Home care in Scotland

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.

Providing exceptional home care services since 2009

The Good Care Group has been providing home care across England and Scotland for more than 10 years. Following a recent inspection, we’re incredibly pleased that the care we offer has been recognised as “Very Good” by the Care Inspectorate (CI) for the quality of our care and support.

Whether you need support in your home with respite care or require regular care throughout the week, our fully qualified carers are here to help you continue living on your own terms. If you fancy a coffee at your favourite local café or want to relax for the afternoon in your favourite green space, our carers can help you stay in the place you know and love, even if your needs are more complex.

Types of home care we provide in Scotland

When you’re looking for the right type of home care for yourself or a loved one, we know how difficult it can be to try and decipher between the different options available. Find out more about our types of home care below.

Live-in care in Scotland

If you or a family member has complex health needs, such as cancer or dementia, our live-in care option might be an ideal solution. As the name suggests, we can arrange for one of our carers to live with you in your home, ensuring that care is available 24 hours a day. Choosing live in care in Scotland means you can stay in an environment you love and know well, rather than having the stress of moving somewhere unfamiliar. We can accommodate all of your needs, even if these are complex or you have a medical condition that requires specialist care.

Mental health care in Scotland

For those living with a mental health condition, such as depression or anxiety, feeling safe is vital for effective symptom management. And for many of us, nowhere feels as secure as home. That’s why we provide one-to-one mental health support in Scotland, designed to support your independence and dignity. Led by our in-house Clinical Lead, Sabah Shah, we ensure you receive specialist support in the comfort of home.

Available services in Scotland

Meet our local Scotland team

We operate throughout with a local approach to management of our teams near you. Each dedicated care manager local to you has only a small number of clients to support. This means they can provide higher levels of monitoring and support than other home care providers. It also means a highly personalised approach to care can be delivered.

Anne-Marie Gill

Registered Manager, Scotland

"I’m Anne-Marie, the Registered Manager for Scotland here at The Good Care Group. With over 30 years’ experience in the care sector, I’ve worked in a range of domiciliary care roles.

Why choose The Good Care Group?

The Good Care Group is one of the only live-in care providers awarded with an ‘Excellent’ rating by the CI, and we’re exceptionally proud to be keeping as many people as possible living in their own homes whilst receiving remarkable care. We believe there isn’t anywhere better than the comfort of your own home, which is why we’re dedicated to providing the very best home care in Scotland.

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.

Better than a care agency in Scotland

Unlike care agencies in Scotland, 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.

Compassionate and fully-trained carers in Scotland

Our carers in Scotland meet with their manager on a regular basis and have access to assistance 24 hours a day. We have a stringent and rigorous recruitment process; only 2% of our applicants successfully pass and join our team as fully qualified carers. This helps ensure the care you receive is delivered by only the very best carers in Scotland.

Supporting both our clients and carers is extremely important to us. All of our carers in Scotland have regular catch-ups with their dedicated care manager, with assistance on hand 24 hours a day should either of you require it.
