About BGS Healthcare
BGS Healthcare provides care and support in people's own homes in Chippenham and across Wiltshire. We work with older people, people living with dementia, adults with learning disabilities, autistic adults, people managing mental health conditions, people with physical disabilities, people living with sight or hearing loss, and younger adults. Working across a largely rural county shapes the practical side of this. Distances are real and villages are scattered, so a carer running late is half an hour late rather than five minutes. We plan rounds geographically and keep them stable, which also means people see the same few faces rather than whoever the rota threw up. Because we work with such a range of people, we do not offer one shape of support and hope it fits. We listen first, agree the arrangement in plain language, and revisit it honestly rather than leaving it in a folder. The work covers personal care, medication, meals, mobility, household jobs, shopping, appointments and company, and for some of the people we support it looks quite different, with somebody alongside them at college, at a group or on a journey they would not manage alone. At our most recent inspection the Care Quality Commission rated us good overall.
