About L S Care

L S Care provides care and support in people's own homes in Boldon Colliery and across South Tyneside. We work with older people, people living with dementia, adults with learning disabilities, autistic adults, people managing mental health conditions, people with physical disabilities, people living with sight or hearing loss, and younger adults. At our most recent inspection the Care Quality Commission rated us outstanding overall. We are proud of it and careful with it, because a rating describes one particular week and all the work that earned it has to carry on afterwards. What lies behind it is not complicated. We turn up when we said we would. We send carers the household already knows rather than whoever happens to be free. We build proper time into visits, because a real conversation and a meal eaten together cannot be done at speed. And we take seriously the parts that appear in no care plan: knowing how somebody takes their tea, noticing that the post has not been opened, understanding that a quarter of an hour of talk may be the only conversation somebody has that day. We also listen to complaints properly. Most of what we have improved started with somebody telling us plainly that something was not good enough. Do get in touch if you would like to talk about what might help.
