About Yourlife

We are YourLife in Olney, providing care and support to people in their own homes here and in the surrounding area. We support older people and people living with dementia, people with physical disabilities, people with a visual or hearing impairment, and younger adults who need help with daily life. In practice that means personal care, support with medication, meals, shopping and housework, help getting out to appointments, and the company that often matters as much as any task on a care plan. The point of what we do is to make staying in your own home a realistic option for as long as you want it, with help that fits around your life rather than replacing it. So we start by asking what somebody actually wants from us and what they would rather keep doing for themselves. Support that quietly takes over is resented and then refused, so that distinction matters a great deal. We also try to keep the same small group of workers going to the same person, because a familiar face makes the practical side easier and means changes in health get noticed early. We have not yet received an overall rating from the Care Quality Commission. Until we have, please ask us direct questions about recruitment, training, supervision and who you can reach out of hours.
