About us
Didcot Home Care Ltd is registered and authorised by the Care Quality Commission. We are based in Didcot Oxfordshire and cover towns and villages within a ten-mile radius of our base.
As a registered domiciliary care company, we provide personal care visits to our client’s homes. We can do any number of visits or hours from 30 minutes a week to live in care.
Many people need assistance with daily tasks like shopping, dog walking or just getting out and about. We can help. It may be that assistance is needed with dressing, washing, or toileting. We can do that to! We will work with family as well as other professionals if you want us to. It is our hope that once we are engaged our client’s lives become easier and less stressful.
Our aim is to provide high quality client centred care to the elderly within our area. We have an ethos of putting the client and their family at the heart of everything we do.
We will provide every client with a personal care plan and keep it updated as needs change. Every client will have the personal number of both the director and the care manager. We encourage comment and feedback.
The founders are Peter and Holly Gotch (father and daughter). Peter has had careers in policing as well as in the law as a practicing criminal Barrister. Holly has come up through the NHS apprenticeship programme. She has wide experience both in hospitals and the community having worked with both mental and physical health departments. Both Peter and Holly are keen for a new adventure and want to give something back to the community.
Our care manager is Victoria Macdonald. Who has long experience is the care industry and before that in hospitality. She will be in charge of care planning and day to day supervision of staff.
For any more information please get in touch. We would love to chat.
