About Welcombe Care
Welcombe Care is a home care agency in Stratford Upon Avon, supporting people in their own homes across Warwickshire. We work with older people, people living with dementia, adults with a physical disability, people with visual or hearing impairment and younger adults. Our starting point is the life someone already has. Home care should fit into it, not reorganise it. So the first conversation is about how the day runs, what has become difficult, and what the person would rather keep doing for themselves. The care plan comes out of that rather than out of a template. Visits cover personal care, support with medication, meals, help around the house and getting out to appointments or into town. For some people we are a short term arrangement during recovery. For others we are part of the week for years, and the relationship becomes as important as the tasks. We put effort into sending the same carers to the same people. Where someone lives with dementia or has reduced sight or hearing, familiarity is not a nicety. It is what makes the visit work at all. We also keep timings steady, because a call that drifts can unsettle a whole day. We talk to families, and we flag changes early, whether that is weight loss, a sore area or someone becoming low in themselves. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Do get in touch if you would like to talk through what we could offer.
