About Town and Country Care
We provide care at home in Whitby and the surrounding area, supporting older people and younger adults, including people living with dementia, adults with learning disabilities, autistic people and people with loss of sight or hearing. What we do depends on what somebody needs. It may be a visit in the morning to help with washing, dressing and medication, a hand with meals, shopping and housework, support to move about the house safely, or several calls a day where needs are greater. For younger adults it is more often about independence: running a home, getting out to work, college or something they enjoy, and managing the practical business of the week. Working across a coastal town and a good deal of moorland means reliability has to be planned rather than promised. We would rather tell you honestly which places and times we can cover than commit to visits we cannot keep. Where we do commit, we try to send the same carers consistently, because familiarity is what allows somebody to notice when a person is unwell or low in spirits, and for autistic people a predictable arrangement matters in the same way. Our carers are trained for the needs they are asked to meet and can reach senior colleagues for advice. Our most recent inspection by the Care Quality Commission rated us good overall. If you are thinking about care at home, please get in touch.
