About Unit 1 Queens Head Chambers
We are based at Queens Head Chambers in Clacton on Sea, and we provide care in people's own homes across this part of Essex. The people we visit are a wide group: older people, many living with dementia, adults with learning disabilities and autistic people, adults living with mental ill health, people with physical disabilities, people living with sight or hearing loss, and younger adults. Because the range is broad, we do not begin from a fixed offer. We begin with the person, in their own home, asking how the day actually runs, what has become difficult, what they want to keep doing themselves, and where help would genuinely help. The support plan comes out of that conversation and is revised as circumstances change. In practice that might mean personal care, a prompt and a check with medication, meals cooked and eaten with company, help getting safely about the house, support to get out to work, college or the shops, or reliable company for somebody who has become isolated. For autistic people especially, predictability matters a great deal, so changes are explained in advance and staffing is kept steady wherever the rota allows. For people living with dementia, familiarity does more good than anything else we could offer, so we work hard at continuity of staff. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Ring us if you would like to talk it through.
