Doris Jones - Care as it should be

Doris Jones - Care as it should be Doris Jones provides CQC "Outstanding" -rated Home Care services to the frail and elderly.

A UNIQUE COMBINATION OF CARE & REHABILITATION
With a background in physiotherapy as well as social care and home support, our team is uniquely equipped to offer enhanced care. In addition to traditional personal care and home help services, we will look for opportunities to maintain or increase the mobility, independence and emotional wellbeing of the people we care for. For our clients, this means increased independence and self-confidence, as well as the ability to live safely and comfortably in their own homes. COMMITMENT TO QUALITY STAFF TRAINING
Our own experience of home care provision in the past has shown the quality of staff training to be highly inconsistent. Indeed, we established Doris Jones in part because we saw the need for greater quality, reliability and consistency in care provision. To that end, we invest significantly in the induction, ongoing training and continual observation of all our care assistants. To our clients and their families, this approach offers assurance of our total commitment to quality care. GOOD OLD-FASHIONED VALUES
Everything we do is guided by a clear set of values: Punctuality, Courtesy, Discretion and Discipline. Our entire team understands that delivering anything less than these fundamental values is simply not acceptable. For the people we care for, this means being treated with respect and dignity. It means a consistent and dependable service in which they and their families can place their trust.

Happy Friday!

The warm weather has got us reminiscing about our recent summer garden party, hosted by our neighbors at St. Martins Care Home in Westcliff-on-Sea, in their gorgeous garden 🌷

We had some incredible students perform for our clients, from The Beatles to ABBA!

Scones, tea, coffee, sunshine, and good company - what more could you want from an afternoon in Southend? ☀️

Next up - the Doris Jones' 15-year celebration 🎉.
