Our CareGivers in Ashford
For our CareGivers, homecare isn’t just a job—it’s a true vocation. Many of them have cared for family members themselves, so they understand the worries you might have. We choose our team carefully, focusing on qualities like empathy, patience, and a genuine love for helping people.
- Dedicated Professionals: Continuous training keeps our CareGivers confident and equipped, whether it’s supporting someone with early-stage dementia or providing live-in assistance. We make sure our CareGivers are well-prepared to ensure you receive top-quality care.
- Real Connections: We match Clients and CareGivers based on personality, interests, and life experience. That way, shared hobbies—like a fondness for art or an interest in local history—can spark real friendships during visits.
- Companionship for Emotional Wellbeing: Older adults often find loneliness can creep in over time. A friendly face popping by for a chat, a short walk, or a drive around the local area can lift spirits immeasurably. Our CareGivers see these moments of connection as more than just part of the job—they’re the heart of what we do.
Anthony S | Son of Client"My elderly mother receives two hourly visits daily Monday-Friday. These help her immensely to prepare for the day ahead and later in the evening before retiring. The staff attending are very supportive, conscientious, and friendly; they carry out a range of tasks that my mother can no longer. They are reliable and helpful, and their company is much appreciated. A dedicated and caring service. Many thanks!"
