About Midlands Care Direct

Midlands Care Direct provides care and support in people's own homes across Leicester and Leicestershire. We believe most people would rather stay at home if the right help is there, and our work is about making that possible for as long as it makes sense. We support older adults with personal care, medication, meals and the everyday tasks that have become harder to manage. We support people living with dementia, where familiar faces and a steady routine are worth more than anything else on offer. We also work with adults who have a learning disability or who are autistic, adults managing mental health conditions, and younger adults who want support that helps them get on with their own plans rather than support that takes over. Care is arranged around the person. Some households want one short call a day, others need several visits or longer stretches of support, and needs change, particularly after illness or a stay in hospital. We review arrangements properly and adjust them rather than letting them drift out of date. Our carers are recruited carefully, trained for the tasks they carry out and supervised by senior staff who are available when advice is needed. We keep families in the picture and we speak up promptly if we are worried about someone. If you are considering care at home in Leicester or the surrounding county, please contact us. We are glad to visit, listen properly and set out clearly what we could do, with no obligation on your part.
