Looking for clinical, tailored support at home?

Getting older doesn't mean you have to move out of your home

It might have become harder to keep up around the house or get to the shops. Or you may need support to manage complex health and clinical needs.

Whether you need a little help, or a lot, our team brings the care to you.

We've been caring for over 90 years, so wherever you're at, whatever you need, we have the skills, experience and compassion to help. 

Even if you don't know what to do next, we do.

The care you need, at your place

Discover more about what's included in our home care, or check out what's available in your area.

We do nursing and clinical care, by experts

Our professionally qualified clinical care managers can come to your place and manage medications, wound care, post-op care, injury support and more.

We do dementia care, that really connects

Our dementia expertise informs every aspect of our care, with home care teams skilled in support for people living with dementia, and specialist advice available.

We do respite care, day or night

You don’t have to go it alone – we offer a little extra care for a few hours, or a few days, with personalised, compassionate respite support at home, or at one of our cottages or day centres.

We do physiotherapy, and more

Getting older doesn’t have to mean slowing down – our physiotherapists, dietitians and other allied health professionals are standing by to support you.

We do a little home help, inside and out

Our team can help with practical, day-to-day tasks such as meal preparation, grocery shopping, and keeping your home and garden tidy and safe.

We do palliative care, with compassion

However complicated things get, our home care teams can support people (and their families) facing a life-limiting illness to live in their own home, as well as possible, to the very last days.

We do pastoral care, whatever you believe

As an independent Christian charity, we offer emotional and spiritual support to people of all faiths, or none, from any cultural background: it’s about what matters to you.

We do volunteers, for great company

Whatever you love, there’s probably a HammondCare volunteer who loves it, too. Our 650+ volunteers are looking forward to spending time with you, enjoying your hobbies, activities and interests.

We do social clubs, because connection matters

Step out of your routine at one of our Social Clubs, while your carer takes a break. Chat with people your own age, take part in activities, and share in a delicious, homemade lunch.

It's all about you

We want to get to know you! That's how we provide the best care possible. So, we listen to you, and together we develop a care plan that’s tailored specifically to your needs, outlining the home care services you require and how often you need them.

And whatever comes, we'll adapt with you - continually reviewing the plan so you're always getting the care you need.

★★★★★ Google Review

"Mum receives level 4 support managed by HammondCare and lives with me. I can't fault their care, with wonderful, carefully picked workers who look after Mum so well. I'll say I'm pretty fussy as I'm an RN and expect high standards... It's been such a positive experience over the last 12 months, when I'd heard so many stories about other providers."

★★★★★ Google Review

"I'm very impressed with HammondCare. I contacted five different companies at the same time and HammondCare won hands down with their support as I navigated the process, their knowledge and advice and their responsiveness. Within two weeks I had signed up with them and support workers started immediately."

★★★★★ Google Review

"HammondCare have been very caring and understanding, particularly in the wake of such a horrid year. Without the carers and admin staff I would be in a much worse headspace and home than I am now. I can't fault any of the team who have supported me."

★★★★★ Google Review

"My dad received exceptional care and the staff were so loving and caring throughout his journey. My dad passed with love, dignity and care. I would give the team ten stars if I could."

★★★★★ Google Review

'The team helps my mother with personal care and companionship each week. She looks forward to seeing them and we couldn't be happier with the support. They are caring, respectful and always willing to help.'

★★★★★ Google Review

"My husband's Home Care is managed by HammondCare and our Case Manager has been outstanding. Nothing is too big or too difficult to organise. We couldn't ask for better support."

★★★★★ Google Review

"My wife and I both receive support from HammondCare at home. The team are bright, happy and make us feel on top of the world. The service has been so good that we've both chosen HammondCare as our provider."
