Home Care

Helping to improve quality of life at home

Our home care services help improve quality of life for people of all ages by helping to maintain their independence and keep them living in their own homes for as long as they wish.

Home care is also referred to as domiciliary care. It involves professional, highly trained staff helping clients with everything from domestic chores and shopping, making meals and arranging travel to and from hospital and other appointments to simply providing companionship.

We work with everyone from young disabled people and adults with physical or learning disabilities to people who need a bit of help getting back to normal after a stay in hospital. Many of our clients are older people who need a helping hand with their everyday lives.

Home care can be ongoing, short term, or called upon from time-to-time, and includes the following:

• Personal Care – Mobility, washing and dressing, bathing, assistance with medication, showering and continence support.
• Night Care – help with overnight care to give family members or your other carers a night or two off.
• Sitting Service – taking care of you while your family members or carers go out or take a break.
