About Umbrella Care (Midlands)
Umbrella Care supports people in their own homes in Leek and the surrounding parts of Staffordshire. We work with adults living with dementia, adults with learning disabilities and autistic adults, people with physical disabilities, people with sight or hearing loss, and younger adults who want to live independently with some help in place. Our most recent inspection by the Care Quality Commission rated us good overall. Home care is a practical business. It is about someone arriving when they said they would, knowing how a person likes their tea, noticing that the fridge is emptier than it should be and doing something about it. We build our visits around what the person actually needs, whether that is a short call to help with medication and breakfast or a longer visit covering personal care, meals and company. We keep our rounds local and our teams small so that people see familiar faces. Carers are trained before they work unsupervised, and senior staff carry out spot checks and reviews rather than assuming everything is fine. When someone's needs change we say so and we adjust the plan, and where we think a different kind of support would serve someone better we will tell you that too. Families often carry a great deal, and good home care should lighten that load rather than add to it. If you would like to talk through what might work, please contact us and we will arrange to visit at a time that suits you.
