Domiciliary care is more cost effective
Domiciliary care, has become increasingly popular in recent years, and for good reason. Not only does domiciliary care offer numerous benefits for those who require assistance with their daily activities, but it is also a cost-effective alternative to other forms of care, such as nursing homes or residential facilities.
One of the main reasons why domiciliary care is more cost-effective is that it eliminates the need for individuals to move into a care facility. Nursing homes and similar institutions often come with high fees and expenses, including room and board, nursing staff, and overhead costs. By opting for domiciliary care, individuals can avoid these additional expenses and continue living in their own homes, with the support they need.
Another factor that makes domiciliary care more cost-effective is the individualised nature of the service. Unlike in nursing homes, where care is often generalised and provided to a large group of residents, domiciliary care is tailored to the specific needs of each individual. This means that there is no need to pay for services that are not required, resulting in significant cost savings
