About Sphere Specialist Healthcare
Sphere Specialist Healthcare supports people across Ashington and the surrounding part of Northumberland in their own homes. We plan support around what somebody wants their week to look like rather than around a standard package of tasks. We support older people who need help with daily living, and people living with dementia, where continuity and patience are worth more than anything written down. We work with adults who have a learning disability and with autistic adults, often with an emphasis on building confidence rather than taking tasks away from people. We also support people managing mental health conditions, where reliability and being genuinely listened to count for a great deal, people living with a physical disability and younger adults. We keep the same workers with the same people wherever we can. Being properly known makes it far easier for somebody to say when things are not going well, and it means changes get noticed early rather than late. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. We treat that as the standard to maintain rather than a badge. If you are looking into support at home in this area, we are glad to talk it through honestly.
