About Egalite Care
We are Egalite Care, a home care agency supporting adults in their own homes across Worthing and this part of West Sussex. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is outstanding. We are proud of that and also clear about what it means. It is not a promise that nothing will ever go wrong. It reflects the fact that we know the people we support well, that our workers are properly trained and supervised, and that when something needs putting right we deal with it rather than explaining it away. We support older people and people living with dementia, adults with learning disabilities or autism, people living with mental health conditions, people with physical disabilities, people with a visual or hearing impairment, and younger adults who want help to live independently. Support might be a single call each morning or several visits covering personal care, medication, meals, housework and company. We start by asking what somebody actually wants from us and what they would rather keep doing for themselves, and we keep the same small group of workers around each person wherever we can. Please get in touch if you would like to talk about support at home, and ask us whatever you wish.
