Carewatch North Lancashire & Cumbria provides care and support to people in their own homes or in nursing and residential homes, either directly or on behalf of the Local Authority.

Whether you are looking for someone to provide care for you or a member of your family, why not ask us about the flexible care and support that we can offer.

Providing you with a quality home care service is our priority. Carewatch Care Services only employs care staff who are capable, honest and friendly. Before a care worker provides you with care in your home, rigorous checks are made on their qualifications and past experience. If these are satisfactory, we instruct Care Workers to attend a 3-day care worker induction training course and thereafter, we provide them with regular training updates. To give you complete reassurance, Carewatch Care Services has implemented specific quality standards covering wider issues such as supervision of Care Workers, keeping records of the care you receive and communication.
