Most families in Frome start small and change as things change — you are choosing how much help you would like, not a fixed package.
From a friendly call-in once a day to several visits, around Frome and villages like Beckington and Nunney.

Questions from Frome families
We can usually carry out the free assessment the same day you call, and have care in place within 48 hours. If it is more urgent than that, say so when you ring and we will tell you honestly what we can do.
Yes — Beckington, Nunney, Mells, Rode, Norton St Philip, Woolverton, Tellisford, Chantry, Great Elm and Feltham, and the lanes between them. There is no extra charge for any of them, and no travel or call-out fee.
Yes, and it is something we do often. Where it helps, we will come and assess on the ward so that care is arranged before discharge day rather than after it.
That is the whole reason we stay small. You will have a regular team who know the routine, rather than whoever the rota throws up — and you will meet them before they start. When one of them is on holiday or off sick, cover comes from that same small team, and we tell you who is coming.
"I cannot recommend Otter Home Care highly enough: we used them to provide care for my elderly dad. Their level of care was excellent, the carers were always on time and were very attentive."
