Hourly in home care – sometimes called visiting care – is provided to people in their own homes when additional support is needed with day-to-day life. A competent and compassionate carer will help you with:

• Household tasks
• Personal care
• Preparing and cooking meals 
• Any other activity that allows you to maintain independence and quality of life  

Care at home can be provided from a one hour visit to as many hours / visits you require throughout the day, one or several days of the week depending on your care and support needs.  For those who have complex needs, hourly care can be provided over a 24-hour period.

Hourly home help can be used to support you if you are living with a condition that impacts your ability to live independently and need condition-led care, for example:

• Hourly care for dementia or Parkinson’s,
• You are recovering from an illness or hospital treatment
• You need help at home following a stroke.
