Visiting Homecare Service
Our visiting care service provides regular care and support for older adults living in and around Duxford. Conveniently based just down the road in Little Chesterfield, our administration centre is at the heart of the area we serve. Being local enables us to provide our clients with a reliable and responsive care service which is genuinely community-based.
Our daily visiting care service is designed for adults who require regular help or support in their own home. The aim of the service is to provide people with whatever level of assistance they might need to continue living safely and independently at home.
Live-in care Service
For family members considering care options for an elderly loved one, live-in care has one big advantage: your loved one can receive all the care and support they need without having to move out of their home.
Live-in care involves a compassionate and highly professional carer coming to stay with your loved one and providing them with whatever level of support they might need.
As well as providing continuity of care, their carer will allay any feelings of loneliness through light and cheerful daily companionship.
This rare combination of care, companionship and housekeeping – unique in every case – will enable them to continue living safely and independently in the comfort and privacy of their own home.

Why is local best?
Why Local is the Way to Go: At Chesterford Homecare, our local roots come with many advantages:
Locally based carer means greater reliability and shorter travel times
Because they are local, our carers arrive punctually for their calls and stay for the full time allotted. This makes our care service cost-effective as well as reliable.
Local management
The members of our management team are all based at our offices in Little Chesterford. This means that we can visit you at home regularly to monitor the care you are receiving and discuss any possible changes in your care needs.
Good relationships with associated care professionals
Because we are local, we have been able to develop excellent working relationships with other care professionals, for example, District Nurses, Physiotherapists and Occupational Therapists. This means it is never a problem for us to organise additional support for you, should you ever need it.
Where to begin?
We do our best to try and keep the process as simple as 123, because we understand how hard it can be to know what to do next, especially when you’ve realised that professional help is needed, but aren’t really sure what sort of support would be best or where to find it.
