Care South at Home Recognised Among Top Home Care Providers

The team at residential and care-at-home provider, Care South, are celebrating after being rated as a top home care provider.

Care South at Home has been named as one of the Top 20 Small Home Care Groups at this year’s Home Care Awards in recognition of the high-quality care provided to home care clients across Dorset and Somerset.

The award is based on reviews shared by Care South at Home clients, their relatives and loved ones through homecare.co.uk, a leading industry website. The service has achieved an impressive average group rating of 9.9/10, reflecting the positive impact of its dedicated care teams. Both offices are also rated ‘Good’ by CQC, the independent regulator of health and social care in England.

To celebrate the special recognition, the Care at Home team welcomed clients and their families along to two afternoon tea parties, held in the spirit of Care South’s ethos of Food, Fun and Friendship. One event took place outside in the sunshine at Beauchamp Gardens in Taunton, which is Care South’s assisted living community in the wider grounds of Beauchamp House care home in Hatch Beauchamp. The second event took place at St Ives House in Ringwood, which is next to another Care South assisted living community, St Ives Place.

Reviews for Care at Home on homecare.co.uk include: “Our experience has been excellent. The carers have been polite, competent and have always dealt with my husband with dignity and professionalism. They arrive in the evening at an appropriate time for my husband to go to bed and settle him comfortably for a good night’s sleep. Communication has been good without any issues.”

Martin Ross, Director of Care at Home, said: “We are delighted to be recognised as one of the top home care providers in the southwest. This award is particularly meaningful because it reflects the experiences and feedback of clients and their families. Every day, our dedicated teams visit our clients across Dorset and Somerset to provide personalised care and support that enables them to continue living independently. We would like to thank everyone who took the time to share their experiences, as well as our fantastic colleagues for their commitment, compassion and the dedicated care they provide to clients.”
