Domiciliary Care Worker

What is Domiciliary Care?

Domiciliary Care is support for anyone who wants to remain at home and keep their independence but needs extra support.

Domiciliary Care Workers provide regular at home visits to help with a variety of things such as:

  • Personal Care (Showering, Bathing, Dressing, Maintaining Comfort, Supervising Medications)

  • Companionship & Hobbies Facilitation (Companionship and social interaction helps to enhance mental wellbeing and ensures that the person in their care has someone on hand to talk to, whether that’s about a particular topic or something that might be troubling them)

  • Housekeeping & Meal Preparation (Housekeeping tasks like polishing, cleaning the windows, or sorting out the laundry can soon build up. Domiciliary support can take care of these tasks, ensuring that the house is kept in a clean and tidy condition)

Nursing & Caring Direct aims to provide the highest standard of care to all customers.
