Respite care in Cornwall

Choose expert-led respite care in Cornwall with The Good Care Group. Supported by experienced local teams across England and Scotland, we help families access dependable, high-quality care in the comfort of home.

Providing exceptional respite care services since 2009

The Good Care Group is proud to be rated ‘Outstanding’ by the Care Quality Commission (CQC), reflecting the exceptional standard of care we have provided to families for more than 15 years. This includes specialist live-in care in Cornwall, delivered in the familiar surroundings of home.

Finding the right carer is central to our approach. We take time to understand your loved one’s personality and daily routine before matching them with an experienced respite carer who can provide support without taking away their independence. That might mean accompanying them on a favourite coastal walk, heading into their local town, or simply making sure their usual day can continue comfortably at home.

For those with more complex needs, our highly trained carers are also on hand to support conditions such as dementia, stroke recovery and Parkinson’s.

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.
