About Konastone Healthcare
Konastone Healthcare provides care and support to people in their own homes in Tipton and across the Sandwell area. The people we work with include older people, younger adults, people living with dementia, people with learning disabilities, autistic people, people managing mental health conditions or an eating disorder, people with physical disabilities and people with sight or hearing loss. That is a wide range of need, and the thing holding it together is that we start from the person rather than from a package. We visit first, listen properly, and agree what help is wanted, how often and who will provide it, with family or an advocate involved whenever somebody wants them there. Reliability is the substance of this work. Arriving when we said we would, with somebody who already knows the household, is worth more than anything we could claim here. So we keep teams small and local, brief staff properly before they start with somebody new, and avoid unannounced substitutions. Where a person's needs call for particular knowledge, whether that is an eating disorder, advanced dementia or a mental health condition, we make sure the people visiting understand it and we work alongside the relevant community and clinical teams rather than around them. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. If you would like to talk about support for yourself or a relative, please call us and we will arrange to come out.
