The Good Care Group is proud to offer both live-in care and hourly care to our clients in the Enfield area. Find out more about these two types of home care below.

Hourly care in Enfield

Whether you need help with household tasks or personal care at home, our services are available to help ensure that you can continue living life on your own terms. When choosing our care package, our dedicated carers can accompany you on visiting the local areas near you, or assist with any household duties. Whatever the requirement, our cares will be there to support.

We take extra care to hire carers based within the Enfield area, so that they will be locally available to you and be able to pop in and assist you with errands such as shopping for essentials and picking up medication. As they will be part of your local community, they will be very familiar with nearby shops, local attractions and other places of interest.

The flexibility we offer and our care plans being tailored exactly to your needs is why there is nowhere better than The Good Care Group. As your needs evolve the care package can be adjusted at any time to suit your preferences.

Live-in care in Enfield

Live-in care presents a practical alternative to care homes for individuals who have long-term care requirements for complex needs such as dementia, stroke, and multiple sclerosis. Leaving your home with all your personal possessions, pets and family can be daunting regardless of age. By opting for live-in care, personalised one-to-one support from our team of professional carers can be received within the comfort of your own home without the stress of having to relocate to a care facility.

There are many benefits for live-in care. We will match you with a fully qualified carer based in Enfield who will be readily available to move into your home and provide round-the-clock quality care. Our carers will take the time to understand your needs and preferences and be there to help with various daily activities, whether it is discreet personal care, managing medications or providing companionship.

If you or your loved one is faced with a complex or life-limiting condition we have specialised services available with our own Occupational Therapist that can help assess the safety of your home, and a Consultant Admiral Nurse that work closely together to share expertise and clinical skills to ensure specialist care is provided. All this combined will improve overall health outcomes and quality of life for all our clients.

Jessica Monaghan

Hourly Care Manager,

I’m Jessica, Hourly Care Manager for The Good Care Group. I first joined the company in 2019 as a Live-in Care Manager, which I did for two years before leaving to start up an hourly care service for a franchise provider in North London. I rejoined The Good Care Group in 2022 as the Hourly Care Manager.

As Hourly Care Manager, my role involves working alongside our client services team, assessing new clients, creating robust care plans and risk assessments of their needs and working alongside the scheduling team to find a suitable match of carer for each client to ensure that their care is set up to achieve the best outcomes. I may also need to work alongside our Occupational Therapist or Consultant Admiral Nurse when setting up more complex care placements. My role varies day to day, and a lot of what I do involves supporting my team of carers and my clients with whatever the day brings.

My career in health and social care started in 2010. Since then, I have worked in various roles including as a carer, care scheduler, care supervisor, care manager and registered care manager.

As part of my role, I need to complete regular calls to check in and stay up to date with my care team and clients. Every three months, my care team is called for supervision and clients have visits and monitoring calls to ensure that they are happy with the care being provided to them. Clients also have six-monthly or monthly reviews of their care. If there are incidents or accidents, I provide support to them to ensure the safety of everyone involved, ensuring to review risk assessments and care plans to prevent future occurrences. I also work with the training team and support carers with their career development. My role is to ensure that the care team feels supported and clients are happy with the care and support that they are receiving.

I hold a Level 5 in Health and Social Care and have supported individuals with a wide range of needs including dementia, palliative care, Parkinson’s, cancer, motor neurone disease, multiple sclerosis, learning disabilities, autism, mental health and neurological conditions.

Alongside my Level 5 Diploma in Health and Social Care Management, I also hold a Level 3 in Education and Training, BILD Assessors qualification and an Open University qualification in Autism Awareness. I am a first aid instructor, moving and handling instructor and medication trainer. I believe that training is a vital part of the care role and continual development ensures the individuals that we support get the quality care they need.

I have witnessed both obstacles and successes within the sector and seen first-hand what difference can be made whether big or small in someone's life. I believe that the journey I have taken from starting as a carer to becoming a manager has allowed me to understand what support needs to be provided not only to the individuals we support, but the amazing carers that are providing it. I understand the importance of ensuring the highest quality of care is delivered, and enjoy leading and encouraging my team to work towards the best possible outcomes. I am an experienced care manager and have managed both hourly and live-in care in a home care setting. I have been able to see the benefits of people receiving care in their own home and remaining at home.

I am very proud of the journey I have been on to get to where I am currently in my career. I feel proud of my development and that I have been able to witness everything I have along the way from a carer to a manager.

Unlike care agencies based in Enfield, we recruit, hire and train our own carers to ensure that outstanding care is consistently provided to all of our clients. By choosing a fully-managed service provider, you can avoid the hassles of becoming your own employer and having to find and vet your own carer.

At The Good Care Group, we ensure that our carers are selected from the local area so that they can provide you with companionship care wherever necessary, visit the local attractions near to Enfield and share experiences.

Specialist dementia care in Enfield

We understand that receiving the news that you or your loved one has dementia can be overwhelming, as you are faced with many decisions involving care. Many families believe that moving into a care home is the only option available.

Receiving dementia care from the comfort of your own home is proven to have far more benefits on improving quality of life for a person living with dementia. Our professional carers are driven to keep you or your loved ones safe and are provided with specialist training to have an understanding of all the best practice techniques when providing care.

Domiciliary care for additional support

Domiciliary care or home care is available for people living in their own homes who require that extra support with day-to-day life. Our professional carers can offer help in housekeeping such as cleaning and cooking, or even assist you with getting dressed in the morning and washing your hair. If you are being taken care of by a family member, domiciliary care could be a great alternative to give them a much-needed break.

Our carers based in Enfield can be arranged to visit you once, twice or three or more times a day from 60 minutes depending on your needs. This could be to accompany you in medical appointments and running errands such as picking up groceries.

Respite care for a short-term solution

Short-term care, commonly known as respite care is a short and flexible arrangement that can be organised to support a loved one caring for a family member or friend that has sustained an injury due to a fall, or has recently been discharged from hospital. Our carers will be fully trained to look after people with a number of conditions including dementia, Parkinson’s, multiple sclerosis and stroke care.

After one year, we present the opportunity of refresher training to our carers to keep their skills and knowledge up-to-date. We also have a specialist care team on hand, which includes a Consultant Admiral Nurse and an Occupational Therapist who deliver complex training to the carers to ensure that all your needs are met.
