About Ashcroft Homecare
We are a home care agency in Clitheroe, supporting people in their own homes across the Ribble Valley and the wider area. We work with older people and younger adults, including people living with dementia, people with physical disabilities and people with loss of sight or hearing. What we provide depends on what someone needs and wants. It may be a visit in the morning to help with washing, dressing and medication, a hand with meals, shopping and housework, support to move about the house safely, or several calls a day where needs are greater. For people living with dementia, much of the value lies in the carer being familiar and unhurried, which is a good deal harder to arrange than it sounds and worth the effort. We work in a largely rural area, so reliability takes planning. We would rather tell you honestly which villages and times we can cover than promise visits we cannot keep. Where we do commit, we try to send the same carers consistently, because that is what allows someone to notice when a person is unwell or low. Our carers are trained for the needs they are asked to meet and can reach senior colleagues for advice. Our most recent inspection by the Care Quality Commission rated us good overall. If you are thinking about care at home for yourself or a relative, please get in touch and we will talk it through without any pressure.
