High-quality home care in Waltham Abbey

We offer high-quality live-in, visiting and respite care for whenever you need us. With over 150 branches across the UK and over 35 years of experience, it’s safe to say we’re well experienced in providing healthcare support. We’re high quality because of our range of specialised approaches to care and our adaptability. We can offer condition-led care to support anything from dementia, cancer, strokes, Parkinson’s and Downe’s syndrome, among much more. Our visiting care starts from just 30 minutes a week to up to 5 weeks, and our respite care is designed if you need short-term, temporary care at your home.

24/7 live-in care support

Our live-in care might be for you if you need full-time support, 24/7. Our carers are experts at helping you out with any tasks you may need an extra hand with like housekeeping, cleaning, preparing healthy meals, and running errands. We can even help with grocery shopping and help walk your dog around Waltham Abbey if needed. While our carers are superb at the day-to-day things, they’re also expertly qualified to handle more medically complex care. Our nursing care can offer support with catheter and stoma care, ventilation care, and NIPPY and PEG feeding, amongst others. They are trained by NHS nurses in the best practices for care and can look after you just as a care home would.

We handpick our carers to match your personality and interests, so you don’t just have a carer living in your home, but a trusted friend and companion. We’re always hearing how our carers and customers are getting on like a house on fire, and we hope you’ll soon be showing off the 15th-century ‘Welsh Harp Inn’ with them before you know it. Our carers can also help you with personal care like bathing, dressing, grooming and toileting. We can help create a daily routine for you that can include exercises to help with mobility and help get you out and about in the Waltham Abbey community. We even offer emergency care and can be at your door within 24 hours!
