Kells Domiciliary Care provides flexible care and practical support in your own home across London. Whether you call it home care, homecare or care at home, we will help you explore an arrangement suited to your circumstances. From a short visit each day to personal care, support for a family member with additional needs or a live-in care arrangement, we will listen to what matters to you and discuss a plan around your circumstances.
We have more than 30 years of care experience. Our service is built around dignity, choice, continuity and helping people remain as independent as possible in familiar surroundings. Every package starts with a conversation and an assessment of the support required.

Regular or occasional visits can be arranged around your routine. Depending on the agreed care plan, a carer can help with getting up and ready for the day, personal care, meals, medication support, companionship and settling in for the evening. Visits may be scheduled once or several times a day, or arranged as a one-off where available.

Live-in care provides support in the home from a carer who lives in the household, subject to suitable arrangements for accommodation, breaks and cover. It can be considered by people who need more consistent help but wish to remain at home rather than move into a care home. The level of support is agreed individually; live-in care is not automatically a substitute for continuous one-to-one attention or clinical nursing.

Our carers can support agreed everyday activities while respecting each person’s privacy, preferences and independence. This may include washing and dressing, toileting, mobility around the home, preparing meals, laundry, light household tasks, shopping and errands, companionship and assistance with routines. The tasks provided are set out in the individual care plan.

We can discuss tailored home support for people with learning disabilities, autism, mental health needs, physical disabilities and other additional support needs. For children and young people, arrangements are planned with the family around the child’s needs, routines and safeguarding requirements. The support that can be provided depends on an individual assessment, staff skills and the agreed care plan.
Planned short-term care can help when a family carer needs a break, after a change in circumstances or while longer-term arrangements are being considered. Tell us what cover is needed and when; availability and the type of support will depend on the assessment and staffing arrangements.
