About Poppy's Homecare
Poppy's Homecare provides care in people's own homes in Weston Super Mare and across North Somerset. We support older people, adults living with dementia, people living with mental health conditions, adults with a physical disability or a visual or hearing impairment, younger adults, and people affected by alcohol or drug misuse. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is outstanding. We are proud of that, and we are conscious it describes work already done rather than work still to do, so we treat it as a standard to keep hold of. What sits behind it is not complicated. We plan each package with the person rather than handing them a standard offer, we keep the same carers going to the same person wherever the rota allows, and we give carers the time a visit actually needs. Rushed care is poor care, and everybody involved in this work knows it. The support itself ranges from a short morning call covering washing, dressing and medication through to several visits a day, or longer support that helps a younger adult hold on to a tenancy and stay part of ordinary life. We also review arrangements honestly. If somebody needs less from us we say so. If the situation has changed and our support no longer fits it, we raise that too. Please ring us with any questions.
