About Comfort Home Care

Comfort Home Care provides care and support in people's own homes in Tiverton and across Devon. We visit older people, people living with dementia, people with physical disabilities, people living with sight or hearing loss, and younger adults. Working across a largely rural county shapes how we do this. Distances are real and villages are scattered, so a carer running late is half an hour late rather than five minutes. We plan rounds geographically and keep them stable, which has the useful effect that people see the same few faces rather than whoever the rota threw up. Familiarity is the most valuable thing we have and it is easily wasted. The work covers personal care, medication, meals, moving safely about the house, household jobs, shopping and appointments, through to sitting with somebody so that a family carer can leave the house without worrying. Where sight or hearing loss is part of the picture, habits matter more than equipment: saying who we are as we come in, leaving furniture exactly where it lives, checking that glasses and hearing aids are clean and working. Because we are often the only people through the door in a week, noticing is genuinely part of the job. At our most recent inspection the Care Quality Commission rated us good overall.
