Offering A Totally Caring Service
Beechtree adopted the ‘Total Care’ name to illustrate the company ethos of supporting not only the individual but all those who come into contact with the organisation. That includes staff, family and friends of the care user and those in the wider community with an interest in social care.
One size does not fit all when it comes to a person’s individual care needs. Each client is assessed and a support plan devised that’s tailored specifically to deliver the support that person requires. Care co-ordinators regularly review clients’ needs and circumstances on a regular basis.
Most people take personal care and the upkeep of the home for granted until it becomes a struggle to maintain standards.

- Domestic support - including help with cleaning, washing up, laundry
