A Passion for Care

We're a CQC regulated care provider working with Devon and Cornwall Council, and privately funded clients across the community.

Welcome to Devoncare - Home Care in Devon and Cornwall

From our base in Plymouth we provide Complex care and Home care services to a wide range of people in our local community (who live with a range of conditions, illness, and disabilities) who need care and support, while living in their own home, or a supported living environment.

The people we support are our focus and priority. We help them with what they need, and we support them to do the things that they want and wish to do, to maintain and retain their skills and independence.

Care Tailored to Your Needs

We assist with tasks as discussed with you, helping to maintain independence at home. This can include: washing and dressing, help to get up and go to bed, toilet assistance, bathing, sitting service/companionship and sleepovers. Our staff team also offer help with household tasks including shopping, domestic housework, laundry and preparing meals. We ensure care and support is safe, caring, responsive, effective, and well led.

We had the sudden need for help looking after one parent. Devoncare came to the rescue like a knight in shining armour. Lloyd not only fully understood our needs, but had a live in helper organised and Chi arrived the next morning. Not only did Chi crasp what help was needed both physically but medically as well. We couldn't have wished for more. Can thoroughly recommend Devoncare.
