About Profad Care Agency Cumbria Branch

Profad Care Agency supports people in their own homes across Carlisle and the wider Cumberland area. Care at home should fit around a life that already exists, so we begin by asking what somebody wants to keep doing themselves and where help would actually be welcome. We visit older people who need support with personal care, medication, meals and the ordinary running of a household, and we support people living with dementia, where a familiar carer arriving at a familiar time can settle an unsettled morning. We also work with adults who have physical disabilities, people with a visual or hearing impairment, younger adults and people managing mental ill health, adapting how we communicate and how we work to the person in front of us. This is a large and partly rural area, and scheduling matters. A visit that arrives late to somebody waiting on their own is a visit that has failed, so we plan rounds realistically and tell families the truth about what we can cover rather than promising more than we can deliver. We protect continuity of carer as far as we can, because trust takes time to build and very little to lose. Plans are agreed with the person, written down plainly and reviewed properly when circumstances shift. If you are looking into care at home in Cumbria, for yourself or someone close to you, we are happy to talk through what would work.
