About Agape Care
We are Agape Care, a home care agency in Chatham, in the Medway towns. We support people in their own homes, working with older people and younger adults, people living with dementia, adults with learning disabilities and autistic adults, people managing a mental health condition, people with a physical disability or a sensory impairment, and people affected by alcohol and drug misuse. That range means there is no standard package to offer, and we do not pretend there is. Our first conversation is about the person's ordinary day, what has become difficult and what they want to keep managing themselves, and everything is built from those answers. Some of the people we support need patience over a long stretch rather than intensity over a short one. Where progress is not a straight line, the most useful thing a carer can be is steady and unshockable, arriving as agreed and not treating a difficult week as a reason to withdraw. We work alongside GPs, community teams and social workers, and we keep the same carers with the same people wherever the rota allows. We are registered with the Care Quality Commission and have not yet been given an overall rating.
