About

Agincare UK Dorchester is a home care agency that provides care and support in people's own homes, run from its office in Dorchester, Dorset. It supports people living with dementia, as well as older people, younger adults under 65, people with physical disabilities and people with sensory impairments.

The agency offers fully managed and flexible care arrangements across the country, including live-in care. Each arrangement starts with a person-centred care plan and risk assessment, and a dedicated care manager and care supervisor oversee the support. A 24-hour on-call emergency line is also available. Agincare employs and pays its own care workers, so it is responsible for their training, supervision and support, and for finding a replacement if a care worker falls ill.
