About United Response - East & Plymouth DCA
United Response in East Cornwall and Plymouth provides support to people in their own homes across Callington and the surrounding area. We work with adults who have a learning disability, with autistic adults, with older people, with younger adults, with people living with dementia, with people who have physical disabilities, and with people managing mental health conditions. A great deal of our work is about enabling rather than caring in the traditional sense. The aim is somebody running their own home, managing their own money as far as they can, getting to work or college, keeping appointments and seeing the people they choose. We do the parts that genuinely need doing for a person and leave the rest alone, even when doing it ourselves would be quicker. Cornwall brings its own practical difficulties, with real distances between calls, so we plan rotas carefully and would rather cover a smaller area properly than a wider one badly. We match staff to people with care and keep those teams small and steady, because the relationship is where the value lies. Our most recent rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please get in touch to talk about support.
