Types of home care we provide in Shepherd’s Bush
When you’re looking for the right type of home care for yourself or a loved one, we know how difficult it can be to try and decipher between the different options available. The Good Care Group is proud to offer both live-in care and hourly care to our clients in the Shepherd’s Bush area. Find out more about these two types of home care below.
Hourly care in Shepherd’s Bush
The Good Care Group offers hourly care services, providing consistent and regular support for individuals who require care from their home. This support offers a number of tasks. This involves assisting with household chores like cleaning, laundry, gardening and more personal aid such as toileting, showering and dressing. Our priority is to provide an exceptional level of care that enables you or your loved one to live a fulfilling life and to maintain that independence. Whether it is accompanying you around the stores in Westfield Shopping Centre or to cook you your favourite meal, we are here to help you to make the most of your days.
Our professional carers are available in Shepherd’s Bush to support you for as little as one-hour. As they are part of the community and are familiar with the local areas, they will be able to guide you to your local pharmacy to collect your medications, or will have an understanding of the best route to take when finding a nearby grocery store.
We understand the importance of keeping your independence, that is why we take a special approach when meeting your care needs without taking over. Your preferences and choices are a priority to us and is why we assist you with living your life on your own terms.
Live-in care in Shepherd’s Bush
For individuals living with more complex care needs, live-in care could be the more suitable option. This type of care involves a dedicated carer that will reside in your home, and will be able to provide assistance whenever necessary.
At The Good Care Group, we take great care in matching live-in carers with our clients, ensuring that they receive the best possible care. Our selection process involves considering a carer’s prior experience in handling specific health conditions, as well as their personality, preferences and interest. By considering this, it will give the confidence to you or your loved one that an exceptional level of care will be delivered, that addresses both physical and emotional needs.
By choosing our ‘Outstanding’ live-in care, this will allow you to remain in the comfort of your own home, whilst receiving round-the-clock care delivered by our carers. This means, you won’t have to worry about moving into residential care and can stay where you are surrounded by many memories. Whether you are dealing with complex conditions such as Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s or cancer, or if both you and your partner require assistance with mobility and personal care, live-in care could be for you.

We believe that there is nowhere better to be than in your own home, which is why we are dedicated to providing the very best home care across England and Scotland.

Jessica Monaghan
Hourly Regional Manager,
I’m Jessica, Hourly Care Manager for The Good Care Group. I first joined the company in 2019 as a Live-in Care Manager, which I did for two years before leaving to start up an hourly care service for a franchise provider in North London. I rejoined The Good Care Group in 2022 as the Hourly Care Manager.
As Hourly Care Manager, my role involves working alongside our client services team, assessing new clients, creating robust care plans and risk assessments of their needs and working alongside the scheduling team to find a suitable match of carer for each client to ensure that their care is set up to achieve the best outcomes. I may also need to work alongside our Occupational Therapist or Consultant Admiral Nurse when setting up more complex care placements. My role varies day to day, and a lot of what I do involves supporting my team of carers and my clients with whatever the day brings.
My career in health and social care started in 2010. Since then, I have worked in various roles including as a carer, care scheduler, care supervisor, care manager and registered care manager.
As part of my role, I need to complete regular calls to check in and stay up to date with my care team and clients. Every three months, my care team is called for supervision and clients have visits and monitoring calls to ensure that they are happy with the care being provided to them. Clients also have six-monthly or monthly reviews of their care. If there are incidents or accidents, I provide support to them to ensure the safety of everyone involved, ensuring to review risk assessments and care plans to prevent future occurrences. I also work with the training team and support carers with their career development. My role is to ensure that the care team feels supported and clients are happy with the care and support that they are receiving.
I hold a Level 5 in Health and Social Care and have supported individuals with a wide range of needs including dementia, palliative care, Parkinson’s, cancer, motor neurone disease, multiple sclerosis, learning disabilities, autism, mental health and neurological conditions.
Alongside my Level 5 Diploma in Health and Social Care Management, I also hold a Level 3 in Education and Training, BILD Assessors qualification and an Open University qualification in Autism Awareness. I am a first aid instructor, moving and handling instructor and medication trainer. I believe that training is a vital part of the care role and continual development ensures the individuals that we support get the quality care they need.
I have witnessed both obstacles and successes within the sector and seen first-hand what difference can be made whether big or small in someone's life. I believe that the journey I have taken from starting as a carer to becoming a manager has allowed me to understand what support needs to be provided not only to the individuals we support, but the amazing carers that are providing it. I understand the importance of ensuring the highest quality of care is delivered, and enjoy leading and encouraging my team to work towards the best possible outcomes. I am an experienced care manager and have managed both hourly and live-in care in a home care setting. I have been able to see the benefits of people receiving care in their own home and remaining at home.
I am very proud of the journey I have been on to get to where I am currently in my career. I feel proud of my development and that I have been able to witness everything I have along the way from a carer to a manager.
