About Tailored Family Support
Tailored Family Support is a home care agency in Consett, visiting people in their own homes across County Durham. We support older people, younger adults and people living with dementia. Our name reflects how we try to work. A care plan written in an office is worth very little if it does not match the household it lands in, so we start by sitting down with the person and, where they want it, with their family, and working out what would genuinely help. Sometimes that is assistance with washing, dressing and medication. Sometimes it is meals, shopping and keeping the house in order. Often it is simply someone reliable arriving, which matters more than people expect. For those living with dementia we keep visits familiar and calm and try to send the same carers, because recognising the person at the door does a great deal of good before anything else has happened. We are registered with the Care Quality Commission and have not yet been given an overall rating. Rather than ask anyone to take our word for it, we would encourage you to put hard questions to us about training, staffing and what happens when a visit cannot go ahead, and we will answer them straight. If you are thinking about support at home in or around Consett, please get in touch and we will talk it through with no obligation.
