TYPES OF HOME CARE WE PROVIDE IN ABINGDON
There are many things to consider when choosing home care for yourself or a loved one. You may need clarification on which type of care can best holistically meet all your needs. Oxford Aunts makes arranging care as simple as possible by offering two main options: round-the-clock, live in care and flexible hourly care. Find out more about our home care services in Abingdon.
VISITING HOME CARE IN ABINGDON
If you require extra support at home, visiting home care provides a flexible solution. In Abingdon, one of our care workers can visit your home to assist with personal care, household tasks, safe mobility, and medication administration.
We understand that each individual has unique requirements. You may require regular weekly visits for more complex needs while your live in carer takes a break or some extra support with running errands, meal preparation, and housekeeping. Our hourly care is personalised to best fit your lifestyle, ensuring you always receive the appropriate support.
Your caregiver will be equipped with the necessary skills and knowledge to support you with your daily routines. Whether this involves going for a walk in Abbey Meadows or popping into your local shop, we’re confident that you will build lasting relationships with one of our carefully matched carers.
LIVE IN HOME CARE IN ABINGDON
Live in care offers continuous, round-the-clock support directly in your home, eliminating the need to move into residential care, even if you are living with complex needs from a condition like dementia or Parkinson’s. With Oxford Aunts, you can have a care worker reside within your home to support you on your journey, providing a better quality of life and improved health outcomes.
Our live in care service is fully managed and regulated, meaning our carers are directly employed and have attended our five-day induction programme. This ensures that you receive exceptional care, while we handle the logistics of paying, managing, and supervising your care service.
Our training covers a range of areas, including dementia care, safeguarding, medication administration, and end-of-life care. We will match you with a carer based on your preferences, personality, and interests, enabling you to build lasting relationships and improve your quality of life.
Our live in care includes:
- Full time support (24/7)
- Personalised care tailored to your needs
- Nurse-led care for complex health conditions
- An experienced carer with the right skills and experience

COMPASSIONATE AND FULLY-TRAINED CARERS IN ABINGDON
At Oxford Aunts, we understand how important it is to have a carer with the knowledge and experience to provide unrivalled support. For that reason, we ensure that all our carers have at least six months of professional experience. We also have a thorough recruitment process, where only 2% of applicants pass our comprehensive selection criteria.
During our thorough induction programme, our carers are trained in an array of modules, including first aid, complex conditions such as dementia, moving and handling, and end-of-life care. Some of our carers are qualified nurses, and many hold UK care qualifications. For further development, refresher training is offered annually to ensure our carers are up-to-date with best practices and continue to provide exceptional care.
Both our clients’ and carers’ well-being is extremely important to us, which is why we match our clients with local carers based on their preferences, experience, and values. We know this selective matching process results in a better overall care experience and improved client health outcomes.
