About Shaftesbury St Giles
Shaftesbury St Giles provides care in people's own homes across Chelmsford and the surrounding part of Essex. We support older people, people living with dementia, adults with a learning disability and autistic adults, people managing mental health conditions, people with physical disabilities and people with sight or hearing loss. Younger adults are part of our work too, and their support has to fit around work, study and family rather than displacing it. We begin by coming out and talking. We want to understand how a household already runs, what somebody actually wants help with and what they would rather keep doing themselves. It is surprisingly common for the most important thing to be something nobody thought to put on a list, and we would rather find that out at the start. From there it is about doing simple things reliably. Arriving when we said we would. Keeping the same carers with the same households so trust has a chance to build. Handing over properly so nobody has to explain themselves twice. Saying early when something has changed. We are honest about what we can take on, and we will say if we are not the right fit. If you would like to talk about support at home, please get in touch and we will arrange to visit.
