About Dolphin Healthcare

We are Dolphin Healthcare in Wiltshire, a home care agency based in Salisbury. We provide care and support to adults in their own homes. We support older people and people living with dementia, people living with mental health conditions, people with physical disabilities, people with a visual or hearing impairment, and younger adults who need help with daily life. Depending on the person, that might be one short call a day or several visits covering personal care, medication, meals, housework, shopping and company. Covering a city and a good deal of surrounding countryside, we plan our rounds realistically. A rural visit should be as dependable as one in the middle of Salisbury, and if we cannot promise that we would rather say so at the outset than let somebody down later. We ask to be judged on reliability, because that is what home care lives or dies by. Keeping to agreed times. Staying the full visit rather than rushing off. Sending familiar faces rather than a different worker each day. Writing down what we did, so a change in somebody's health is picked up early rather than late. Please ring us if you would like to talk about care at home, and we will be straightforward about what we can offer and when we could start.
