About Care Response

We provide care at home in Ascot and the surrounding area, supporting older people, people living with dementia, people with mental health conditions, people with physical disabilities and people with visual or hearing impairments. Most people who approach us are trying to avoid a move they do not want. Our part in that is practical: visits at the times that suit, help with washing and dressing, support with medication, a hand with meals, shopping and housework, assistance to move about safely, and company for somebody who spends too much of the week alone. Where needs are greater we arrange more frequent calls, and where they change we revisit the plan rather than leaving it as it was first agreed. Continuity is the part we work hardest at. A carer who knows somebody notices when they are unwell, in pain or unusually quiet, and the person is spared explaining themselves again and again. For people living with dementia, a familiar and unhurried visit does more good than anything written in a care plan, and where sight or hearing is poor, small habits matter: saying who you are on coming in and leaving things where they were put. Our carers are trained for the needs they are asked to meet and can reach senior colleagues for advice. Our most recent inspection by the Care Quality Commission rated us good overall. If you are weighing up care at home, please get in touch.
