About Eaves Court
We at Eaves Court are proud to provide compassionate home care across Princes Risborough and the surrounding communities of Buckinghamshire, supporting older people and adults to live well within the comfort and familiarity of their own homes. Based in the HP postcode area, our team serves families throughout Princes Risborough and the wider South East, bringing personalised support directly to the doorsteps of those who need it. There is something quietly powerful about receiving care at home, surrounded by treasured belongings, cherished memories, and the routines that make a house feel truly your own. Our carers travel to you, working thoughtfully within your space and respecting the rhythm of your daily life. Our specialisms reflect the diverse needs of the people we support. We provide dedicated older person care and general home care, alongside specialist support for individuals living with dementia, mental health conditions, physical disabilities, visual or hearing impairments, and eating disorders. In practice, this means our approach is never one size fits all. For a person living with dementia, this might mean gentle reassurance, consistent routines, and carers who take the time to understand personal history and preferences. For someone with a physical disability, it may involve practical assistance with mobility and daily tasks whilst preserving independence and dignity. For families supporting a loved one with a mental health condition or an eating disorder, our involvement offers steady, respectful support alongside professional understanding of complex needs. For families, this breadth of expertise brings peace of mind. Knowing that a relative is being looked after by carers who understand their particular circumstances, whether that involves sensory impairment, cognitive change, or emotional wellbeing, allows loved ones to breathe more easily and enjoy quality time together rather than shouldering every task alone. Eaves Court holds an overall rating of Good from the Care Quality Commission, following its most recent inspection. The Safe, Effective, Caring, and Responsive domains were each rated Good, reflecting the warmth, competence, and attentiveness that shape our everyday practice. The Well-led domain was rated as Requires Improvement, and we view this feedback as a valuable opportunity to strengthen our leadership and governance so that the quality of care our residents experience is matched at every level of the organisation. If you are exploring home care options for yourself or someone you love in Princes Risborough or nearby, we warmly invite you to get in touch. Choosing care is a deeply personal decision, and we are here to listen, answer your questions, and help you understand whether our support is the right fit for your family. Whatever stage you are at in your search, you are welcome to reach out.
