About Tender Hands
Tender Hands supports people in their own homes in Godalming and the surrounding parts of Surrey. We work with older people and younger adults, with people living with dementia, with people who have learning disabilities and autism, and with people who have physical disabilities or a visual or hearing impairment. Home care is made up of small reliabilities rather than grand claims. Arriving at the time we said. Knowing which neighbour holds the spare key. Remembering that somebody prefers to wash before breakfast rather than after. None of that reads impressively, and all of it decides whether support feels like help or like an intrusion. Our carers assist with personal care, medication, meals, household tasks and getting out of the house, and we build the visits around the day a person already has. We keep the group of carers going to each household small, because familiarity is both a comfort and a safeguard. A carer who knows somebody well notices when they are less steady than last week and says something before it becomes urgent. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good.
