About Caringlinks
Caringlinks provides home care across Derby, supporting older adults, younger adults, people living with physical disabilities and people living with dementia to carry on living in their own homes. Our visits cover personal care, medication, meals, shopping, help with getting out and the general practical business of keeping a household going when that has become difficult. What the visits look like depends entirely on the person. One person may want fifteen minutes in the morning to get safely out of bed. Another may want several longer calls across the day. We work out which it is by asking, and then we arrange it rather than fitting the person to what we already run. Continuity of carer is the thing we protect hardest. It is the difference between an intrusion and a welcome visit, and it is also what makes carers notice when something is quietly going wrong. A regular carer spots the untouched meals or the unusual confusion long before anyone else would. We write plans in plain English, agree them with the person, and revisit them when things change. Families are kept informed as far as the person wishes. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please get in touch if you would like to discuss support at home in Derby.
