Care at home for families across Lambeth
Protocol Healthcare Services provides trusted home care in Lambeth for older people, adults with disabilities and anyone who needs a little more support to stay safe and independent at home. We coordinate care right across Greater London from our Edgware office, and our local Care Professionals know this South London borough well, from the busy heart of Brixton and Kennington through to the leafy streets of Herne Hill, Clapham and Streatham.
Whether you are looking for a short daily visit to help a parent get up and dressed, or full-time live-in support after a hospital stay, we build the care around the person, not the other way round. 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 Lambeth
Lambeth is one of the most diverse and vibrant of the inner London boroughs, stretching from the River Thames and the South Bank down through Brixton and Tulse Hill to Streatham and West Norwood. Many of the people we support want to stay close to familiar places, whether that is a walk in Brockwell Park, a trip to Brixton Market, a look at the restored Brixton Windmill, or a quiet afternoon near the Kia Oval cricket ground. Our care is designed to keep those routines going, not replace them, so life at home stays as full and connected as possible.
We regularly support people coming home from St Thomas' Hospital on Westminster Bridge Road, run by Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust, which sits within the borough overlooking the river. 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.
Adult social care in the borough is overseen by the London Borough of Lambeth. If you think a relative may qualify for help with funding, you can ask Lambeth 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.
