Autism and learning disability home care, built around the individual
What is cancer care at home?
Cancer care at home is flexible, one-to-one support tailored to the unique needs of someone living with or recovering from cancer. Whether you’re undergoing treatment, recovering from surgery, or managing long-term symptoms, our carers support you or your loved one to feel safe, supported and comfortable in familiar surroundings.
Coming to terms with a cancer diagnosis is one of the toughest challenges anyone can face. Our goal is to make each day easier.
Our cancer support can include:
Managing Medication
From collecting prescriptions to medication prompting.
Safe Mobility
Help with getting around your home safely.
Discreet Personal Care
Such as bathing, dressing and grooming.
Social Activities
Whether in the home or out and about, we’ll help you stay connected to your social circle.
Companionship
Someone to spend time doing what you love with.
Domestic Tasks
Helping to maintain the cleanliness and tidiness of your house.
Why choose cancer home care services?
Being at home allows for more rest, more control and more peace. There are no rigid routines, hospital noise, or unfamiliar faces. With home care, you’re looked after by a professional on a one-to-one basis where you feel most comfortable.
We know that cancer affects not just the individual, but their entire circle of support. Our carers can step in to give family members a break, offer reassurance when you can’t be there, and keep everyone informed and involved.
Compassionate support with cancer home care from Visiting Angels
At Visiting Angels, care is personal. You choose your carer; someone you feel at ease with and who truly understands what support looks like for you. We don’t believe in rushed visits or rotating faces. Instead, we build relationships, because real care takes time and trust.
We also look after our carers, which means they stay with us (and with you) for longer. That consistency is key during cancer treatment and recovery, when stability and comfort matter most.

How does cancer care at home work?
What are the benefits of cancer home care?
Being at home means you’re surrounded by familiar things, close to loved ones and able to follow your own routines. With one-to-one support, you get personalised care without the stress of hospital environments.
Can you offer end of life care for cancer patients at home?
Yes. We provide sensitive, dignified end of life care at home for individuals with cancer. Our carers work alongside palliative care teams, GPs and hospice services to ensure comfort, pain management and emotional support during this time. We also support family members, offering respite and reassurance so no one feels alone.
How much does private cancer care at home cost?
The cost of cancer care at home depends on the level of support needed, the length of visits, and how often care is required. We offer flexible care packages to suit different needs and budgets, with transparent pricing and no hidden fees. You may also be eligible to receive funding – see our care funding guide for more information.
