About Dovestone Gardens

Dovestone Gardens provides care and support to people in their own homes in Burnley and the surrounding area, working with older people and with younger adults. Our aim is to make staying at home a realistic option rather than a daily struggle. For some people that means a short call each morning to help with getting up, washed and dressed, and perhaps a visit at bedtime. For others it is longer and more frequent support covering personal care, help with medication, preparing meals and drinks, moving about safely, and keeping on top of shopping, laundry and the house. The human side of this matters as much as the tasks. A carer who arrives when they said they would, knows the person and has a few minutes to talk makes a bigger difference to somebody's week than any care plan does. We keep the same people visiting the same households wherever the rota allows and we take timekeeping seriously. Our carers are trained for the work they take on and supervised in it. We keep families informed and work alongside GPs, community nurses and social workers where they are involved. If you are considering support at home in Burnley for yourself or a relative, please ring us and we will come out to see you.
