About Abney & Baker
We provide care in people's own homes in Bath and the surrounding area. Our purpose is to make staying at home workable, with support that arrives when it is supposed to and is delivered by carers the household knows. Most of the people we visit are older and want help with the practical business of the day: washing and dressing, getting breakfast, taking medication properly, keeping on top of the house and getting out to appointments or the shops. We support people living with dementia, where a familiar carer and a settled routine can decide how the whole day goes, along with people who have a physical disability and younger adults needing support to live independently. We keep teams small around each person on purpose. It spares people from constantly meeting strangers, and it means our carers know somebody well enough to spot when things are changing. Everything starts with a home visit and an unhurried conversation about what would actually help, rather than what a referral form says. The plan that follows is agreed with the person and reviewed as circumstances move on. If you are looking at care at home in Bath or the villages around it, please get in touch and we will come out and talk it through with you.
