About My Carer
My Carer provides care at home in Wantage and across the surrounding parts of Oxfordshire. We support people living with dementia, adults with mental health conditions, people with a physical disability or a visual or hearing impairment, people living with an eating disorder, and people in recovery from alcohol or drug misuse, including younger adults. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is Outstanding. We mention it early because it is what people want to know, and then we would rather talk about what sits behind it. It is not dramatic. It is turning up when we said we would, sending the same familiar people to the same households, training care workers for the particular person they are going to support, writing down what really happened, and telling families honestly when something has gone wrong. Some of our work is more specialised than home care is often assumed to be. Supporting somebody with an eating disorder, or somebody in recovery, calls for staff who are prepared for it specifically and who stay calm and consistent through a difficult stretch rather than treating a setback as a failure. A rating describes one point in time. Keeping it meaningful means carrying on with the work. If you are considering support at home in this area, we are glad to talk it through, including whether we are the right choice.
