Funding & Fees

Prices

We pride ourselves on providing excellent quality Home Care at competitive prices.

The cost of Home Care will vary depending on the type of care you need, how often you need it, and where you live. We offer everything from 30 minute visits to 24 hour Live-in Care. If you have more complex needs, you may need two Home Carers per visit, so we can provide a cost for this too.

Live-in Care is generally considered to be a cost effective alternative to living in a care home, whilst still providing a level of independence. Everyone’s needs are different so the costs of Live-in Care can vary depending on the level of care required. Unlike other Home Care options, the costs of our Live-in Care remains the same wherever you live across the South of England.

We adapt our Home Care services to suit your specific requirements. Our Home Care costs include a personalised care plan, ensuring your care suits your needs, wishes and budget.

We want to make arranging Home Care as simple and easy as possible. When you contact your local Team, we’ll work with you to design a customised care plan. Once you choose our service, your care plan is kept under constant review so that it continues to suit you.

Your home. Your care. Your choice.

Review from Simon K (Son of Client) published on 14 April 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Incredibly pleased with the home care service received. The local Co-ordinators / Managers are fantastic. They are extremely helpful, supportive, friendly and caring. Also impressed with the follow ups they do, both with the carers and family members. The carer we have had, has been absolutely excellent. A lovely, professional person who is fantastic at her job in every way. The carers providing cover during holidays (etc) have also been very good and the transitions are normally seamless. Overall we rate this company and the people we have interacted with very highly indeed.

Overall Experience

Right from the start, the Alina team were fantastic. Every carer we met was kind and patient, understood our parents needs and enjoyed and appreciated our dad's humour! Some of them went above and beyond what they were employed to do and they truly became friends to me, my sister, and my parents. It was such a relief to be able to trust people to look after mum and dad as we could not be there all the time. The communication was great too, they regularly updated us, advised us and listened to us. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Review from Tracy A (Son of Client) published on 11 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The Alina Team were excellent, from initial call, the assessment which was thorough, and then the followup with details abouts mum's like, dislikes, hobbies, etc. They really want to get the person they are caring for, there is a full risk assessment, care needs and from experience a very balance approached to the care that needed to be provided. I was impressed by their professional approach and no attempt to oversell or upsell any services.
They were there when I needed them and the carers were great, mum's comment of "they just wanted to sit and chat", did it for me.

Excellent service , carers and office team proving a full package. Thank you.

We selected Alina Homecare from several local firms. When I spoke to them to see if they could help with my mother, they totally understood what we were going through as a family and explained how they could assist.

We were not disappointed with the service they provided us with.

Overall Experience

Alina Homecare have been looking after my brother for a number of years now. I can honestly say that I am confident he is in good hands. My brother's needs are complex and challenging. The staff at Alina are kind, friendly and professional and take everything in their stride. I have always been impressed with the management at Alina Homecare. I am kept informed if there are any issues and am able to contact the manager if I need to. In particular, this month has been difficult as my brother has spent most of it seriously ill in hospital. Alina Homecare has gone above and beyond in organising a plan for when he comes home. I have been kept informed at every stage and have been involved in every decision. I am so grateful to Alina Homecare for the kindness and professionalism they extend to my whole family, as well as to my brother.

Review from Nathan M (Son of Client) published on 10 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
They consistently go over and above what is expected, always treating my mum with dignity, respect, and genuine compassion. During some of the most difficult moments, especially when my mum's partner passed away. Donna and her team were an incredible source of support. They showed such care, patience, and understanding, and it meant more to us than they will ever know.
More recently, when my mum was very ill, the team once again stepped up without hesitation, ensuring she was supported.. Their professionalism combined with their warmth truly sets them apart.

I cannot thank Donna and her team enough. They have become much more than carers - they have become extended family. I would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for compassionate, dependable, and truly outstanding care.

Alina Home Care Brighton have been so obliging from the day I first contacted them. The office staff are friendly, approachable and listen.
The carers have all been pleasant, chatty and they all get the tasks done in a good natured way. All are professional and put the client at ease.
It's handy to follow their attendance on the app and to read what's been written. The office staff are quick to contact me if a medical issue that needs a follow up occurs.

I am really pleased with their service and thank them for their kindness.

Alina Health Care have and continues to support my elderly father with his day-to-day life, and my family and I could not be happier with the service they provide. My father's career has saved him from a series of further hospitalisations and has proven to be supportive and thorough
My fathers career has consistently shown compassion, patience and excellent communication.
The management staff at Alina are friendly, professional and always contactable.
Thank you all so much.

Review from Paul W (Son of Client) published on 10 October 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

The Alina carers have shown great passion and warmth towards my mum. I know she has not always been easy, especially as we have slipped down the memory loss scale, but their patience has been fantastic, their care and compassion exemplary. Yes, there have been a few hiccups, not unexpected, but they have been rectified by the office who have always lent a listening ear. Without the two times a day visit for half an hour, I have no doubt my mum would not be here today, and for that I am most grateful. When she had fallen or was unwell, they were swift and not backward in coming forward to take it to the next level, seeking advice when needed. I know my mum would be so grateful for all the care she has received and the interesting conversations from carers from around the world. Thank you all so much.

Review from Julia G (Daughter of Client) published on 19 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
From the initial assessment of my father's care needs till the last conversation I had with the Branch manager I found Alina Homecare to be of high standard. On the rare occasion over a period of 4 months when I had any cause for concern, any issue was dealt with professionally and kindly which was very reassuring for me as I am my parents only family member. Any telephone contact I had with the Manager or other members of the team was very respectful, helpful and dealt with in a timely manner.

When I met the care staff they were happy to listen to any comments I had about my father's care and were reliable and hardworking. Thankfully my father no longer requires as much care as he did when he was first discharged form rehabilitation after a fall at home. However as a family we know that Alina Homecare would be there if they were needed at any point in the future which is a huge weight off my mind. I would certainly recommend Alina Homecare highly to anyone.

Review from Caroline W (Daughter of Client) published on 17 January 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Alina Homecare has been nothing but professional, supportive, knowledgeable and totally caring throughout their care for my mother.
The ladies who attended Mum at home were like her family and companions but always put her health and care first with professionalism, kindness and compassion. They went above and beyond in many ways to make my mothers days that little bit brighter. They cooked and cleaned as well as taking care of all her personal and medical needs without question.
Whenever there was an issue, a slight cause for concern they were in contact with us immediately and dealt with everything where we could not.
The team in the office were always available for updates, a chat, reassurance and a kind word.

I cannot recommend Alina enough and would not hesitate to use them again in the future.

Review from Kerry D (Daughter of Client) published on 23 December 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
When my elderly Dad ended up in hospital we realised that Mum and Dad's days of being independent were over. Sadly Dad passed away a couple of months later and because of distance, as a family, we weren't able to provide the care and contact Mum needed as often as she needed so we needed some help to provide regular support for Mum who wanted to stay at home.

Initially Mum wasn't keen on the idea but the care team at Alina have been brilliant. They treat Mum as an individual, with respect and everyone in the team works well with her to make sure she is safe and has help with things she wouldn't be able to do herself. She trusts them and we trust them totally. They are professional but human with it. I know what's going on because the care plan is on an app I have access to. They communicate very well and have been flexible to suit Mum when that has been needed to accommodate appointments. I totally recommend Alina Homecare - it's been a lifeline for us. Mum is very happy and so are we!

Thank you Kerry for your lovely compliment! I will pass this on to the team, especially Mum's two main care workers.

My wife has been cared for in a most professional manner for the last 3 years. During this time she has made not only carers but very social friendships with all the pink ladies. This was very comforting for my wife as her condition deteriorated. Bless you all, you're simply the best.

Alina Homecare were able to provide us with three nights of overnight care for my mother following an accident. This was done at very short notice and they made a real effort to try and accommodate us, for which I was extremely grateful. The overnight carer was lovely and extremely kind and helpful with my mother.

Overall Experience

I cannot rate Alina highly enough. From first contact with the management team onwards, the team have been understanding, empathic and professional. The carers for my mum have treated her with sensitivity, respect and good humour. Mum adores her 'pink ladies' as she calls them and trusts them implicitly. She enjoys her time with them and feels safe and secure in their care. So many thanks to you all for everything you do for my mum, and also the support you give to my dad who is her main carer. The app facility is brilliant as I can see in real-time detailed notes from each visit which is very reassuring. Highly highly recommend Alina - A* service.

Review from Terry G (Client / Service User) published on 8 February 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I was discharged from a respite care home on 22nd June 2023 to my home which is a bungalow.
Not being able to walk properly or care for myself, Alina provided me with a live-in carer. The team leader couldn’t have been more helpful and caring. It was an uphill struggle to get funding from the local authorities but we managed it.
I needed proper nutrition owing to having intensive chemotherapy previously and my carer took on the challenge. I was provided with healthy nutritious food and soon began to thrive.
My mobility was greatly compromised initially but bit by bit I began to get about through the kindness and dedication of my carer.

I am very happy with the attention and help I received throughout and couldn’t fault the management team.

Review from J F (Daughter of Client) published on 2 February 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Mum has been cared for by Alina Homecare for many years and has needed increasing amounts of intervention and support as her condition deteriorated. Throughout this time Mum's carers were always able to adapt to her needs, ensure she had all that she needed and even plan ahead to ensure her needs would be met in the near future.
The carers on the Alina team all offer their own particular approach to how they care for Mum but all responded and behaved according to their company policy when Mum's safety and medical needs were at stake. Mum increasingly needed more and more support and help and this was provided without hesitation by Mum's carers. They attended to her personal and intimate needs with dignity and enabled Mum to be as independent as she could for as long as possible.

I was most impressed with the level of professionalism and compassion exerted by the individuals. She couldn't have been in better hands.
