About Mettle & Bond Care
We are Mettle and Bond Care, a home care agency based in Oxted, Surrey. We support older people and younger adults in their own homes, including people living with dementia, people managing a mental health condition and people with a physical disability. Home care succeeds or fails on details that look minor from outside. Whether the carer arrives when they said they would. Whether it is the same carer. Whether they know that a particular door sticks, that the bins go out on a Tuesday, that one subject is best avoided this week. We put our effort into those, because the technical side of care is the easier half of the job. With dementia, continuity is not a nicety but the thing that makes a visit possible. With a mental health condition, the equivalent is consistency over time and carers who do not treat a difficult week as a reason to step back. We try to be honest with families from the start about what a package of visits can and cannot achieve, because that conversation early saves a good deal of difficulty later. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good.
