About Selborne Care DCA
Selborne Care supports adults in their own homes in Gloucester and the surrounding area. We work with older people and younger adults, people living with dementia, adults with learning disabilities and autism, people managing mental health conditions, people with physical disabilities and people with sight or hearing loss. We also support people with eating disorders and people whose lives have been affected by alcohol or drug misuse. Our visits cover personal care, medicines, meals, the household, shopping and getting out and about, arranged around the times that suit the person rather than the times that suit a rota. For younger adults it is often about building the practical skills independent living asks for, and there we count it a success when we are needed less as time goes on. Continuity is what makes home care work. Being helped with personal care by somebody unfamiliar is genuinely difficult, and for anybody living with dementia an unexpected face can unsettle a whole morning, so we keep the team around each person small and give notice when a change is unavoidable. For people with mental health needs, and for people recovering from alcohol or drug misuse, reliability and an absence of judgement count for a great deal. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good.
