About Carefound Home Care
Carefound Home Care in Wilmslow supports people in their own homes across the town and the surrounding area. We work with older people and with younger adults, and our experience covers dementia, mental health needs, physical disabilities, and sight and hearing loss. Our visits tend to be longer than is usual in this work, and that is deliberate. A great deal of what makes care at home valuable cannot be done in fifteen minutes. Sitting down with somebody. Noticing that they have eaten less this week, or that the post has not been opened. Having the conversation that leads to a problem being dealt with early rather than in an emergency. We would rather do fewer, better visits than more rushed ones. We match carers to people with real care, taking account of temperament and interests as well as the practical help required, and we keep those pairings steady. Being helped to wash and dress is a close thing to allow, and familiarity makes it far easier. Where a change is unavoidable we introduce the new carer properly rather than simply sending them. With dementia we pay close attention to timing, routine and familiar faces, and we work with families rather than around them, including when the honest conversation is a difficult one. Our most recent inspection by the Care Quality Commission rated us outstanding overall, which we read as a sign that the ordinary things are being done consistently.
