About DCAS Direct Personnel
DCAS Direct Personnel provides care and support in people's own homes across Haringey and the neighbouring parts of north London. We visit older people, adults living with dementia or mental health conditions, people with physical disabilities, people with sight or hearing loss, and younger adults who need help to live independently. Our most recent inspection by the Care Quality Commission rated us good overall. Every arrangement starts with a visit and a proper conversation in the person's own home. We want to understand what the day looks like now, where it goes wrong and what would make the biggest difference. Some people need one call each morning to get washed, dressed and properly fed. Others need several visits covering medication, meals, personal care and company. London is home to people from many backgrounds, and we ask about language, faith and food at the start so that we can match carers thoughtfully. Feeling comfortable with the person helping you wash is not a small matter. We plan rounds so that people see familiar carers rather than a stream of strangers, and we introduce anyone new properly. Our staff are trained before working unsupervised and supported by senior colleagues who visit, supervise and review. If you would like to discuss what care might look like for you or a relative, please get in touch and we will arrange to visit.
