About
E Care Wickford is a home care agency that provides care and support in people's own homes, with its office in Wickford, Essex. It describes its care as personalised and flexible, with visits ranging from 30 minutes to 24-hour care, and says it covers Clacton, Colchester and Tendring. Dementia is its stated care focus, and it supports older people, younger adults, people with physical disabilities, mental health needs, sensory impairment and learning disabilities.
The agency says travelling time is not deducted from visit length, and carers log in and out of each call on a digital rostering system so visit times can be monitored. Requests to change visit times or days are accommodated where possible. The Care Quality Commission rated E Care Wickford Good overall in a report published in 2022, with Good ratings across all five key questions.
