About Alpha May Care First
Alpha May Care First is a home care agency in Brighton, supporting people in their own homes across Brighton and Hove. We work with older people and younger adults, with people living with dementia, with people who have a learning disability, with autistic people, with people who have mental health needs, with people who have physical disabilities and with people who have sight or hearing loss. That range of need rules out any standard package. We begin by sitting down with the person and anyone they want present, work out what their day and week actually need to look like, and write the plan around that. It may be a brief morning call to help someone wash, dress and start safely. It may be support with medication, meals and mobility, help with household tasks, or support to get out to work, to an appointment or to something a person simply enjoys. Plans are reviewed when circumstances change, and we ask clients and families to tell us plainly when something is not working so we can put it right quickly. We keep the same small team visiting each person wherever we can, and our carers are trained for the particular needs of the people they see. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. We are glad of it, and the better measure is whether our clients across Brighton and Hove feel safe, respected and in control at home.
