At Universal Care services, we provide Home Care & Support, also known as Domiciliary Care.
Universal Care Services 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 Universal 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 Universal Care Assistants who will visit on a rota basis.

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.
