Care at home for families across Finchley

Protocol Healthcare Services provides trusted home care in Finchley for older people, adults with disabilities and anyone who needs a little more support to stay safe and independent at home.

Every Care Professional we place is vetted with enhanced DBS and right to work checks, references and training before they support you, and the same familiar faces return wherever possible so trust can grow.

Local knowledge that makes a difference in Finchley

Finchley is a large, leafy part of north London built around three centres: Finchley Central and Church End in the N3 postcode, North Finchley around Tally Ho Corner in N12, and East Finchley in N2. Many of the people we support have lived here for decades and want to stay close to familiar places, whether that is a morning along Ballards Lane, a quiet afternoon in the gardens at Stephens House in Church End, a show at the artsdepot by Tally Ho Corner, or a film at the historic Phoenix Cinema in East Finchley. Our care is designed to keep those routines going, not replace them.

We regularly support people coming home from Barnet Hospital and from Finchley Memorial Hospital on Granville Road, both run by the Royal Free London NHS Foundation Trust. Getting the first few weeks at home right matters, so we help with medication routines, mobility and rehabilitation support, and we keep in close contact with families and district nurses to spot any problems early. This hospital-to-home support can make the difference between a confident recovery and an avoidable readmission.

Adult social care in the area is overseen by the London Borough of Barnet. If you think a relative may qualify for help with funding, you can ask Barnet Council for a free care needs assessment, followed by a financial assessment. Many of the families we work with self-fund their care, and we are always happy to explain how the different funding routes work so you can make a confident decision. You can read more on our paying for care guide.

Finchley sits within our wider Greater London catchment, and the team looking after this area is based at our London (Edgware) office. That means local coordinators, quick visits to set up your care plan, and a phone line answered by people who know the neighbourhoods around N2, N3 and N12.
