About Skilled Care
We are Skilled Care, and we support adults in their own homes in Ilford and across the London borough of Redbridge. Our visits range from a single short call each day through to several hours of support, arranged to fit the person's routine rather than our rota. We help older people with washing and dressing, medication, meals, shopping and the household jobs that become harder with time. We support adults living with dementia, and here we put real weight on continuity, because a familiar voice at the door achieves more than any amount of paperwork, so we keep the same care workers with the same households as far as the rota allows. We also support people with physical disabilities, taking care over equipment and over how each person prefers to be assisted, people living with sight or hearing loss, and younger adults who want help that reduces as their confidence grows. Nothing begins without a visit and a conversation at home, with family or an advocate present if that is wanted. This is a diverse borough, so we ask about language, faith and food instead of assuming. Our care workers are recruited with full checks and references, trained before working alone and properly supervised. We are registered with the Care Quality Commission. Please get in touch.
