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

Parmjit (Pam) Dulai
Care Manager
I started my career as a nurse having qualified as a Registered Nurse in 1987. For seven years I was a Practice Nurse at a GP practice before I started my family. When I returned to work, I decided to become a carer working for a domiciliary care agency providing hourly care to older people, where I progressed my career and became a Care Manager. I joined Oxford Aunts in 2019 and whilst my previous care role gave me good experience, I am thrilled to be working for a provider that offers quality live-in care, that truly enhances the lives of its clients.
As Care Manager at Oxford Aunts, I am responsible for ensuring our clients and their families have a dedicated point of contact who truly understands their requirements and can support their service. I have a deep understanding of our carers, not just in terms of their skills and experience, but their personalities and values. This means I can effectively match our carers with clients to ensure, not just their care needs are met but that the carer is aligned to how the client wishes to live their life. I work closely with our Care Assessor which means our clients have a highly personalised care plan that accurately reflect their needs. As part of our multidisciplinary approach to care I work closely with other healthcare professionals, including district nurses, physiotherapist and occupational therapists to ensure a holistic approach to care delivery.


Wendy Newsome
Care Assessor
I am originally from New Zealand, where I started my career in a hospital setting where I was a Senior Care Assistant in a Specialist Dementia Care Unit. I decided to come to the UK to develop my career further in care, whilst spending time with my grandparents.
I joined Oxford Aunts in November 2015 as a live-in carer. Having researched a number of live-in care providers to potentially work for, Oxford Aunts was the stand- out choice given its reputation for providing high-quality care in Oxfordshire. I have been supported by the team in my role and afforded an opportunity to develop my career and I am now a Care Assessor. I feel privileged to support people to live safely and happily in the comfort of their own home, with all the benefits that brings. I am proud to be part of the Oxford Aunts team, who have the welfare of their clients at heart.
As a Care Assessor at Oxford Aunts, I am responsible for ensuring our clients can live well in their own homes with care and support from our live-in carer, whilst providing both the client, their families and our carers any support they may need. From the initial assessment of a client’s needs to the on-going review of our service, I provide high levels of support to ensure the standards of care Oxford Aunts are renowned for.
I have an NZQA National Certificate in the Support of the Older Person.
