Discover the Comfort and Convenience of Healthcare at Home, Instead.

Bypass hospital waiting times and embrace our innovative 'Healthcare at Home' service, providing expert clinical care right in your own home.

What is Healthcare at Home?

Healthcare at home is a service that provides medical and non-medical care to individuals in the comfort of their own homes. This type of care is designed to support patients who may be recovering from an illness, injury, or surgery, managing a chronic condition, or needing assistance with daily activities due to age or disability. Historically, healthcare primarily took place in hospitals; however, with growing waiting lists, infection concerns, and over-stretched hospital staff, Home Instead’s healthcare at home offering is the perfect solution. It provides stress-free, one-to-one specialist support in your own home, where you feel happy and comfortable.

Why is Healthcare at Home important?

With increasing concerns about hospital waiting times and bed blocking, the need for efficient and effective home-based care has never been more critical. Healthcare addresses these issues by providing tailored support that enables patients to recover and thrive in the comfort of their own homes, with the help of their own carefully matched Care Professional. By easing the transition from hospital to home, Healthcare not only enhances the quality of life for patients but also alleviates the strain on the healthcare system, ensuring that hospital resources are available for those in urgent need.
