About Our Barnet Service

Compassionate Home Care Across the London Borough of Barnet

Kome Care is a CQC-registered home care agency providing person-centred domiciliary care throughout the London Borough of Barnet. If you or a loved one needs support after a stay at Barnet Hospital (part of the Royal Free London NHS Foundation Trust) or following treatment at Chase Farm Hospital, our care teams can step in with a settled package of care at home.

Barnet is one of London's most populous boroughs, stretching from the leafy streets of Finchley and Whetstone in the south up to Edgware and New Barnet in the north. Our carers live and work locally, so they understand the community, the transport links, and how social care works here. We liaise closely with the London Borough of Barnet Adult Social Care team (020 8359 4230) and with local NHS discharge teams to get care in place without delay.

Every care package begins with a free, no-obligation home assessment carried out by a Kome Care coordinator. We listen carefully to the client's wishes, health history, and daily routines, then build a care plan that we review regularly and update as needs change. Our carers are enhanced DBS-checked, trained in medication management, moving and handling, and infection control, and they are backed by a 24/7 on-call team.

Needs vary widely, from a few hours' companionship each week to a live-in arrangement with a care professional in the home, and Kome Care can consider both. We have long experience of supporting clients living with dementia, Parkinson's disease, stroke, and other long-term conditions, helping people stay safely and independently at home for longer.

Services We Provide in Barnet

  • Hourly Care: visits from 30 minutes to several hours for personal care, medication, and meals
  • Live-in Care: a dedicated carer living in the home, providing 24-hour support as a genuine alternative to residential care
  • Overnight Care: sleep-in or waking-night carers who keep your loved one safe and comfortable through the night

  • Respite Care: planned or emergency short-term cover so family carers can rest and recharge
  • Companion Care: social visits, accompanied outings, and help with activities that ease isolation and lift wellbeing

Complex Care

Nurse-Led Complex Care at Home in Barnet

Complex care is our principal specialist service, delivered alongside the personalised home care described above. It is for people whose needs go beyond routine support — significant or changing health needs, delegated healthcare tasks, complex medication, neurological conditions, or clinical interventions that need proper oversight.

We keep an honest distinction between capabilities we already hold and can deploy after assessment, and interventions we can consider but would need to build for your specific package — recruiting, training and competency-assessing staff before care begins. That distinction matters most to case managers and discharge teams, because it is the difference between a package that starts next week and one that needs a month of preparation.

Before we accept a complex package in Barnet

Acceptance depends on the person’s assessed needs, location, staffing, the competencies required, equipment, safe rostering and clinical arrangements. We look at:

Assessment & clinical risk

What the person actually needs, and what could go wrong.

Interventions & competencies

Which clinical tasks are involved and who is signed off to do them.

Staff matching & training

The right people, trained for this package rather than in general.

Equipment & safe rostering

Whether the rota can be sustained, not just started.

Escalation arrangements

Who gets called, and how quickly, when something changes.

If we cannot put those in place safely, we will tell you so rather than accept the package and work it out afterwards.

Common Questions

Home Care in Barnet: Your Questions Answered

We consider enquiries from across Barnet. Whether we can take on a particular package depends on the person’s postcode, what care is needed, and whether we can put together a safe, sustainable care team for it. Tell us the postcode and the type of support required and we will confirm.
Yes. Our regulated service, Kome Care Community, is registered with the Care Quality Commission. CQC Location ID: 1-15308134496.
Not yet. Kome Care Community has been registered but has not yet been inspected, so there is no CQC inspection rating. Registration and an inspection judgement are two different things, and we would rather say so plainly than let a badge imply an outcome that has not happened.
It means nursing expertise sits behind the decisions that matter, used proportionately. Care plans receive nursing review and sign-off where our clinical governance process requires it. Where needs are complex, clinical or higher-risk, nursing involvement runs through assessment, care planning, competency and oversight. Routine companionship or household support does not need to be turned into a clinical service.
Not necessarily. A Care Coordinator is normally your first point of contact after an enquiry, and the level of clinical involvement depends on what the person needs. Where complex, clinical or higher-risk needs are identified, nursing involvement forms part of the assessment and care planning.
We can consider complex-care packages. Acceptance depends on the person’s assessed needs, location, staffing, the competencies required, equipment, safe rostering and clinical arrangements. Some interventions are established capabilities; others need package-specific training and competency assessment before care can begin.
It depends on the person’s needs, the hours required, the location and whether an appropriate care team is available. Straightforward packages can be arranged relatively quickly once assessment and staffing are complete. Higher-acuity packages need specialist recruitment, training and competency sign-off first. We confirm a realistic start date after the assessment rather than promising one we cannot meet.
Care can be delivered 24 hours a day where that forms part of the agreed care package. Where continuous active support is required, we put an appropriate staffing and rota model in place rather than relying on one care professional for uninterrupted 24-hour active care.
We provide 24/7 operational support for existing care packages, which is a different thing from general enquiry availability. General enquiries are answered 9am–6pm daily; outside those hours there is an on-call route for urgent issues relating to care already in place. It is not an emergency medical service — in a medical emergency, call 999.
We do not promise that the same care professional will attend every visit. What we do is prioritise continuity: a small, consistent team built around the person wherever possible, with proper cover for leave, sickness and training, and we tell families when the team changes.
Depending on the person’s circumstances, care may be self-funded or arranged through routes such as local-authority funding or Direct Payments, NHS Continuing Healthcare (CHC), or a Personal Health Budget. We can explain the proposed service and provide provider information where a funding body or professional is involved. Eligibility and funding decisions themselves rest with the relevant local authority, NHS body or other authorised decision-maker.
