Our Circle of Care
We provide care that is centred around the individual. This approach creates the ‘Circle of Care’ – a philosophy that places our clients at the centre of a holistic support system that connects families, our skilled caregivers and support teams with Public Health Nurses, GPs and physios.
Connection, confidence and choice
While some of our clients need us to pop in once a week for some help around the house, others require daily support.
Some clients need temporary help after surgery or respite care to give their loved ones some rest, while others use our services on an ongoing basis. Whatever the situation, we shape our care around our clients’ needs and proudly enable each individual to live their life with connection, confidence, and choice – in a way that is meaningful to them.
Why choose home care?
Choosing home care allows our clients to maintain their confidence and independence at home. They receive the level of care and support they need without the stress of a big move.
Choosing to privately fund home care or apply for a HSE Home Support Package is a big decision, and navigating the various options can seem daunting, but we’re here to help. We offer a range of personalised home care packages tailored to our client’s specific needs.
Getting started
Step 1 – Contact your local office
Begin your journey by contacting your local Dovida office on 049 430 9140. We’ll have a quick conversation about your unique needs and organise a free, no-obligation consultation.
Step 2 – An initial consultation at home
A local Care Manager will visit a potential client’s home for a consultation, where they are welcome to ask questions and explore their options.
This will help us to get a better understanding of an individual’s needs and create a care plan that best supports them.
Step 3 – Find the right match
We’ll carefully match a caregiver or a team of caregivers to our client, taking into account their preferences, needs, and interests.
Visits will be scheduled to their date and time preference to create a stress-free start to their care.
Step 4 – Get to know each other
Our caregiver will begin by getting to know their client’s routine and needs, so they can start building a long-lasting relationship.
Step 5 – Ongoing review
Our Care Manager will work to ensure that our care meets the client’s needs and that they are happy with the service provided. Care Plans and the schedule of visits will be amended to support changing requirements.
