What is Domiciliary Care?
Domiciliary care, also known as home care or visiting care, is a flexible support service where professional carers visit your home to provide assistance with daily activities. Unlike residential care homes, domiciliary care allows you to remain in familiar surroundings while receiving the exact level of support you need to maintain your independence and quality of life.
Our domiciliary care services can be arranged for as little as 30 minutes per visit or for several hours per day, depending on your specific requirements. Whether you need assistance with personal care, medication management, or simply companionship, our tailored approach ensures you receive precisely the support you need, when you need it.
What sets domiciliary care apart from other care options is its flexibility and personalization. Rather than adapting to institutional routines, our care revolves around your established lifestyle, preferences, and schedule – allowing you to live life on your own terms.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between domiciliary care and live-in care?
Domiciliary care involves scheduled visits from carers at specific times throughout the day or week, with each visit typically lasting between 30 minutes and several hours. Live-in care, by contrast, provides round-the-clock support with a carer living in your home. Domiciliary care is ideal for those who need regular assistance but not constant supervision, while live-in care suits individuals with more comprehensive needs requiring 24/7 support.
How quickly can domiciliary care be arranged?
At Tier One Care, we can often arrange emergency domiciliary care within 24-48 hours. For non-urgent cases, we typically complete the assessment and care planning process within 3-5 days, allowing time for a thorough needs assessment and careful carer matching. Our responsive approach ensures you can access the support you need when you need it, without unnecessary delays.
Can I change my domiciliary care schedule if my needs change?
Absolutely. One of the key benefits of our domiciliary care service is its flexibility. We understand that needs can change, sometimes unexpectedly, which is why we make it easy to adjust your care schedule. Whether you need to increase or decrease the frequency of visits, change the timing, or add new services, we’ll work with you to adapt your care plan accordingly.
How do you ensure the quality and reliability of your carers?
We maintain exceptional standards through our comprehensive recruitment, training, and supervision processes. All our carers undergo thorough background checks, including enhanced DBS screening, and complete extensive training before working with clients. Once in the field, they receive regular supervision, spot checks, and ongoing professional development to ensure they continue to deliver care of the highest quality.
Can domiciliary care be provided on a temporary basis?
Yes, our domiciliary care services can be arranged for both short and long-term periods. Whether you need temporary support following hospital discharge, respite care to give family carers a break, or ongoing assistance, our flexible services can be tailored to your timeframe and adjusted as your needs evolve.
