Domiciliary care

There are many reasons why you may be looking at care options. You may be looking for yourself or on behalf of a friend or relative. A little support may be needed with household tasks that have become difficult, more help may be required following an illness or accident or through age-related frailty. We know it is important to be able to continue to live in your own familiar surroundings, sleep in your own bed, sit in your own garden and have someone on hand for general support and conversation. “Domiciliary Care” encompasses a variety of different forms of care and the number of names for it can be confusing – domiciliary care, live-in care, home care and community care being some of the variations. Domiciliary care generally means receiving care services in your own home.
