Our Care Workers

Chamomile Care's standard for all our Care Workers is in a professional, knowledgeable, compassionate, and holistic approach to care. Our fully trained staff are hand-picked and carefully vetted to match you or your loved one, based on many factors such as personality and care experience. We always achieve our goal of helping our Service Users live their best life, on their own terms.

We take pride in our Care Workers' Atlas-certified CPD training, complemented by ongoing monthly and quarterly refreshers, to ensure top-quality care and value for you and/or your loved one.

Our Care Workers have a unique touch with:

Complete training & assessment

Every Chamomile Care Worker undergoes an extensive induction covering "The Care Certificate," manual handling, first aid, condition-led care, and safeguarding. This ensures each visit delivers the expert, heartfelt support that lifts a weight off you and your loved one's shoulders.

Consistent care

We build individualised care plans through detailed discussions and ongoing family communication. So every visit we give is familiar, dependable, and centred on the dignity of those we help.

Excellence with compassion

From our Oxford Living Wage status to our ISO 9001:2015 certification, every facet of Chamomile Care reflects our commitment to providing help that is not only high in standards but also refreshingly human.

Chamomile Care Recommended on homecare.co.uk

Not just a care company,
but a Company that cares

founder-Michael-Ackers-in-office-holding-two-diplomas

Chamomile Care was founded by Michael Ackers, who, driven by his dissatisfaction with the existing standards in the industry, sought to make a meaningful difference.

From...

  1. 13 years experience working in the industry
  2. 24 years as both a civil servant and consultant
  3. Level 3 and 5 Diplomas in Health and Social Care

Michael used his experience to shape the standards we uphold to this day.

After just 4 and a half busy years of providing CQC-regulated support, we recognise the importance of good humour, respect, compassion, and attentiveness when helping those we care for.

"As a Care Worker, it is an honour to be the first person that someone sees in the day. Even better if they wake up to your happy smiling face."
— Michael Ackers (founder)

Genuinely loving what we do, when we see that extra life breathed into the families we help, it makes us prouder than anything in the world :)

Pat Nsbet

Highly rate Chamomile care, excellent service from start to finish. The first time I have had to use a care agency, I found them friendly and professional, nothing was too much trouble. The care manager found me a lovely carer, we got on so well it was like having a family member care for me, I would recommend this company to my friends and loved one.

Barbara Phillips

Chamomile Care provided respite care for my very elderly father in his own home while his regular career was on holiday. My father is loosing his sight and has mobility issues that mean he needs personal care and help with day to day living. Throughout registration, assessment and care everybody at Chamomile Care were professional and very thorough. The care manager came to his home to complete the necessary paperwork. She explained everything very well ensuring that my father was always consulted. She returned nearer the time to shadow his carer and made careful notes to ensure that the transition would be as smooth as possible. His needs were met brilliantly and the engagement with him was excellent. He very much enjoyed the visits and I felt confident that not only was he safe but also that he was happy with the situation. I would have no hesitation in recommending Chamomile Care to others and will be sure to use them again as the necessity arises.
