About Mencap and Derby City Domiciliary Care Agency

Mencap Derbyshire and Derby City Domiciliary Care Agency supports people with a learning disability and autistic adults in their own homes across Derbyshire and Derby. Our starting point is that the person is in charge of their own life and we are there to make it work. Support is planned with them, in a form they understand, and it is built around what they want to be doing rather than around a list of tasks. That might mean help to keep a tenancy going, to cook, shop and manage money, to get to work, college or the clubs and activities they enjoy, to keep on top of health appointments, or to have somebody steady alongside them in situations they find difficult. Personal care is part of it for some people and not for others. Communication is where we put most of our care. Where somebody does not use speech, we learn how they do tell us what they want and make sure every member of their team knows it, because a support worker who misreads a person creates problems that need never exist. Keeping teams small and consistent follows from the same thinking. We work with families, advocates and other professionals, always on terms the person themselves is content with, and where somebody wants to need us less over time we plan for that openly. The Care Quality Commission rated us good overall at our most recent inspection. Please get in touch to talk things through.
