For many families, there's real comfort in knowing a loved one can remain at home while receiving palliative care, so at Home Instead, we provide personalised at-home palliative care across Aberdeenshire. This allows people to stay surrounded by the places, routines and memories that bring reassurance during a challenging time, and enables loved ones to visit and provide comfort at any time. Being at home makes it easier to enjoy precious time with family, spend quiet moments with a beloved pet, or simply sit in the garden listening to familiar sounds – whatever brings joy to your loved one's day, we can make sure this is a priority for them. Every aspect of our care is centred on protecting their dignity, supporting their emotional wellbeing, and helping them to feel comfortable and at ease while managing pain and other needs with compassion. Our goal is always to help each day feel as peaceful and fulfilling as it can be.

The team here at Home Instead Aberdeen are proud to provide expert home care in Aberdeenshire. Get in touch to find out how we can help you or your loved ones.
Comfort means something different to everyone receiving palliative care; while one person may value peaceful afternoons doing a crossword with a family member, another might find reassurance in larger family gatherings, watching grandchildren play, or spending time with old friends who always bring laughter. We begin by listening carefully to what's important to your loved one, and spend just as much time learning about their personal preferences and what makes them feel at ease, as we do learning about their medical needs. Our Care Professionals are trained and assessed to fulfil your loved one's specialist care needs, and can provide highly personalised support, from personal care to housekeeping to meal preparation. Everything is designed to address their needs, maintain a calm home environment, and adapt as things change. We also do this in a way that reflects your loved one's wishes, while also following Care Quality Commission regulations to ensure high standards of compassionate, person-centred support throughout every stage.
Whatever your situation, Home Instead can provide quality care to enable your loved one to stay where they belong: at home. Share your details here and one of our friendly advisors will reach out to answer your questions.

When someone is receiving palliative care, seeing a familiar face can provide comfort and reassurance at a time when so much else may feel uncertain. That's why we match your loved one with a dedicated Care Professional who takes the time to get to know them, build trust, understand their preferences, and become a consistent part of their support network during this challenging time. Whether it's accompanying them to appointments at Aberdeen Royal Infirmary, liaising with visiting healthcare professionals, or simply being there to listen when they need emotional support, our Care Professionals can provide dependable companionship alongside practical assistance, which ensures your loved one has everything they need at home. All of our Care Professionals receive specialist training in palliative care communication, recognising changing needs and providing compassionate support. We can also work closely with your family through regular reviews, helping to ensure your loved one's care evolves as their circumstances change, while also preserving the meaningful relationships in their day-to-day life that help them to feel connected, supported and less alone.
Studies find that people with a life-limiting illness and their families both prefer palliative care at home, and remaining in familiar surroundings can enhance their quality of life. Home Instead's Aberdeenshire team helps families make the most of this valuable time together by easing the practical demands of daily life and a challenging illness. Your loved one's dedicated Care Professional may help by creating a peaceful environment, encouraging rest, preparing light meals, assisting with gentle mobility around the home, and supporting medication routines where appropriate, all while helping to manage symptoms and maintain their comfort at all times. Behind every visit is a dedicated local office team coordinating care planning, organising rotas, reviewing support regularly, and adapting services whenever your loved one's needs change over time. Working alongside district nurses, GPs and local palliative specialists, they help to provide seamless care that keeps your loved one's comfort and wellbeing at the centre of every decision.
We adapt our services to fit your life, delivering compassionate, consistent, and attentive care, enabling you to thrive in your home and community.
