Domiciliary Care

Maintain your independence by living safely and comfortably in your own home.

What is Domiciliary Care?

An alternative to residential care, domiciliary (or at-home) care is a type of clinical care that is delivered at home. This allows you to remain in an environment that is safe and familiar, as well as to maintain your independence and spend more time with your family, friends, and pets.

This type of care can involve a range of tasks, including household chores, personal care, and companionship. It can also include the provision of support outside the home, including attending appointments, shopping, and visiting with family and friends.

About our Domiciliary Care Services

HH Care Services’s highly skilled nursing team can provide domiciliary care for both children and adults. We provide a range of services that are designed to meet the specific needs of our service users:

Personal Care Visits

Depending on the needs and preferences of the service user, we can visit a few times a fortnight or every single day.

24-Hour/Live-In Care

When more support is required, we can provide 24-hour or live-in care to ensure that you’re looked after 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

12-Hour Shifts

Whether you need support throughout the day or overnight, our nurses will be there when you need them.

Short Breaks or Respite Care

Our nursing team can provide carers with a much-needed break, allowing them to step away and return refreshed.

Who is Domiciliary
Care For?

Ultimately, domiciliary care is for anyone who wants to remain at home while receiving the care and support they need. There’s no such thing as a one-size-fits-all approach, as every service user has their own unique set of needs and goals.

It’s beneficial for people of all ages and with a range of conditions or injuries – the team at HH Care Services provides domiciliary care for children and adults from all walks of life, no matter how straightforward or complex their needs may be.

Domiciliary care also provides your family with support, as your care needs won’t rest solely on their shoulders (which can be very stressful and challenging, especially where complex needs are concerned).

How Domiciliary Care Can Help

Although there are many reasons that people prefer to remain in their homes over an extended stay in a hospital or a residential facility, domiciliary care offers many advantages:

Home
Comforts

Service users are able to receive the level of care and support they need in the comfort and familiarity of their own homes. This can provide them with a sense of comfort, security, and emotional wellbeing, which all improve their overall quality of life

Privacy and
Dignity

Receiving care in the home helps to preserve the privacy and dignity of service users. Hospitals and residential facilities are notoriously busy places with staff coming and going at all hours, not to mention other patients and their visitors.

Independence and
Freedom

The fact that domiciliary care enables service users to remain at home promotes independence. They will be able to maintain a sense of autonomy and control over their life, from making choices about their daily routine to being around people they know and love.

Frequently Asked Questions About Domiciliary Care

It can actually be a cost-effective alternative to residential care, especially if you’re a couple (who both require some level of care) or only require care on a personal care visit basis.

We work collaboratively with service users, healthcare professionals, families, and advocates in the provision of care. Our care plans are person-centred and customised according to each individual’s needs. We also take the time to get to know each service user before matching them with carers who are competent, highly professional, and who practice our core values (compassion, care, respect, and dignity).

This will be entirely dependent on your specific needs and the care plan that has been created. Personal care visits can be as short as 30 minutes to several hours in length. Live-in care is slightly different, as carers are required to take a mandatory break time each week (this will be covered by a visiting carer or a family member if required).
