About Greigcare
Greigcare provides support at home to adults in Banbury and across Oxfordshire. The people we work with include older people who need help to stay in their own houses, adults living with dementia, people living with mental health conditions, people with physical disabilities, people with a visual or hearing impairment and people dealing with alcohol or drug misuse. That is a wide range, and it works because support is built around the individual rather than issued as a standard package. A morning call to help an older person wash and dress has very little in common with supporting somebody through recovery, and we assess properly, agree the support with the person, and change it when their circumstances change. Some of the areas we work in carry real stigma, and people have often had more experience of being judged than helped. We try to be straightforward and useful instead. Staff are expected to be reliable, discreet and honest, and to remember that they are guests in somebody's home. The practical work covers personal care, support and prompting with medication, meals, household tasks, shopping and help to get out and about. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please get in touch if you are arranging care at home locally.
