Live independently at home with personalised homecare solutions
For those struggling with a chronic illness or disability, at-home care can be life-changing. At Abacare, it’s our goal to help you or a loved one live a healthy, independent life in the place you feel most comfortable.
We provide hourly care options across Wales offering a reliable service in the comfort of your own home.
Our vision
Everyone in Abacare is clear about our vision to deliver the highest possible standards of care to our clients.
Our priority is helping clients maintain the maximum degree of independence possible. This is made clear during initial training and through our ongoing refresher training sessions.
Our aim is to exceed the National Minimum Standards for care as a means of differentiating ourselves from our competitors and become an effective and dependable provider that includes:
- Recruiting and retaining the best staff, as well as training and rewarding them better than our competitors
- Providing 24/7 support to both clients and our staff
- Upholding a strong set of core values
- Robust performance monitoring to underpin continuous improvement and standards of compliance
- Working with our clients to develop and deliver the requirements of person-centred care plans; treating people with respect, honesty, and dignity; and empowering them to remain as independent as possible.

Dementia Care
Being diagnosed with dementia doesn’t mean you have to lose control of your life, or your independence. Many people continue to live fulfilled and happy lives for many years, even if adjustments are necessary.
For many, live-in care is often a far better alternative to long-term residential care. Personalised support allows an individual to remain in the place they feel the most comfortable – their home. Plus, families get the assurance that a care professional has the skills needed to encourage independence, provide companionship, and ensure the health and safety of their loved one.
Lending a helping hand
At Abacare, we understand that for many people, inviting a stranger into their home is a huge step. However, our care professionals will soon become a valuable member of the household.
It’s our goal to help clients live as independently as possible. We also know the importance of assisting with crucial tasks such as cooking, washing, household chores, and shopping.
Personalised dementia support
Each person with dementia is a unique individual with their own life experiences, emotions, and likes and dislikes. Although some symptoms of dementia are common to everyone, the condition affects each person in different ways. It’s vital that this is recognised and understood.
It’s important for those with dementia to know they still have an important part to play in life. At Abacare, we strive to give encouragement, reassurance, and support to other family members so they understand their loved one’s needs and concerns.

Respite Care
Available for a minimum of two weeks, an experienced and fully trained live-in care professional will be on-hand to support the routines and lifestyle of the person being cared for.
Our respite care is centred on you, your loved one, and the home. We have many families that ask us for on-going respite, as this enables them to plan their breaks throughout the year in advance, often benefiting from the same care professional each time.
However, we also understand that respite care is often an emergency situation. As a flexible company with a large pool of excellent carers, we can usually arrange for respite care quickly and efficiently.
Short-term breaks are the ideal stepping stone if you are considering live-in care as a more permanent on-going solution. It gives you the opportunity to test the relationship of one-to-one care without any long-term commitment.
Reablement
We also offer reablement over a six week period. This method of support is best suited to those who have spent some time in hospital or residential care and wish to regain their skills and independence in their own home.
Reablement training is provided for all new recruits as part of the induction training.
At Abacare, we enjoy what we do and are proud of the investment we make in growing our working relationships with partner organisations.
Our respite and reablement service aims to:
- Help reduce avoidable hospital admissions, support timely discharges, and prevent readmissions.
- Use early and intensive interventions within the client’s own home to help them regain their abilities and improve your quality of life.
- Support clients to re-learn and maintain daily living skills.
- Help regain independence by reducing the need for support services.
- Promote a person’s physical, social, and psychological health and wellbeing and their identified outcomes.
- Help develop a range of skills and competencies.
- Work with clients to support a positive transition to a stable long-term package that continues the “enablement” ethos.
Our services are available 24-hours a day, 365 days a year, including bank holidays, depending on the assessed need. Contact us today to learn more.
