About Mulberry House
Mulberry House provides care at home for people in Gillingham and across Medway. We keep what we do straightforward: reliable, respectful support in the place where somebody already lives, for as much or as little of the day as they need. Most of our work is with older people. We help with washing and dressing, prompting and support with medication, meals and drinks, laundry, shopping and keeping the home comfortable. We also help people get out, whether that is to an appointment, to the shops or just for some air, because that is usually the part that goes first and the part people miss most. We support adults with mental health needs, where the most useful thing we do is turn up reliably, without judgement, and stay long enough to be of real use. We also support younger adults, arranging visits around work, study and family life rather than around our own convenience. Keeping the same care workers going to the same households matters to us. Familiarity means somebody notices when things are not quite right, and it means the person being visited is not forever explaining themselves to a stranger. Care is arranged after a proper conversation with the person and, if they want, their family, and reviewed as needs change. If something is not working we would far rather hear it early. Please ring us to talk it through.
