About Support at Home
We provide care and support to older people in their own homes in Lancing and the surrounding area. Our purpose is straightforward: to make staying at home a realistic choice rather than a daily struggle. What that takes varies from one person to the next, so we work it out at home rather than offering a standard package. For some people a single morning call is plenty, to help with washing and dressing and to make sure medication has been taken. For others we come several times a day, with meals prepared, shopping fetched, the house kept in order, company, and a hand to get to an appointment or simply out for a while. Some want a great deal of help and others want very little and would rather we did not take over the rest. Reliability is what matters most and it is mostly unglamorous. Arriving when we said we would. Staying the full visit. Sending carers the person already knows, because having to explain your own household to a stranger every week wears somebody down. Ringing a family before they have to ring us. We keep our rounds tight and local so those are realistic. Everybody who works for us is checked and trained before they visit anyone, and we are registered with and regulated by the Care Quality Commission. If you are considering care at home, please ring and ask us anything.
