Home Care Manchester
The Good Care Group operates across England and Scotland through closely knit local teams. Small client portfolios enable each dedicated Care Manager and their team to offer a tailored, 1-2-1 approach.
The Good Care Group has been providing quality home care in Manchester and across England and Scotland for the past 10 years. With our most recent Care Quality Commission (CQC) rating rating being ‘Outstanding’ and a team of experts on hand to support our highly-skilled carers, we believe you’ll find no one better in Manchester to provide you with support in your own home. From regular visits throughout the week with our hourly care service, through to 24-hour support from our live-in care team, we will work with you to create a bespoke care plan that encompasses all of your requirements.

Why choose home care from The Good Care Group?
We believe that there is nowhere better to be than in your own home, which is why we are dedicated to providing the very best home care across England and Scotland. As the only live-in care provider to be awarded with an ‘Outstanding’ rating by the CQC, we are incredibly proud to be keeping as many people as possible living in their own home with our exceptional care.
In-house carer training
All of our carers complete a training programme developed by in-house clinicians before being assigned to a placement. Plus, they’ll receive additional enhanced training for complex care needs.
Fully managed service
We are not a care agency. We directly employ, train, and supervise all of our carers. That means you’ll receive consistent, reliable support, from carers we know and trust.
Dementia care experts
Our in-house experts, including Clinical Lead Sabah Shah and Dementia Champion Nichola Proctor, support our care teams to deliver compassionate dementia care at every stage of the condition.
Award-winning care
We’ve won more awards than any other home care provider for our service, training and culture. Including a Home Care Award, and a National Dementia Care Award.
Our home care services in Manchester
Better than a care agency in Manchester
The Good Care Group is a fully-managed home care provider, which means we adhere to the stringent guidelines set by the Care Quality Commission and are regularly inspected. Unlike care agencies in Manchester, we directly employ and train all of our carers ourselves, which means we are able to cover your regular carer on the rare occasion they should be absent, and provide them all with high-quality training. We are also able to take care of their paperwork, Disclosure Barring Service (DBS) checks and provide them with company benefits – something which they would have to do themselves if they were self-employed by a care agency.
Private care in Manchester
Choosing private care in Manchester from The Good Care Group means that you can create your future around your wants and needs, instead of having choices prescribed to you. Your care plan will be crafted carefully around your preferences, including any medical or health requirements, but also your social requirements and wellbeing, too. Taking a holistic approach to clients’ care plans is something that we pride ourselves on.
Our professional and friendly carers are trained to deliver person-centred care in a discreet manner, and essentially deliver support in a way that is meaningful to you. So, whether that’s helping you to get up and dressed in the morning or assisting you to attend a weekly club with friends, we’ll be there in whatever way you need.
Specialist dementia care in Manchester
Over 900,000 people are currently living with dementia, but not one of those diagnoses present in exactly the same way for each person. Here at The Good Care Group, we understand the nuances between dementia in each individual. That’s why our care plans are completely tailored to the individual and promote and nurture independence.
Receiving dementia care at home is a viable, often more suitable, alternative to moving into a care home, as it allows you or your loved one to get a personalised care plan that takes into account all of your symptoms, medical requirements and personal preferences whilst reducing the stress that would come with leaving the comforts and familiarity of your own home. Whether you or a loved one have just been diagnosed with vascular dementia and are coming to terms with what this will mean for all of you, or if your loved one has advanced Alzheimer’s and needs daily assistance with personal care, our Manchester team can provide you with the reassurance that you and your loved ones need to continue living in your own home.
Domiciliary care in Manchester
Domiciliary care, often the traditional term used to describe care at home, is an ideal way to continue living life on your terms with additional help from a care team. Our professional domiciliary carers can help with a variety of tasks in and around your home – keeping on top of the housework, assisting you to prepare your favourite meals and helping you look after your pet companions, to helping you wash your hair, getting dressed and giving you gentle reminders to take medication.
Our carers in Manchester can also assist with running errands, taking you to the local supermarket and accompanying you to appointments, giving you and your loved ones the added reassurance that you’ll always have the right type of support for you.
Short-term respite care in Manchester
The need for care can arise at any given time – perhaps after a hospital admission and you need extra support at home during your recovery, or if you care for a loved one and need to take an unexpected leave of absence. With respite care from our experienced team in Manchester, we can step in and provide high-quality care on a short-term basis so that you’re not left without vital assistance when you need it most.
Respite care in Manchester can be delivered in a way that suits you and your care requirements via either hourly care or live-in care on a pre-planned basis. That way, if you’re a caregiver for a loved one, our professional carers can fill in for you while you take a few hours off each week and recharge your batteries or even for several weeks if you decide to take a longer break from your care duties.
Compassionate and fully-trained carers in Manchester
The Good Care Group’s ‘Outstanding’ CQC rating has been awarded, in part, for our excellent training programme that is delivered to all of our carers. With only 2% of those that apply being successful in becoming a fully-fledged carer, you can have confidence that the care you’re receiving is being delivered by the very best carers.
During their five-day induction training delivered by our experienced in-house training team, our carers are trained in a number of modules including first aid, medical conditions such as dementia, end-of-life care, manual handling and inclusion and diversity. Refresher training sessions are held annually, with complex care training delivered by our specialist service team consisting of our Consultant Admiral Nurse and Occupational Therapist.
Supporting both our clients and carers is extremely important to us. All of our carers in Manchester have regular catch-ups with their dedicated care manager, with assistance on hand 24 hours a day should either of you require it.
