About In Caring Hands
Here at In Caring Hands Wells, we provide home care to people living in Wells and the surrounding areas of Somerset. Our work centres on helping people remain in their own homes, in familiar surroundings, with as much independence as possible. For many of the people we support, staying at home is not just a preference but something genuinely important to their sense of self and wellbeing, and we take that seriously. We work with a wide range of people, including older adults, younger adults, and those living with a learning disability or autism. We also support people with physical disabilities and those experiencing visual or hearing impairment. Because the people we care for have such varying needs and circumstances, we take time to understand each person properly before putting any support in place. A plan that works well for one person may be entirely wrong for another, so we listen carefully and build our approach around the individual rather than the other way around. Day to day, our care workers visit people in their own homes, helping with things like personal care, daily routines, meal preparation, and companionship. We try to match people with care workers who suit them, because a good working relationship between a client and their care worker makes a real difference to how supported someone feels. We are based in Wells and are proud to be part of the local community here in Somerset. Being local matters to us. It means we are accessible, we understand the area, and we are not a distant organisation making decisions from afar. We are registered with the Care Quality Commission, and while we are currently awaiting our first formal rating, we welcome scrutiny and hold ourselves to high standards in everything we do. If you would like to find out more, please do get in touch.
