Home Care in Portobello & Joppa

Our locally managed team provides personalised home care in the Portobello & Joppa area of Edinburgh, with our Care Professionals delivering support that’s uniquely tailored to each client’s needs and understand that no two clients are alike. As a Care Inspectorate ‘Excellent’ rated provider and Top 20 Home Care company, we carefully match our Care Professionals and Clients to create genuine, lasting relationships. We love helping our clients stay connected to their community, whether it’s a peaceful afternoon at Portobello Beach, enjoying fish and chips on the promenade, or taking a gentle stroll through Rosefield Park or a relaxing lunch in The Beach House Cafe. From one-hour visits to around-the-clock care, our experienced team offers comprehensive support including specialist dementia and Parkinson’s care, all while maintaining close relationships with GPs and healthcare teams.

Based here in Edinburgh, our local office team coordinates personalised home care across Portobello and Joppa with attention to detail and taking the time needed to understand each client’s individual support needs, routines and interests, creating flexible care arrangements to perfectly fit their lifestyle. Our supportive visits are an hour or longer, which means our Care Professionals can focus on providing attentive, thorough support without watching the clock. We adapt our care as needs change, helping clients maintain their independence while living comfortably in their own homes for as long as possible with complete peace of mind.
