About CaringSmart
CaringSmart in Somerset provides care and support in people's own homes in Taunton and the surrounding area. Staying at home is what most people want, and our job is to make that a dependable option rather than one that quietly stops working. We support older adults with the everyday things that have become difficult: personal care, medication, meals, keeping the house running and getting out safely when they want to. We support people living with dementia, and we concentrate on continuity, because a familiar worker arriving when expected does more good than anything else we could arrange. We work with people who have physical disabilities, helping with washing, dressing and mobility while leaving the person deciding how it is done, and with people who have a visual or hearing impairment, adapting how we announce ourselves, speak and explain what we are about to do. We also support younger adults, whose care fits around work, study, family and independence. We keep the number of different workers going to each person as small as we can manage, because trust is built through familiarity. We do not currently hold an overall rating from the Care Quality Commission. Please get in touch and ask us anything at all before deciding.
