At Homecarers Care Services, we provide Home Care & Support, also known as Domiciliary Care.
For many families living far away from loved ones, it can be very difficult to help an older parent, family member or friend living on their own. A health condition or increasingly limited mobility can increase isolation for elderly people, or maybe there just aren’t as many friends around to spend time with as there once were who are able to offer daily companionship care.
If you are interested in our social and assisted visits, or if you have any questions, please feel free to contact us. We would love to hear from you and discuss how we can help you or your loved one live a better and happier life at home.
Loneliness can have a significant impact on mental health and wellbeing, which in turn can delay recovery from illness and injury. Companionship homecare offers a friendly face and allows you to take back control of your life, re-enabling involvement in social events and activities.
Why choose Social and Assisted Visits
Promotes Independence and Confidence
Social and assisted visits allow individuals to continue living in their own home while receiving just the right level of support. This balance helps them stay in control of their lives and maintain a sense of independence and dignity.
Tailored Companionship and Support
Regular visits provide meaningful social interaction, helping to reduce loneliness and isolation. Carers build genuine relationships with clients, offering companionship that boosts emotional well-being and mental health.
Flexible and Personalised Support
Unlike the structured routines in care homes, assisted visits are completely tailored. Whether it’s help with shopping, attending social activities, or light housework, care is adapted to suit each person’s lifestyle and preferences.
Encourages Community Engagement
Social visits help clients stay active within their own community — attending clubs, visiting friends, or simply getting out for a walk. This connection to local life helps maintain identity and prevents the social withdrawal often linked to residential care.
Less Disruptive Than Moving Into Home
Home visits allow individuals to stay in a familiar and comfortable environment. There’s no need for a major lifestyle change or emotional upheaval, which can be particularly beneficial for those with dementia or anxiety.
Cost-Effectiveness for Specific Needs
For those who need part-time or moderate levels of support, home care can be more cost-effective than paying for full-time residential care. It also offers flexibility to scale up or down depending on changing needs, avoiding unnecessary expense.
