Home Care and Healthcare Staffing in Middlesbrough

Trusted care and staffing across Middlesbrough

Protocol Healthcare Services works with families and care providers right across Middlesbrough and the wider Teesside 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 do not run a branch office in Middlesbrough, but we coordinate care and place vetted professionals here the same way we do everywhere we work, with enhanced DBS and right to work checks, references and training completed before anyone starts, and a consultant on hand around the clock.

Local knowledge across Middlesbrough

Middlesbrough sits on the south bank of the River Tees at the heart of Teesside, with the Tees Transporter Bridge standing as one of the town's best known landmarks. It is a town of contrasts, from the Victorian terraces and student streets close to the centre out to the quieter suburbs, and care needs vary just as much from one neighbourhood to the next. We tailor support to the person and the place, whether that is a flat in Central and North Ormesby or a family home out in Marton, Nunthorpe or Coulby Newham, rather than offering a one size fits all service.

We regularly support people returning home after a stay at The James Cook University Hospital on Marton Road, part of South Tees Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and the major trauma centre for the Tees Valley and North Yorkshire. 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. For many people a little help getting to Albert Park in Linthorpe or the local shops is just as important as the practical side of care.

Adult social care in the town is overseen by Middlesbrough Council. If you think a relative may qualify for help with funding, you can ask the 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.
