About Chime Care
We provide care at home in Dartford and the surrounding parts of Kent, supporting older adults, people living with dementia, people with physical disabilities and younger adults. Our work covers washing and dressing, medication, meals, shopping and keeping a household ticking over, together with the company that a regular caller brings. For some of the people we visit, ours is the only knock at the door that day, and we do not treat the conversation as the part to trim when the round is running late. With dementia, consistency does most of the work: the same carer at the same time, in the same order, in a home where nothing has been moved about. Protecting that means building the rota around people rather than around convenience, which takes more organising and is plainly the right order. For people with physical disabilities we plan around what somebody can still manage themselves rather than what is fastest for us. We have not yet been given an overall rating by the Care Quality Commission, and we prefer to state that plainly than leave the gap unexplained. Ask us how we recruit, train and check our carers, and meet them beforehand.
