitting our visits around the household that is already there rather than expecting anyone to rearrange their life around a rota. We support older people, including many living with dementia, alongside adults with a learning disability and autistic adults, people managing a mental health condition, people with a physical disability and younger adults. Visits can be short and practical or considerably more involved, covering personal care, prompting and help with medication, cooking and meals, housework and laundry, moving about safely, getting to appointments and having reliable company. We agree each package with the person and whoever else is close to them, and we set out clearly what every visit is meant to achieve so nobody is left working it out at the door. Continuity of carers is planned for rather than hoped for, especially in dementia care, and we say so honestly when a change cannot be avoided. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. We treat that as the standard people are owed rather than something to advertise. If you are considering home care in Hertfordshire, we are glad to visit, listen and be straightforward about what we can offer.
