Browse Care Types
Doris works best when each care need has a clear home. Start with the care type that best matches your situation, then move into a dedicated enquiry page when you are ready.
Respite Care
Respite care offers temporary support for someone who normally receives care at home - whether it's for a few hours, days, or weeks. It allows family carers to rest, take time off, or attend to other responsibilities while knowing their loved one is safe, cared for, and supported.
Care in Your Home
Care at home (also known as domiciliary care) involves trained carers visiting or living with a person to assist with tasks such as washing, dressing, medication, mobility, meal preparation, and companionship.
Palliative Care
Palliative care is specialised support for people with serious or life-limiting illnesses. It focuses on improving quality of life by managing pain, symptoms, and emotional, spiritual, and practical needs - not just treating the illness.
Mental Health Care
Mental healthcare provides support, treatment, and guidance for individuals experiencing emotional, psychological, or behavioural difficulties. Whether facing anxiety, depression, or more complex mental health conditions, the right care can make a life-changing difference.
Nursing Care
Nursing care provides professional clinical support for individuals with ongoing or complex health needs. Whether delivered at home, in a care home, or as part of rehabilitation, nursing care ensures medical treatments, symptom monitoring, and personal support are carried out safely and respectfully.
Residential Care
Residential care offers 24-hour support in a warm, community-based setting for individuals who can no longer manage safely at home. It provides personal care, meals, companionship, and help with everyday tasks - all delivered by trained staff in a homely environment.
Adult Day Care
A day care centre is a community-based service offering daytime activities, personal care, meals, and support for older adults or people with disabilities or memory loss, typically for a few hours a day.
Live-in Companion
Do you have a spare room and would like a companion, friend and more help? The Doris Project is proud to announce a ground breaking new partnership with Two Generations - a thoughtful and innovative process where an individual is sought to share a home. Someone who can provide practical support, friendship and companionship in exchange for affordable accommodation.
