Care That Comes From Understanding What Families Really Need. When Jane Carolan’s father needed homecare in 2024, she experienced firsthand how difficult it can be to find a provider who truly cares. Despite her 25 years of experience as a Director of Operations in Health and Social Care, she struggled to find local services that were interested, compassionate, and willing to offer practical advice during one of her family’s most challenging times.
When she finally found the right carer, everything changed. Her father was able to stay at home with dignity. Her mother got the respite she desperately needed. The family got precious time together. That experience inspired Jane to create something better. In November 2024, GoodOaks Homecare Mid Cheshire was born—a care service built on the simple belief that every family deserves the kind of compassionate, reliable support Jane’s family finally found.

What Makes Us Different
Free Virtual GP Access for All Clients
Through our partnership with Doctor Care Anywhere, every client receives complimentary access to:
- 24/7 appointments with GPs, Advanced Care Practitioners, Physiotherapists, and Mental Health Practitioners
- Video or phone consultations within 2 hours
- Quick prescriptions and referrals
- Four free appointments annually
For families worried about lengthy GP waiting times, this service provides invaluable peace of mind and rapid access to healthcare when needed.
Advanced Health Monitoring
We use Whizan health monitoring technology to check vital signs including temperature, blood pressure, and oxygen levels. When clients feel unwell, we can provide GPs with accurate, data-backed information—often preventing hospital admissions and ensuring rapid treatment at home.
Chaplaincy Support
Our team includes a qualified chaplain who provides spiritual and emotional support, recognising that caring for the whole person means addressing faith needs alongside physical care.
True 24/7 Availability
Professional care shouldn’t stop at 5pm. When clients need us—whether it’s a midnight welfare check or an emergency bathroom flood—we’re there. We go beyond contracted hours because it’s simply the right thing to do.
Consistent, Trusted Carers
We assign the same carers regularly, building genuine relationships rather than sending different faces every day. Your parent will know who’s coming and feel comfortable and safe with familiar carers who understand their preferences, routines, and personality.
