About Walfinch
Walfinch Eastbourne is a home care agency supporting people in their own homes across the town and the surrounding area. We visit older people and younger adults. Calls range from half an hour in the morning to help somebody wash, dress and get going, through to several visits a day covering medication, meals, safe movement around the house, shopping and appointments. For a good many people a single visit each morning is what makes the rest of the day possible. We are registered with the Care Quality Commission and have not yet been given an overall rating. We would rather set that out here than have a family come across it later, and we would encourage anyone considering us to meet the manager and ask for references. Continuity is what we guard most carefully. A care worker who has visited the same person for months notices the change that a stranger would walk straight past, and that noticing often prevents a hospital admission. If you are arranging care at home locally, please get in touch and we will come out and talk it through.
