Visiting Homecare Service
Our visiting care service offers daily care and support for people over the age of 65 living in and around Duxford. Our administration centre, conveniently situated in nearby Little Chesterford,, serves as the hub for our coverage area. Our close proximity to our clients allows us to deliver a dependable and swiftly responsive care service that is deeply rooted in the community.
Our daily in-home care service is tailored for individuals in need of regular assistance in their own home. The primary goal of our service is to provide older people who need it with the necessary level of support to allow them to maintain a secure and self-sufficient lifestyle within the comfort and privacy of their own home.
Live-in care Service
If you’re looking for an alternative to residential care for someone close to you, then 24-hour live-in care could be the answer you’re looking for.
Live-in care is unique in that it will provide your loved one with the full-time support of their very own carer, who will provide them with whatever level of personal care they might need, including helping them manage their medication.
In addition, live-in care offers one other very important advantage over other types of care: having a kind and attentive carer on hand means your loved one will enjoy cheerful and morale-boosting companionship seven days a week.
It is this happy marriage of daily companionship with housekeeping and personal care and support that makes 24-hour live in care the preferred option for increasing numbers of older people needing care who are determined to stay in 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.
