About My Choice Home Care
My Choice Home Care provides care and support in people's own homes in Consett and the surrounding parts of County Durham. We are here so that people can stay in the place they know, with their own things around them, and receive help at the times that genuinely suit them. Most of our work is with older adults. That can mean a short call to help with getting up, washing, dressing and medication, help with meals, shopping and keeping the house in order, or longer visits for people who need closer support and a bit of company through the day. We adjust how long and how often we come as needs change, rather than leaving an arrangement in place because it was agreed months ago. We support people living with dementia, where the most useful thing we bring is a familiar person who is not hurrying and who already knows how this individual likes things done. We also support younger adults, whose days are shaped by work, study, family or their own plans, and whose care should fit around those things. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please ring us with any questions.
