Care at home is sometimes known as homecare or domiciliary care. This service provides a carer who visits you at home to support you with tasks, helping you to live independently.
To meet your individual needs and help you to make an informed choice, here are some things to consider when looking for care at home services, some questions to ask providers and where to find more information.
Find locally available care at home providers. Some services provide personal care while others do not. Those providing personal care (which is help with washing, dressing and toileting) must be registered with the Care Quality Commission (CQC), who monitor, inspect and regulate services.
