About Forget me not homecare services
Forget me not homecare supports people in their own homes across Ashington and the surrounding parts of Northumberland. We work with older people, adults living with dementia, those managing a mental health condition, people with a physical disability, and people living with a visual or hearing impairment. We also support younger adults who need help at home. Ours is a local service in a place where people know each other, and we think that shows in how we work. We are not trying to fit anyone into a standard package. We ask how a person likes their day to run, what they can manage perfectly well on their own and where a hand would genuinely help, then we write that down and follow it. Visits can cover personal care, medication, meals, housework, shopping, appointments and company. We work hard to send the same small group of carers to each person, at agreed times. A familiar face at a predictable hour is worth a lot, especially to someone living with memory difficulties or a sensory impairment, and it means our staff notice when something has changed. Carers are trained for the needs they actually meet, including dementia support, and they are supervised properly rather than left to manage alone. Families are kept informed and can always reach us. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please ring if you would like to talk things through.
