The new Skills for Care 2025 report is out, and it confirms the challenges we see every day across England:

1 in 5 care roles still turn over each year; Qualification levels are falling, even as care needs become more complex; Many providers continue to rely on short-term or agency staff.

This is the national picture. But it is not our story.

At Sylvian Care South-East London, we’re proud to be different. Our team is built from the ground up on continuity, compassion, and skill.

Where the national picture shows a system under pressure, we’ve built a service focused on personal connection and professional excellence.

We don't come in thinking we know what's best for you – you do. We're not about ticking boxes – we're about people. This is a partnership that evolves with you. You'll never get a 'computer says no' response from us.

If something isn't working, we'll solve it together. Our role is to:

Listen, learn your preferences, and follow your lead; Offer suggestions when asked, provide guidance when needed, and support you through every step. The decisions are always yours; Keep you in control of your own life and care.

At Sylvian Care South-East London, we see care as it should be: a human responsibility, not just a business.

If you or a loved one is considering home care and you're tired of the statistics, talk to us. Let us show you the Sylvian Care difference.
