Home Care and Healthcare Staffing in Basingstoke

Basingstoke • Hampshire

Trusted care and staffing across Basingstoke

Protocol Healthcare Services works with families and care providers across Basingstoke and the wider north Hampshire area. For families we arrange home care that helps a loved one stay safe and independent at home, from a short daily visit through to full live-in support. For care providers we supply qualified nurses, carers and support workers, drawing on more than ten years of experience matching the right people to the right settings.

We are honest about where we sit. Our base is in the South of England, not in Basingstoke itself, so we do not run a local office in the town. What we do offer is genuinely national reach as an REC-affiliated healthcare staffing agency, coordinating care and placing vetted professionals in Basingstoke the same way we do everywhere we work. Every person we introduce has enhanced DBS and right to work checks, references and training completed before they start, with a consultant on hand around the clock.

Local knowledge across Basingstoke

Basingstoke is one of Hampshire's largest towns, home to well over a hundred thousand residents across neighbourhoods such as Chineham, Old Basing, Brighton Hill, Popley, South Ham, Buckskin, Kempshott and Hatch Warren. The town has grown quickly since its post-war expansion, mixing established communities near the War Memorial Park and Festival Place with newer developments out towards the M3 and the A33. Care needs vary just as much across these areas, from town centre flats within reach of The Anvil to the quieter streets of Oakridge, Winklebury and Lychpit, so we tailor support to the person and the place rather than offering a one size fits all service. Most local addresses fall within the RG21, RG22, RG23 and RG24 postcodes, and we can arrange care across all of them.

We regularly support people returning home after a stay at Basingstoke and North Hampshire Hospital on Aldermaston Road, which is part of Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and also runs the Royal Hampshire County Hospital in Winchester and Andover War Memorial Hospital. The first weeks back at home matter, so we help with medication routines, mobility and rehabilitation support and stay in close contact with families and community teams. Care provided in England, including in Basingstoke, is regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC).

Adult social care in Basingstoke is provided by Hampshire County Council rather than the borough council, so the county is the right first port of call for statutory support. If you think a relative may qualify for help with funding, you can ask Hampshire County Council for a free care needs assessment, followed by a financial assessment. Many families we work with self-fund their care, and we are always happy to explain how the different routes work. You can read more on our paying for care guide.
