These thoughtful touches reflect our dedication to providing home care that values connection, comfort, and a sense of belonging.

I cannot thank the carers enough for looking after my mum for just over the last year. They spent quality time with her, chatting, playing cards and even bringing a fan round when it was warm, as well as doing the things that absolutely had to be done. They even visited Mum when she moved to her care home, to help her settle in. Thank you to the whole team for your support, it has been very much appreciated.

We were extremely grateful to Home Instead for putting care in place very quickly when our mother was discharged from hospital. Within a few days, they had assessed her needs working closely with the NHS team and put a support package together with highly competent and experienced caregivers. It has enabled mum’s return home to go smoothly and helped her get back on her feet quickly. The caregivers are lovely people and mum enjoys having them in the home and also importantly it helps the rest of the family to know that we have expert help at hand.

Home Instead has provided absolutely invaluable support to my Mum since my father’s death in July 2020. They not only make it possible for Mum to live independently in her home, but also provide me and my brothers with peace of mind that Mum is safe and coping when we cannot be with her every day. Mum’s carer is so good and writes a daily report based on the care plan. She will also forward messages if there are any particular concerns. I would definitely recommend Home Instead to anyone needing care for their relative.

I cannot express enough how amazing Home Instead have been in looking after my mum. We changed carers in September 2022, and honestly do not know why we didn’t change sooner – there is no comparison. From the initial meeting, they put our minds at rest and have really made mum feel comfortable and valued, and her carers have become genuine friends who she really looks forward to seeing every day. I have even been away for a couple of short breaks and know that she will be totally looked after while I am away and that everything will be covered. I can always rely on them. It’s the kindness that the carers show that really stands out – as if she were one of their family. I would not hesitate in recommending Home Instead to anyone.
Thank you!

My Dad has recently passed away and I would like to extend my sincere appreciation to all of the Home Instead team from the carergivers to the admin team, nothing was ever too much trouble for them all. My Dad had carers for several years and they became friends to him, he looked forward to their visits and enjoyed the fact that they were on time, he knew who was coming and the fact that they stayed an hour meant that they had time to chat, joke ,do wordle with him, collect his prescription, water the garden cooking, washing etc. This was a complete turnaround from when he first had to have care and he was very reluctant to have strangers in his house, and so I am writing this review to reassure others in the same situation. From my perspective, it was comforting to know that Dad was so happy with his care team and when I had to cancel/re-install care due to hospital stays nothing was too much trouble when I contacted the office.
So a big heartfelt thank you to you all.

Home Instead was strongly recommended to us by the local NHS community matron following some health issues that my mum was experiencing. It was soon clear as to why.
Home Instead has been able to support Mum in a variety of ways, most importantly, with personal care and companionship, especially where I have experienced my own significant health issues. Mum has a great rapport and enjoys the support of our caregivers, and we do not know where we would be without them. The mobile app provides us with information on how Mum is and actions that we need to take e.g. medication issues. Home Instead has been instrumental in helping Mum to continue to live contentedly and safely at home.
The whole ethos of Home Instead is to have care and companionship at the heart of everything they do, and I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone who needs care support like my mum needs.

Search here if you cannot see your town or postcode - What is domiciliary care?
Domiciliary care, also known as home care, refers to a range of supportive services provided to individuals who require assistance with daily activities but wish to remain in the comfort and familiarity of their own homes. This type of care is tailored to the specific needs of each person and can include tasks such as personal assistance, meal preparation, companionship, and even light housekeeping. Domiciliary care allows the elderly to maintain a degree of independence while receiving the necessary support to lead a fulfilling and safe life at home, with peace of mind for their loved ones knowing that they have support.
Discover More - Why choose domiciliary care?
Domiciliary care allows elderly people to remain at home in a familiar environment – boosting wellbeing and happiness – while promoting independence and autonomy, providing personalised and family-involved care, being cost-effective compared to institutional options like care homes, reducing lifestyle disruption and helping to maintain routines. All these things can contribute to better emotional and mental wellbeing, but also provide peace of mind to elderly individuals and their families. The decision to opt for domiciliary care depends on individual needs and circumstances, with many of the advantages stemming from its tailored, in-home support.
- How does domiciliary care help?
Domiciliary care provides valuable support to elderly people by offering a range of services tailored to their needs that are delivered within the comfort of their own homes. These services can include assistance with daily activities such as personal hygiene, grooming, dressing, and medication management. Care Professionals can aid in meal preparation, ensure proper nutrition, and help with mobility. Companionship and social interaction are also crucial components, addressing feelings of isolation and loneliness.
It is also a great way to enhance the safety of elderly people at home, reducing the risk of falls and accidents through monitoring and support. Household tasks like cleaning and laundry can be managed too, alleviating more stress. All of these types of help together means that domiciliary care promotes independence, enhances quality of life, and provides a sense of well-being and security for elderly people who may have difficulty managing on their own.
- How much is domiciliary care?
The cost of domiciliary care can vary widely depending on factors such as the level of care needed, the number of hours of care required, the geographic location, and the specific services provided. Generally, domiciliary care costs are broken down into hourly rates, and the total expense can accumulate over time. Domiciliary care can often be more affordable than moving to a care facility, but it’s essential to research and understand the costs of services covered by the fees to make the right choices for yourself or your loved ones.
- Is domiciliary care good value/cost effective?
Domiciliary care can often provide very good value and be highly cost-effective, especially when compared to the expenses associated with moving into a care home or similar residential facility. While the exact costs depend on individual needs and location, receiving personalised care in the comfort of home can be more affordable and efficient in terms of both financial investment and comparative wellbeing. Having care and support delivered at home allows seniors to maintain their independence, avoid the costs associated with residential care, and receive tailored assistance that can enhance their quality of life. However, it’s important to thoroughly assess the specific services, rates, and available funding options to make an informed decision about the cost-effectiveness of domiciliary care for your specific situation.
- How is domiciliary care funded?
Domiciliary care can be funded through several avenues. Private payments allow individuals and/or their families to cover costs directly, while long-term care insurance policies may also provide coverage to help. Government support is available through programs like the National Health Service (NHS) and local authorities, which offer assistance based on care needs and financial circumstances. Veterans may access funding through veterans’ benefits, and charitable organisations or grants can provide additional financial aid. Both personal budgets and direct payments are generally offered by local authorities, giving people more direct control over how to fund care services. Navigating these funding options usually entails meeting eligibility criteria, and selecting the best-suited avenues for the financial and care requirements you or your loved ones have.
- Who might use a domiciliary care service?
Domiciliary care services are sought by all kinds of people who require support to maintain their independence and wellbeing as they age, or to help ease back into a routine at home after surgery or in the case of long term illness. Family caregivers seeking respite and support also often welcome at-home support to help with managing long term care, and it can be highly beneficial to elderly people who may feel isolated or lonely, as Care Professionals provide companionship and social interaction. Anyone in need of personalised assistance and support with daily activities within the comfort of their own home can benefit from some form of domiciliary care.
- What is the role of a domiciliary care worker?
A domiciliary care worker’s role involves providing tailored support to seniors within their homes. Workers assist with personal care tasks like bathing and grooming, aid in mobility, prepare nutritious meals, offer companionship, manage medications, perform light housekeeping, provide transportation, and monitor health conditions. Their responsibilities extend to emotional support, safety awareness, documentation, and collaboration with healthcare professionals. By promoting independence and well-being, Care Professionals providing domiciliary care play a crucial role in helping the elderly to maintain a comfortable and fulfilling lifestyle within their own homes rather than needing to be taken into a residential facility.
- What is the difference between domiciliary care and residential care?
Domiciliary care, or home care, offers personalised support within an individual’s own residence, encompassing tasks like personal care and companionship. It allows seniors to remain at home while receiving the necessary assistance. In contrast, residential care involves relocating individuals to specialised facilities such as assisted living or nursing homes, where they receive around-the-clock care, including help with personal needs, meals, and medical requirements. The decision between these options hinges on someone’s particular care needs and their preference for staying at home or transitioning to a residential care facility.
- What domiciliary care services can you provide?
At Home Instead, we provide a comprehensive range of domiciliary care services designed to help elderly adults maintain their independence and comfort within their own homes. Our offerings vary by location but typically include essential services such as companionship, where our Care Professionals engage in conversations, games, and outings, and provide emotional support.
