About Comficare

Comficare provides care and support in people's own homes across Barnstaple and the surrounding part of Devon. We work with older adults, younger adults, people living with dementia, people with physical disabilities, and people with loss of sight or hearing. We should be open about our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission, which is requires improvement. We would rather say it plainly here than have you find it elsewhere. We know which areas were identified, we have a plan of work under way covering staff training and supervision, the quality of our records, and how we communicate with people and their families, and we are glad to go through the detail with anyone considering us. The work itself goes on and it has to be done properly. We help people wash and dress, manage medication safely, prepare food and see that it is eaten, get out of the house, and keep a household running. This is a rural patch and distances are real, so we plan rotas so that visits arrive when we said they would. Please contact us and ask us whatever you need to ask.
