About CareYourWay Chilterns and South
CareYourWay Chilterns and South Buckinghamshire is a home care agency based in Amersham, supporting people in their own homes across this part of Buckinghamshire. We work with older people and younger adults, with people living with dementia and with people who have a physical disability. The name is the intention. People should get support on their own terms, in their own home, arranged around their life rather than our convenience. So we begin by asking what somebody wants help with and what they would rather keep doing themselves, and we write the support around those answers. In practice that covers personal care, medication managed and recorded properly, meals cooked, help to move safely about the house, and company for people whose week might otherwise contain very little of it. For families who have been holding a situation together on their own, it often means a reliable break. We send the same carers to the same people wherever we possibly can. Continuity is how home care actually works: a carer who knows somebody notices the untouched meal, the new bruise or the change in mood, and acts on it. For people living with dementia, familiarity and an unhurried pace do more than any amount of explanation, and relatives usually know the details that make a visit go smoothly. We have not yet been given an overall rating by the Care Quality Commission. We are glad to explain how we work and to introduce you to the team first.
