About Tender touch care

Tender Touch Care provides support in people's own homes in Potters Bar and across Hertfordshire. We visit older people, people living with dementia and younger adults, helping with whatever has become difficult so that staying at home remains realistic. People usually find us after something has changed. A fall, a hospital stay, a diagnosis, or simply the point at which managing alone stops adding up. Our aim in the first weeks is to lift the pressure without taking the household over. We pick up the parts that have become hard, and deliberately leave alone the parts somebody still manages perfectly well, because ability that gets taken away for the sake of speed is very hard to recover. A week with us might include help washing and dressing, medication prompted or given, a cooked meal, help moving safely about the house, laundry, shopping, a lift to an appointment, or simply reliable company at a set time. Some households want one visit a week, others need several calls a day. For people living with dementia we keep the same carers coming at the same times wherever the rota allows, and we work with the routines already in place rather than replacing them with better ones of our own. We have not yet been given an overall rating by the Care Quality Commission. We are happy to talk openly about how we recruit, train and supervise, and about what we do when something goes wrong.
