About Woodward Healthcare
Woodward Healthcare is a home care agency in Grays, supporting people in their own homes across Thurrock. Most of our work is with older adults, a good number living with dementia. We also support younger adults, people managing a mental health condition, people with a physical disability, and people who are blind, partially sighted, deaf or hard of hearing. We take on work involving alcohol or drugs as well, which a fair number of agencies quietly avoid. That last point deserves saying plainly. Supporting somebody alongside a drink or drug problem calls for steadiness rather than judgement, for turning up again after a week that went badly, and for knowing when a situation needs somebody other than us. We recruit and supervise with that in mind and we are honest about the limits of what we can offer. The practical help is the same across all of it. Washing and dressing, medicines, meals, shopping, housework, appointments, getting out of the house, and someone keeping a quiet eye on how a person is doing from week to week. We have not yet had a full inspection by the Care Quality Commission, so there is no overall rating to show you. We would rather state that plainly than talk around it. Ring us and we will visit, assess honestly and tell you if we are not the right agency.
