Office Monday to Friday, 09:00–16:00 · 24 hour helpline for emergencies
The shape of a day
Most people start with one call a day. Some build up from there.
There is no fixed package. This is simply how a day tends to be put together — pick the calls that fit, leave the ones that do not.
Morning
The getting-up call
Personal care, dressing, medication and breakfast — the call most packages start with.
Midday
Lunch and a check-in
A meal prepared, or a short check call if that is all that is needed.
Afternoon
Company, shopping, appointments
A leisure call, a day out, or a sit-in so family can have a few hours back.
Evening
The bed call
Settling for the night, medication and making sure the house is secure.
Overnight
24 hour helpline
The office runs Monday to Friday, 09:00–16:00 — but the emergency helpline runs around the clock.
Our services
Four services. Combine them however suits.
A Rated Homecare are passionate about ensuring that we provide the best possible care and with our handpicked carers we ensure that we will exceed all expectations of homecare. We are proud to promote people before profit and want to ensure that homecare is affordable to all.
Companionship
Days out, shopping, leisure calls and a sit-in service — for as long as is requested.
What companionship covers
Check calls
Not everyone needs full-time care. Sometimes it is enough to know someone will call in.
How check calls work
Domestic
A dedicated domestic service for the household jobs a care visit does not have time for.

In their words
“The same carer comes every morning and Mum knows her name. That is the bit I did not expect to matter as much as it does.”
We have not put words in anyone's mouth. Reviews from families, and a CQC rating once one is published, are the two strongest trust signals a homecare site can carry — both belong here.
