About Abney & Baker (Bath)

We are Abney and Baker, working from Melksham and supporting people in their own homes across this part of Wiltshire and towards Bath. We work with older people and people living with dementia, people with a physical disability, younger adults who need support to live independently, people living with an eating disorder, and people whose lives have been affected by alcohol or drug use. Our visits are built to be unhurried. A great deal of what makes home care worth having happens around the practical task rather than in it, in the conversation while the kettle boils or on the walk to the postbox, and that does not fit into a rushed quarter of an hour. We would rather do fewer things properly than work through a checklist at speed. We give real thought to which carer visits which household and keep those arrangements steady, so that a genuine relationship can build. For some of the people we support, that relationship is what makes help acceptable at all. Every arrangement starts with a proper conversation at home, with family involved if the person wants that. Our carers are trained for the specific work they do and are properly supervised. Our most recent CQC overall rating is good. Please get in touch to discuss care at home.
