About Kensey Care Services
Here at Kensey Care, we provide home care support to people living in Launceston and the surrounding areas of Cornwall. Our work covers a wide range of needs, including support for older people, those living with dementia, mental health conditions, physical disabilities, and visual or hearing impairments. We also work with younger adults who need a little extra help to live as independently as possible in their own homes. We believe that being cared for in a familiar environment makes a real difference to how people feel day to day. Home is where routines are comfortable, where memories live, and where people can hold onto the things that matter most to them. Our role is to support that, not disrupt it. Our team works closely with the people we support and their families to understand what good care actually looks like for each individual. No two people are the same, and we take time to get to know those in our care properly, not just their needs on paper but who they are as people. We are proud that our most recent Care Quality Commission inspection resulted in a rating of Good across the board. That recognition matters to us, though what matters more is hearing from the people we support that they feel safe, respected and genuinely looked after. If you are thinking about care for yourself or someone close to you, we know it can feel like a big step. We are always happy to have an honest conversation about what support might look like and whether we are the right fit. There is no pressure and no rush. We are based in Launceston and are deeply rooted in the local community here in Cornwall. We would love to hear from you.
