About Meridian Health and Social Care
Meridian Health and Social Care in Wakefield provides care and support in people's own homes across the district. We work with older adults, younger adults, people living with dementia, people with learning disabilities and autistic people, people with physical disabilities or loss of sight or hearing, and people managing mental health conditions. That is a wide remit and it only works if we start by listening. No two of these situations call for the same response, so we sit down with the person, find out what they want their days to look like and where help is genuinely needed, and build the visits from there. It takes longer at the outset and saves a great deal of trouble later. The support might be personal care, medication, meals, shopping, getting out of the house, household tasks, or simply company for somebody who lives alone and sees very few people. We keep the same carers with the same households as far as the rota allows, because familiarity is what makes the arrangement comfortable rather than intrusive. Our most recent rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please contact us to talk about support in Wakefield.
