Carers employed by our Walsall team, supporting people at home in Bloxwich. Visits, respite and live-in care, arranged around the day you already have.
Bloxwich is the town at the north end of Walsall, with its own high street, Bloxwich Park, All Saints Church and a station on the Chase Line. Most of the neighbourhood is in the WS3 postcode district. Families usually call when a parent wants to stay in the house they know, whether that is a semi off the High Street, a bungalow towards Leamore or Mossley, or a flat nearer the centre. The reason is rarely dramatic. Washing and dressing take longer, meals are being missed, or someone is due home from Walsall Manor Hospital and the family wants a plan before the discharge date rather than a rushed decision about a care home.
Care in Bloxwich is managed by the Walsall team at Hatherton Court. The carers are employed by Caring Care, not sent in by an agency, and rounds are planned so a small group of people can keep visiting the same homes. That matters on streets where neighbours notice who comes to the door, and it matters more when new faces are unsettling. Call times are agreed around the household, including an early visit for someone who needs help to get up and a later one for anyone who is safer with company at the end of the day. If a visit is going to be late, the office tells the family rather than leaving them to wonder.
Bloxwich sits between Willenhall, Pelsall and Birchills, and plenty of the families we meet have relatives in more than one of those places. If a parent moves a short distance, or a son or daughter in Willenhall is the person who phones, the same office keeps the care. We work alongside the local GP practices and the discharge plans that come out of Manor Hospital. We do not provide nursing care. What we do provide is personal care, companionship, a break for a family carer, and live-in support when visits are no longer enough to keep someone safe at home. If you are comparing agencies, ask who employs the carer and who you ring when a visit runs late. For Bloxwich both answers are Caring Care's Walsall team, on 0330 056 3111.
Most enquiries from Bloxwich start with personal care or companionship. Live-in care is there when a parent needs someone in the house through the night as well as the day.
