Types of cancer care
We offer cancer care as part of our primary services, which are all fully managed but suited to different lifestyles. At Trinity Homecare, we are committed to supporting individuals with cancer to live fulfilling and comfortable lives at home. Offering both visiting care and live-in care across the UK, we provide heartfelt cancer care for those who need it the most. Different types of cancer care we offer include:
Whether you need a short weekly visit, or someone to help you multiple times every day, our visiting care services are completely tailored to your needs.
Visiting care allows you to stay at home whilst carers support you with tasks like bathing, dressing, taking medication, and helping out around the house. We can also help with your daily routine, taking you to medical appointments, popping to the shops, cooking your dinner, and looking after your beloved pets. Whatever level of care and attention you require, our heartfelt team of carers is here to provide for you.
A professionally trained carer lives with you in your home to provide full-time care whenever you need it. Live-in care is a welcome alternative to residential care and usually includes personal care, supervision of medication, helping with jobs around the house, cleaning, cooking, and companionship. We carefully match a carer who will suit your personality and lifestyle so you develop a personal bond, you will be able to see the carer profile and decide if you’d like to proceed with that carer.
In-home respite care services help transfer care responsibilities in times of need. Typically, this is to cover for loved ones, relatives, or professional care assistants that require time away from their clients. Find true peace of mind through Trinity’s in-home respite care services, allowing your loved one to stay in the comfort of their home with all their needs taken care of. In urgent situations, we also offer emergency respite care.
Our palliative care service is suited for anyone living with a terminal illness or very complex condition. Support from Trinity Homecare ensures that you or your loved one receives heartfelt and compassionate care to support your overall well-being. Carers offer emotional support as well as practical care such as assistance with personal care, household tasks, and medication.

Cost of cancer care
The cost of care can be a big worry for those considering cancer care services. The care costs for a cancer patient at home are typically higher, as it is a specialist care-at-home service. However, each situation is different, and it is important to know that live-in care costs can sometimes be less than visiting care depending on the number and frequency of visits to your home.
Cancer care at home is typically in line with, and sometimes less than, residential care but with the added benefit of receiving one-to-one tailored care, in the comfort of one’s own home. Visiting care starts at £34.70 per hour and live-in care starts from £1,400 per week.
At Trinity Homecare we treat each client as an individual, preparing a tailored care plan to suit each situation. We offer a free no-obligation enquiry and assessment service. Meaning that you can explore our services, get a thorough assessment, and a clear indication of costs and care, without any pressure to commit.
In some areas of the U.K. you may be eligible for grants or funding to support your cancer care. Macmillan Cancer Support, Charis Grants Ltd, and Turn2us are just some of the organisations that may be able to help you with accessing grants.
