On behalf of our Hard of Hearing group I would like to thank you very much indeed for giving us such a very interesting talk. It certainly made me, and I am sure everyone else, aware of how vigilant we must be. Scammers always seem to be thinking up a new wheeze, don’t they! Anyway – our thanks again.
Annette (Hard of Hearing Group)
We conducted a service review in January with our client, Michael, and he had nothing but wonderful things to say about you, Chris! He praised your knowledge, compassion, and professionalism and considers you more than just a Care Professional—you’re a true friend. He especially enjoys your easy-going nature and how much you both connect over shared interests.
Thank you for making such a positive difference in Michael’s life!
Michael (Client)
I approached Home Instead 8 years ago when my dad had the shattering news of a dementia diagnosis. Initially, he needed company and support with shopping and household chores, Understanding that someone with dementia needs stability and consistency, he received support from the same two ladies for several years.
Overtime, his care, and support has been adapted to meet his changing needs, he now has a live in carer with Home Instead – which happened to be one of his main carers, which helped the transition. As a direct result of her support, he maintained links with the community and has continued to attend Dementia friendly clubs and events. In cold weather, Home Instead staff have offered their own program of events activities he loves, including puzzles, board games, arts, and crafts.
His care needs have slowly but steadily increased over the years they have been there for every step of the journey. Supporting us with local Therapy services, his home has been adapted to keep him as safe as possible, providing excellent care and support over the years, giving the whole family significant peace of mind. It has allowed my dad to live at home, independent and have the best life possible. I have nothing but praise and gratitude for the service they provide.
Julie (Daughter of Client)
I just wanted to say that Chris has been an outstanding carer. He was calm and totally capable from the moment he arrived, which was impressive in the circumstances.
He seems to be a genuinely kind person who puts thought and effort into making things better for my Dad.
He’s been thinking of different meals to cook which might be more tempting and healthier for Dad. When he walks Dad back from the toilet he takes him past the back door where they stop and look out at the garden. He’s also been working on getting him to watch different programmes instead of just Death In Paradise on a loop. He encourages Dad to do his exercises and to walk around every couple of hours.
He’s also very good with practical things and technology – stairlift, ordering the shopping etc. He’s not the kind of carer who’s calling me all the time. He knows which are the important things (medications, safety, food, drink etc) but otherwise I feel I can relax knowing Dad is in safe hands.
He’s level-headed and sensible, he’s conscientious, he’s interested, he puts effort and energy into making things better for Dad.
Greg also agrees with me that Chris is an absolutely top carer. One of the best we’ve had.
Jenny (Daughter of Live in Client)
The carers that come in on a daily basis to my Dad (92) are first rate. I have peace of mind that someone is seeing him on a daily basis as I live so far away. They all take great care of him, and nothing seems to be too much trouble. Would highly recommend Home Instead East Hampshire.
Sue (daughter of client)
The care provided to my mother (95) by Home Instead for over a year now has been excellent. The quality of the carers is first class – they are professional, caring, thoughtful and helpful, and my mother is very happy with them and the service they provide. It is a huge comfort to me to know that my mother is being looked after well and has been able to stay in her own home – something that is very important to her. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending them.
Tim (Son of Client)
I have had carers from Home Instead for about 4 years and been very happy with the care I have received. My current carers are excellent and have become good friends.
Mick (Client)
The staff at Home Instead have been caring for my father for about 4 years now and I can’t speak highly enough about them. They visit him at his home on a daily basis and make sure that he is coping with his dementia and help him with daily tasks that he is no longer sure about. They also involve him in the excellent activities for dementia sufferers that Alton provides, and together his two main carers have made a terrific difference to the quality of his life which I could not have managed on my own. I would highly recommend the services of Home Instead and have frequently done so since I discovered them. Thank you, all of you.
Jennie (Daughter of client)
The care we received from Home Instead was excellent; Mum enjoyed the carers’ engagement and reassurance.

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. Personal care services encompass assistance with daily activities like bathing, grooming, and mobility support. Day care services offer companionship and engagement during the day, while our home help and housekeeping assistance ensure a clean and organised living environment. Overnight care, respite care, and other specialised services are available to meet unique needs. Contact your local Home Instead office to learn more about our tailored domiciliary care options.
