Our Home Care Services

At Visiting Angels Lincolnshire, we believe that everyone deserves to live comfortably, safely, and independently in their own home. Our home care services are designed with compassion and flexibility, making sure you or your loved one receives the right level of support exactly when it’s needed.

Whether it’s a few hours of help each week, daily personal care, or overnight assistance, our Angels are here to make life easier, safer, and more enjoyable. We provide personalised home care in Grantham, Newark-on-Trent, Melton Mowbray, Bourne, and surrounding villages, always delivered with dignity, respect, and a genuine commitment to improving quality of life.

Choosing a care provider is one of the most important decisions a family will ever make. What sets Visiting Angels apart is our person-centred approach. We design every care plan around the unique needs of the individual, ensuring the right balance of independence, safety, and companionship.

Key reasons families choose us:

• Minimum of one-hour visits – no rushed care.

• Choose your carer – during your assessment, you’ll meet and select the carer who feels right for you.

• Continuity and trust – we prioritise building long-term relationships.

• Specialist training – our Carers are fully trained to deliver high-quality care across a wide range of needs.

• Carer-centric approach – we value and reward our carers, ensuring they stay with us and with you.

Our flexible hourly home care gives you the right level of support when you need it. Each visit lasts a minimum of one hour, giving our Carers time to provide meaningful and unrushed care.

Personal Care

Our Carers provide respectful, discreet, and sensitive personal care to help with:

• Bathing, showering, and grooming

• Getting dressed and undressed

• Continence care and toileting needs

• Assistance with eating and drinking

• Medication reminders

• Mobility support around the home

We understand that personal care can feel daunting, but our Angels are trained to provide assistance with dignity and compassion.

Help at Home

We support you with everyday tasks that keep your home comfortable and your routine running smoothly:

• Meal preparation and cooking

• Light housework, laundry, and ironing

• Shopping and running errands

• Organising household tasks

• Accompanying you to appointments

Our goal is to make sure you or your loved one can live independently in a clean, safe, and welcoming home environment.

Overnight Care

For many families, night-time can be the most worrying time. Our overnight care gives peace of mind, knowing an Angel is there through the night to:

• Assist with mobility during the night

• Provide reassurance if you wake up confused or anxious

• Offer continence support

• Ensure safe access to the bathroom or kitchen

• Simply be there as a calming presence

Our Carers receive specialist training to deliver tailored care for a wide range of health conditions.

• Dementia & Alzheimer’s Care
  We help individuals with memory challenges maintain independence and enjoy familiar routines, while offering support and reassurance to their families.

• Cancer Care
  Our Carers provide practical and emotional support to individuals and families affected by cancer, ensuring comfort and dignity throughout treatment and recovery.

• Parkinson’s Care
  With patience and understanding, we support people with Parkinson’s to manage mobility challenges and daily routines.

• Palliative & End-of-Life Care
  Delivered with compassion and sensitivity, we support families at one of life’s most difficult times, ensuring dignity and comfort for your loved one.

• Mobility Support & Arthritis Care
  Practical help with moving safely around the home, exercises to maintain independence, and gentle encouragement to keep routines manageable.

Leaving hospital after surgery, illness, or an accident can feel overwhelming. Our hospital discharge care provides practical support so you can recover in the comfort of your own home.

We assist with:

• Transport home from hospital (in coordination with family)

• Medication collection and reminders

• Help with mobility and transfers

• Preparing meals and maintaining hydration

• Support with personal care and dressing changes

• Monitoring for signs of recovery or complications

This service helps reduce the risk of readmission and ensures a smoother recovery period.

Loneliness is one of the biggest challenges many older adults face. Our companionship service provides friendly, reliable, and meaningful support, helping to improve emotional wellbeing.

We take time to get to know you – your interests, hobbies, and routines – and match you with a carer you’ll feel comfortable with. During your assessment, you’ll have the chance to choose your own carer, ensuring a strong and trusting relationship.

Our companionship care includes:

• Conversation and social interaction

• Accompanying you on walks, outings, or to appointments

• Helping with hobbies, games, or activities

• Providing encouragement to stay active and engaged

• Sharing meals or simply being present for company

Who We Care For

Visiting Angels supports a wide range of individuals, including:

• Older adults wishing to remain independent at home

• People living with dementia, Parkinson’s, cancer, or mobility challenges

• Adults recovering from hospital stays or illness

• Families who need respite support for a loved one

• Anyone in need of companionship and social interaction

Supporting Families as Well as Individuals

We know that arranging care doesn’t only affect the person receiving it – it affects the whole family. Our service gives families peace of mind, knowing their loved one is cared for by skilled, compassionate professionals. We provide regular communication and encourage open dialogue so families always feel informed and supported.

Our Carer Promise

At Visiting Angels, we treat our carers with the same respect we expect them to show to our clients. This carer-first approach means:

• Our carers are paid fairly, including travel time and mileage.

• We invest in ongoing training and professional development.

• We value their work-life balance and wellbeing.

By looking after our Angels, we ensure they stay with us longer – meaning our clients benefit from continuity of care and a more reliable service.
