About Barakah HCS

Barakah HCS supports people in their own homes in Northampton and across West Northamptonshire. We visit older people, adults living with dementia, people with physical disabilities, those with sight or hearing loss and younger adults. Our starting point is a conversation rather than a form. What can somebody still manage, what has become hard work, what would they like their week to contain, and what would they rather we did not touch. Those answers become the plan, agreed with the person and with family where they want that, written plainly and revisited when life changes. Calls run from a short morning visit through to several longer ones a day, covering personal care, medication, meals, shopping, laundry and housework, help to get out to appointments, and time given to real company rather than a signature and out of the door. For people living with dementia we keep the same carers going in and the routine steady, because unfamiliarity is what unsettles people most. We keep rounds local so carers are not racing between calls, and we give notice when a regular carer is away. Staff train before working alone and are supervised in people's homes once they do. We are a newer team and have not yet had a full inspection of our own, which we would rather state plainly than leave you to discover. Please ask us anything before you decide.
