Clarendon Home Care

About us

What we do... our core service principles

At Clarendon Home Care we believe that professional home care should be based upon:

• Working in close partnership with the individual and their family to meet their needs and promote all round quality of life
• Fully respecting service users and their rights to privacy, confidentiality and dignity while meeting their individual needs and preferences
• Personal support to service users to help retain control of their lives and maintain their independence and dignity
• Continual and professional re-assessment of service users’ needs and risks in the home

How we deliver... our approach to home care

OUR PROFESSIONAL PROCESSES

We have invested in the introduction and implementation of national quality care standards, management controls, service level monitoring and skills training to deliver top quality service.

The cornerstone of our approach is the care plan which is the key document to manage the care programme. We carry out a professional needs assessment review at the outset along with a home risk analysis. This is used to write the service support proposal and care plan. This is continually re-assessed and formally reviewed. We believe the care plan works best when it involves all relevant family members.

OUR PROFESSIONAL PEOPLE

Our people are our success! - We aim to attract the best carers.

We have developed innovative methods of recruitment and selection to find the right people. Our reputation attracts good carers and our training and pastoral support attracts newcomers to the care sector. Our service users tell us we have some of the very best carers.

A recent survey confirmed to us:

"Clarendon Home Care offers the best carers I have used"

"My Clarendon carer provided great support to both me and my family"
