About Diamond Social Care

Diamond Social Care provides care and support in people's own homes in Ossett and across Wakefield. We visit older people, people living with dementia, people managing mental health conditions, people with physical disabilities, people living with sight or hearing loss, and younger adults. Most households find us at a moment of change. A fall, a hospital stay, a diagnosis, or the gradual arrival of the point at which managing alone stops making sense. Our first job in those weeks is to reduce the pressure without taking the household over. We pick up what has genuinely become hard and deliberately leave alone what somebody still manages, because capability removed for convenience is very difficult to get back. In practice that means help with washing and dressing, medication prompted or administered, meals, moving safely about the home, laundry, shopping, appointments and time to talk properly. Some households want one visit a week and others need four calls a day. For people living with dementia we hold to familiar carers at familiar times as far as the rota allows. Where sight or hearing loss is part of the picture we get the small habits right: announcing ourselves, leaving furniture where it lives, checking that aids and glasses are clean and working. We have not yet been given an overall rating by the Care Quality Commission. Please ask us directly about how we recruit, train and supervise our carers.
