About MCK Support
MCK Support is a home care agency in Dartford, supporting younger adults in their own homes across this part of Kent. We work with people who have a learning disability and with autistic people. The people we support are mostly at a stage of life where the question is not how to be looked after but how to get on with things. A tenancy, work or college, friendships, managing money, cooking, travelling independently. Our support is built around those ambitions rather than around a care plan that treats somebody as a set of needs. So we try to do as little as necessary and as much as is genuinely required. If a person wants to learn a bus route alone, we go with them until they no longer need us to. Where personal care is needed we give it properly and without making a performance of it. Where anxiety means some weeks are much harder than others, we expect that and we do not treat a bad fortnight as a failure. Communication is where most of our effort goes. Some of the people we support do not use speech, and almost every serious problem we are called in to resolve began with nobody slowing down enough to listen. For autistic people in particular, predictability and honest information about what happens next matter enormously, so we say what is coming before it arrives. The Care Quality Commission has not yet given us an overall rating. Talk to us and we will be realistic about what we can offer.
