Live in care you can trust in the home that you love

We have been providing care services throughout Bicester for over 50 years. Our reputation is built on high standards of live in care in Asthall, local expertise and an approach to care delivery that is trusted by families throughout our community and beyond. All our carers are experienced and most have worked for us for many years. They will live with you for a longer period than might be offered by other live in care providers, which allows for a deeper understanding of our clients’ needs and ensures continuity of care. We are experts in providing specialist care of complex conditions, like dementia, Parkinson’s or Multiple Sclerosis (MS) or for those recovering from a stroke or for those who need cancer care or palliative care.

CARE MANAGEMENT IN Bicester

A fully managed and regulated live in care service

We offer fully managed live in care services in Bicester, which means that we employ our carers while caring for you. This is different to introductory agencies, who simply introduce you to a suitable live in carer and then leave the management of them to you or your loved one. One of the advantages of our fully managed live in care services is that we provide you with a local management team of care experts who can provide additional support and reassurance to you and your assigned carer. Plus, we are regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) and have been rated ‘Good’ by CQC in all five measures – safe, caring, effective, responsive and well-led.
