Domiciliary Care

You will receive your own tailor-made care package to suite your unique needs, and you will have your own carer. They will help you achieve yours or your loved one’s personal needs and wishes, while supporting you through your plan. Typically, a care worker will visit several service users in succession every morning (and/or lunchtime or evening) and assist them to get up and prepare for the day. Workers will often prepare meals and undertake other domestic duties in the course of their work. Once or twice a week, there may be shopping to do or benefits to collect on behalf of the service user.

Domiciliary Care vs. Care Homes

For some families, care homes provide everything that’s required and are seen as a safe environment for their loved ones where they can have constant access to the support that they need. However, the comfort and familiarity of being at home is often overlooked as an option. This is where the benefits of domiciliary care can be seen.

One of the main benefits of domiciliary care is that it provides a substantial level of support without impacting on your loved one’s independence. Our flexible and unique care plans can also accommodate for existing routines and special circumstances. We give the following support:

  • Personal care – washing, dressing etc.
