About Somerset Care Community Services
Somerset Care Community in Wiltshire supports people in their own homes in Melksham and across the county. We work with older people, people living with dementia, adults with a learning disability, autistic adults, people living with mental ill health, people with a physical disability, people with visual or hearing impairment and younger adults. We also support people living with eating disorders and people affected by alcohol or drug misuse. We take on a wide range of need on purpose. People's circumstances rarely stay neatly in one category, and being able to keep supporting somebody as things change matters more than tidy specialisms. Our visits cover personal care, support with medication, meals, help around the house and getting out and about. For younger adults and for people with a learning disability, the work is often less about personal care and more about making an ordinary week workable. Where we support people with eating disorders or with addiction, we work without judgement and alongside the clinicians involved. Covering a largely rural county means we build travel time into rotas properly so visits are not clipped short. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please get in touch to talk things through.
