About Golden Touch Home Care Services
We provide care at home in Bewdley and the surrounding part of Worcestershire, supporting older people, people living with dementia, people with physical disabilities and people with visual or hearing impairments. Our part is practical. We arrange visits at the times that suit, help with washing and dressing, support with medication, a hand with meals, shopping and housework, and assistance to move about the house safely. Where needs are greater we arrange more frequent calls, and where they change we review the plan rather than leaving it as it was first agreed. For people living with dementia, a familiar and unhurried carer does more good than anything written down, so we try to send the same staff to the same households. What people really judge an agency on is whether carers arrive when they said they would and whether it is the same faces each week. Those are the things we are working on hardest. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission was requires improvement. We would rather tell you that ourselves than leave you to find it later. We are working through the points the inspectors raised and are willing to discuss the report with anyone considering us. If you are looking into care at home for yourself or a relative, please get in touch. We will be honest about what we can take on and what we cannot.
