About Eldon Housing Association
We provide care at home to older people in Croydon, supporting them in their own homes with the everyday things that have become difficult. We have kept our focus narrow, and we would rather say that plainly than present ourselves as able to do everything. Our work is washing and dressing, medication, meals, shopping and keeping a household running, alongside the company that a regular caller brings. We aim it at what has genuinely become difficult and leave alone what the person would rather keep managing themselves. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is requires improvement. We would rather put that here than have a family find it elsewhere and wonder why we said nothing about it. We accept what was identified and we are working through it. We are not going to claim in a paragraph that everything is resolved, because that would not be honest. What we would ask is that anybody considering us puts the question to us directly and presses for specifics: what was found, what has changed, and what is still in hand. We would also encourage people to speak to those we already visit, since their account of us is worth more than ours.
