We believe that ageing should be the the best part of your life. Your loved ones deserve the best care. To find a perfect match for you or your loved ones needs, each Nurse Next Door caregiver is carefully screened, interviewed, and selected, we look for people who have a real passion for making a difference.

 

From daily grocery shopping, meal preparation, and walks in the park to medication reminders and companionship, our caregivers make it possible for seniors to live in their own home. It’s about caring, not just healthcare™.

If for some reason your caregiver is unavailable, we’ll quickly find another good match. If you need to change the schedule or suddenly require immediate care, our Care Team is available 6am-10pm to take your call.

Karen Patel

Manager

Karen has worked in the healthcare industry for over 30 years, her direct involvement of working with and caring for customers both as a qualified Ophthalmic Optician and as a qualified Audiologist has enabled her to understand the importance of customer care including the care of the whole family. Being the owner of four very successful Specsavers businesses allowed the development of the best possible service by progressing great teams and a company culture, affording many customer service awards, whilst supporting others to succeed and develop into the best versions of themselves. Karen co-founded a family run Home Care business in 2014 with her husband, and with the help of an amazing team the business has been successfully grown to the point they have now rebranded in 2023 to Nurse Next Door and have introduced Happier Ageing and Making Lives Better which fully co-insides with the existing core values of the company. When not working Karen has fun helping to bring up her four children which she states are her absolute rock.

Nurse Next Door provided housekeeping support to my mother, keeping her house clean and helping with laundry, etc. They were very flexible in adding extra sessions when she needed more support, and the carers were always cheerful and willing. Towards the end of her life, they were able to change her care overnight from four visits per week to three visits per day with two carers experienced in personal care. It was this ability to change so quickly that enabled us to keep my mother at home, where she wanted to be, until the end, and we are very grateful for this.

At Christmas 2024, my Dad was in A&E suffering from dehydration. It became clear at that point that he needed home care and we engaged Nurse Next Door in early 2025. A bespoke, flexible care package was applied and the benefit to Dad was immediately obvious. He was able to watch his favourite football team win a play off match at Wembley in May. This would not have been possible without Nurse Next Door's contribution to his wellbeing. Dad's care plan is reviewed regularly, his carers are conscientious and committed. Office staff are organised and readily available when needed. Simply put, Dad would not be able to live independently without the support of Nurse Next Door, to the obvious benefit for him and the wider family

Excellent service! Our patient lives alone and needed someone to escort her home and stay with her for a couple of hours. The care provided was outstanding from start to finish. I will definitely make Nurse Next Door my first point of contact in the future. Our patient was delighted with the exceptional care and would be happy to use their services again.

Nurse next door have been taking care of my elderly aunt for several months, they have always been reliable and very professional and have treated my aunt with kindness and understanding. Will definitely continue to use them if service remains as good as it has been.
