Home Care

Providing high-quality, specialised care that is fully customised to your unique needs.

At Hartwig Care, we provide Home Care & Support, also known as Domiciliary Care.

Hartwig Care provides a bespoke visiting home care service, to offer a little extra support; allowing you to continue living independently in your own home.

The service is extremely flexible – our Hartwig Care Assistants can visit once a week, or up to several visits a day throughout the week, depending on what is needed. We understand the importance of continuity, and depending on your requirements, there may be two or three Hartwig Care Assistants who will visit on a rota basis.

Why choose Home Care

Stay in a familiar environment

We can support you in maintaining your independence while receiving the necessary care you need, as well as creating a familiar and stress-free environment. With our help, you can enjoy a higher quality of life without the need to leave your cherished home.

Highly Trained Professionals

We pride our selves on our meticulous, accredited training. All our new starters, no matter their experience, spend their first week, learning the ins and outs of how we work! This means you can trust us to provide you or your loved ones consistent high quality care.

Personalised, One-To-One Support

At home care ensures dedicated, tailored care that focuses solely on the individual’s needs and wishes. Unlike shared settings, carers provide uninterrupted support, helping to manage symptoms, pain, and emotional well-being with compassion and dignity.

Time with Family and Loved Ones

Home-based care makes it easier for family and friends to spend meaningful time together without strict visiting hours. Loved ones can be present, involved, and supported throughout the process, creating a more personal and connected experience.

Respect for Personal Routines and Wishes

Care at home respects the person’s values, preferences, cultural or religious practices, and choices about how they wish to spend their remaining time. This level of personalisation is harder to achieve in institutional settings.

More information and FAQs

Home care is support provided in your own home to help with daily tasks such as personal care, medication reminders, meal preparation, companionship, and more. A trained carer visits at agreed times to assist with specific needs, allowing individuals to live independently and safely at home.

Home care is suitable for older adults, individuals with disabilities, those recovering from illness or surgery, and people with long-term conditions. It’s flexible and tailored, meaning support is adjusted to match each person’s unique situation and preferences.

Care Assistant visits can range from short daily check-ins to multiple visits a day, overnight stays, or even 24-hour live-in care. We’ll work with you to create a care plan that fits your lifestyle and level of support needed.

Yes, home care is a safe option. Our carers are trained, DBS-checked professionals who follow strict safety protocols. We also conduct regular quality checks and risk assessments to ensure your home environment remains safe and supportive.

Costs depend on the level and frequency of care required. Some individuals may be eligible for local authority funding or direct payments. We’re happy to guide you through the funding process and provide a clear, no-obligation cost breakdown during your initial assessment.

Care stories

When I was discharged from the hospital after my operation in September last year, I began receiving twice-daily care from Hartwig Care (morning and evening), and they have been wonderful for me. They help me take a shower, get dressed, make my bed, and prepare my food. They always assist with whatever I need. They make me feel happy. They are incredibly helpful, and I love them for it.

Esther O – Service User

The carers always make me laugh. If I'm feeling down, they are there to help me through it. They talk to me and lift my spirits when I'm upset. They provide the companionship that most people in my position yearn for. While I have family, it's important to have someone outside the family, and they provide that, along with washing me or making me a cup of tea, which is lovely.

Jen H – Service User

I have been with Hartwig Care for about 6-7 years. The care package I receive includes personal care, helping me change and get ready for the night. My carers also assist me with shopping. My carers are wonderful. They are caring, considerate, and make me laugh.
