About Cherry Homecare

Cherry Homecare supports people in their own homes in Lydney and across this part of Gloucestershire. We work with older people, people living with dementia, adults with a physical disability, people with visual or hearing impairment and younger adults. Covering a largely rural area shapes how we work. Distances are real and so is isolation, and for some of the people we visit we are the main face they see in a day. We build travel time into rotas properly so that visits are not clipped short, and we keep the same carers going to the same households wherever we can. Our visits cover personal care, support with medication, meals, help around the house and getting out to appointments or into town. Alongside that sits the part of the job that never appears on a timesheet, which is noticing. Someone eating less, a sore area starting, a person who has gone quiet. We begin by asking what the person wants help with rather than working from a form. People are usually clear about what they can still manage and would rather keep doing for themselves. Where sight or hearing is reduced, we adapt how we communicate and keep things where the person expects to find them. Please ring us if you would like to talk things through.
