About Mickle Hill
Mickle Hill in Pickering provides care and support for people living in their own apartments here, with staff on site rather than travelling between visits. That makes a real difference, because help can be there when it is needed rather than only at a planned time. For older people we help with washing and dressing, medication, meals, laundry and getting out and about, and we keep an eye on the wider picture, raising changes in appetite, mood or steadiness early. For people living with dementia we keep familiar faces involved, work with the routine that already suits the person and avoid unnecessary change. We support adults with mental health needs, where a calm and reliable presence does most of the good, and people with a physical disability who need help to move safely and manage as independently as possible. Where somebody has sight or hearing loss we adapt how we communicate and take care not to move things without saying so. We also support younger adults. Support is agreed with the person, and with their family where they want that, and reviewed properly as things change. Having your own front door matters, and we try never to forget that this is somebody's home first. Please contact us if you would like to know more.
