What is Domiciliary Care?
Domiciliary Care, also known as Home Care, involves receiving support with daily activities while remaining in the comfort of your own home. Whether it's help with cleaning, cooking, or simply having someone to talk to, we're here to make life simpler and more enjoyable.
A typical Care visit
To be fair, there’s no such thing as a standard Domiciliary Care visit with us. Each visit is tailored to the unique needs of your loved one, as everyone’s requirements are different.
That said, here are some common tasks our skilled Care Experts are often asked to assist with:
- Engage in conversation and reminisce about past memories
- Prepare nutritious, well-balanced meals
- Organize and collect medications
- Take care of shopping needs
- Handle daily household chores to reduce the burden
- Accompany them on visits to friends and family
- Assist with getting settled into bed at night
- Go for walks together
The benefits of Domiciliary Care
When you choose to work with us, the advantages are clear, with the most significant being that your family can remain in the place they cherish for longer.
But there’s so much more to it. They receive personalized, one-on-one support, help with daily tasks and guidance in preparing healthy meals. They also get someone to share stories with, a new friend who can help them reconnect with old ones, and a secure, familiar environment that can help slow down age-related conditions like dementia.
In short, everything your loved one needs to live a healthy, enriching life at home.
The advantages of Home Care vs a Residential Care Home
Everyone is unique, with their own preferences and needs. However, here are some of the most common reasons why those we care for choose Domiciliary Home Care services:
- You can maintain your independence and stay in your own home instead of living with others.
- You don’t have to share communal areas.
- You receive personalized, one-on-one care and support.
- You won’t have to compete for the attention of carers.
- You can stay with your pets and keep the things you love, rather than leaving them behind.
- You don’t need to worry about easily spreading infections.
- You can follow your own routines, instead of adapting to someone else’s.
Care that adapts
