About The Orchards
We are a home care agency working in and around Northallerton, supporting people in their own homes across this part of North Yorkshire. The people we visit include older people, many of them living with dementia, adults with a learning disability or autism, people with mental health needs, people with physical disabilities and people living with sight or hearing loss, as well as younger adults. Rural North Yorkshire brings its own challenges. Distances are real, and so is isolation, and for a number of the people we support ours is the regular knock at the door in the week. We take that seriously. A visit is not only the tasks in the care plan, it is also somebody noticing whether a person seems well, whether the house is warm and whether anything has changed since last time. Support might be short calls for personal care and medication, or longer visits built around getting out and staying connected, or something much more substantial where that is what allows somebody to remain at home. We agree it with the person and adjust it as needs change. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. If you are thinking about care at home for yourself or for a relative anywhere in this area, please ring us and we will talk it through without any pressure.
