About Care Unlimited
We are Care Unlimited Dorchester, providing care at home to older people across the town and the surrounding parts of Dorset. Our focus is deliberately narrow. Supporting older people at home is what we know, and keeping to it means our carers become genuinely experienced rather than being asked to cover everything, and that we can be honest when somebody would be better served by a different provider. What we offer is practical and unglamorous, which is rather the point. Help getting up, washed and dressed. Support with medication. Meals prepared properly rather than heated and left. Help moving about safely at home. A hand with laundry, shopping and the small tasks that pile up when somebody cannot manage them any more. Company, too, which for a good many people is the part of the visit that matters most. We keep our carers working with the same people wherever possible. Familiarity makes the personal side of care far easier to accept, and it means changes in somebody's health get noticed by a person who knows what normal looks like for them. Everything begins with a visit and a proper conversation, and we adjust the plan as needs change rather than leaving it to drift. Please ring us if you are looking into care at home.
