About HW Homecare
We at HW Homecare are proud to offer compassionate home care across Hastings and the surrounding East Sussex community, supporting people to live well and safely in the place they know best: their own home. Being based in the TN postcode area, we serve families throughout Hastings and its neighbouring towns and villages along the South East coast. Rather than asking your loved one to adjust to a new environment, our team comes to them, whether that is a familiar family house, a bungalow, or a flat. This means treasured routines, favourite chairs by the window, and cherished memories woven into every room can remain a comforting part of daily life. Our care is tailored to a broad range of needs. We specialise in Older Person Care, offering practical and emotional support that helps people maintain independence and dignity as they age. For families navigating the challenges of Dementia Care, we provide patient, consistent support that focuses on reassurance, familiarity, and gentle encouragement, which can make an enormous difference to someone living with memory loss. We also support Younger Adults and individuals with Learning Disabilities or Autism, working closely with each person to understand their preferences, communication style, and goals so that our support genuinely enables them to live the life they choose. In practice, this means our carers can assist with everything from personal care, medication prompts, and mobility support, through to companionship, help with meals, and involvement in hobbies and community activities. We know that reliable, familiar faces matter enormously, particularly for those living with dementia or additional needs, and we work to build trusting relationships between our carers and the people we support. Our most recent CQC inspection, carried out in February 2022, gave us an overall rating of Requires Improvement. We want to be open and transparent about this. Inspectors rated us Good for being Caring and Responsive, which reflects the kindness, attentiveness, and person centred approach our team brings to every visit. The domains of Safe, Effective, and Well led were rated Requires Improvement, and we take this feedback seriously. It has shaped a clear programme of improvement across our operations, training, and leadership, because we believe families deserve nothing less than continual progress and honesty about where we are on that journey. If you are exploring home care options in Hastings for a parent, partner, or loved one, we warmly invite you to get in touch. Choosing the right support is a significant decision, and we are here to answer your questions, listen to your concerns, and help you consider whether our approach is the right fit for your family. Whatever you decide, we wish you every reassurance in finding the care that feels right.
