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 Karen H (Daughter of Client) published on 24 April 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
After my Mum had hip surgery, we decided to look into home care. We had never had used care services before, but we are so glad we were lucky enough to find Alina. The personal and wellbeing care provided to my Mum has been exemplary. Although she is not so dependent for personal care now, she welcomes the company and help around the home she still receives. For me, as her daughter, I appreciate that I can rely on the care of the Alina team which, in turn, frees up my personal time.

I usually visit my Mum later in the day after her visits and I can honestly say she is always a happier person for the interaction with her carer. Well done Lancing Alina.

Reply from Ian Day, Registered Manager at Alina Homecare Lancing

Thank you so much for your kind review, Karen. We are delighted to hear how much your Mum enjoys the carer visits and that she is a happier person for them - we hope we can continue to put a smile on her face for a long time to come!

Overall Experience
We as a family have been using Alina home care for roughly 4 months now for everyday care home visits for mum and dad.After meeting and dealing with Sarah (the boss) of the Lancing branch we choose from 3 options to proceed with Alina.In brief we couldn't be happier with there services.Not once have they let us down on any level or not showed up, they are always easily contactable if we have any questions or concerns and above all the pool of carers that attend to Mum and Dad have been amazing.They are flexible prompt caring helpful and above all must have endless patience to put up with what is always asked of them.
I will and have recommended there services to others and will continue to do so.

Thank you again to Sarah and your team for all your help expertise and support

Overall Experience
I called Alina Homecare to support my very independent mum (aged 92) for a few hours each week. They were wonderful, always willing to do whatever she needed doing and I could see she really appreciated their kindness and care as well as their practical support. She always looked forward to their visits and it gave me peace of mind knowing she was being well looked after.

I can't thank the staff enough and would have no hesitation in recommending Alina Homecare to anyone looking to find someone to support their relative sensitively and with compassion and kindness.

I had the misfortune of breaking my wrist in March. As I live alone I called in Alina Homecare for help. The team were absolutely first class, kind caring always willing to help and go the extra mile to make you feel comfortable. They came every time with a smile and good conversation . Made you feel completely at ease when you are feeling very low.

I would have know hesitation in recommending them and should I ever need them in the future they will be my first port of call. I thank the whole team from the bottom of my heart.

Review from Andrew W (Client / Service User) published on 14 April 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I've been using Alina Home Care for over the last 6 months I asked to not have to many different carers as I have a lot of personal care and Autism. The managers helped me to get a bespoke package of care to fit my needs and made me feel part of this as well, and helped explain things to me. I can't express how much my carers and the manager has helped me and how complex some of the obstacles have been but Alina has and still are to get me through all of them.

I have full time care with Alina and couldn't be happier and would definitely recommend Alina, especially for any loved ones as they are extremely trustworthy and are on top of safeguarding and keeping you safe. Lastly I would just like to say the carers I have go above and beyond every time they come, they make me smile when I'm lonely, and help get me back to normal if I get into a state with my health.

We have used Alina since April 2023, we have found the staff very accommodating and caring, some of them going the extra mile to make my husband's illness more bearable. They have been punctual, always presented well and cheerful and give him time to be able to ask for anything. He has no problem understanding them either. The only comment would be he would like to get up earlier but has a time slot of 8:40 because of requiring two carers.

Overall Experience
I had a hospital appointment and required cover to look after my wife. Within about half an hour of me phoning my request to the Lancing office, I had a reply letting me know it was all covered for the hours requested.
On the day, the carer arrived on time and I was able to go knowing my wife would be well looked after as it was a young lady well known to my wife.
On my return, all had gone well and my wife was in good spirits.

I was most happy with the service we had received.

Reply from Ian Day, Registered Manager at Alina Homecare Lancing

Thank you very much for your lovely review, Peter. We are very happy we have been able to help you with your hospital appointment on this occasion and also with your wife's ongoing care and we would, of course, be happy to do so again should a similar situation happen in the future.

Alina have been amazing, nothing has been too much for them to sort, we have had to change things at short notice, and add things, which have been sorted with no fuss, the whole team have taken to my mum, and the rapport between them all is lovely to witness. I am so grateful for the way Mum has been cared for, the team are all friendly and have been supportive for the family as well.

Overall Experience

I count myself very lucky to have found Alina Homecare. My dad was very reticent about the idea of care and so it was important for me to find people he'd feel happy and relaxed with (especially as he has some very personal care needs). The carers, manager and admin team have done everything they can to make life easier for us. Following our initial phone call, the Team Manager came to Dad's house to meet us and to tell us all about Alina. I could tell he was really listening to Dad and me and genuinely wanting to create the best care plan he could for meeting Dad's needs and wishes. Then the Senior Care Supervisor came to explain to us how the team would be putting the care plan into practice. The Alina Lancing Team are a highly professional and caring team of people. They're committed to treating clients and loved ones with respect, empathy and patience. I can absolutely recommend them to anyone needing care!

Reply from Ian Day, Registered Manager at Alina Homecare Lancing

Thank you so much for your lovely review. It's been a pleasure for myself and our team to get to know your Dad and support him at home, and it's really pleasing to hear that you are happy with the care we have provided.

Overall Experience
Mum was taken ill last year and was very poorly for a couple of months. I stayed with her until she was on the road to recovery but then needed to return to my own home. Alina Homecare was recommended to me by a friend and they have made it possible for me to live my own life confident that Mum has someone competent and caring keeping an eye on her. Mum is a very independent lady but she looks forward to their visits and is happy to have the carers in her home.

Alina Homecare has been willing to change the level of care as needs have changed and I am so glad we found them.

Reply from Ian Day, Registered Manager at Alina Homecare Lancing

Thank you very much for your kind words and lovely review of our service. I have passed your comments on to your mum's regular carers. We are very pleased to hear you and your mum are so happy, and we hope that this will continue for a long time to come.

Review from Susan M (Daughter of Client) published on 3 May 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My mother (94), and another elderly lady (97) living with my mother, had been receiving increasing amounts of home care over the last 4+ years until recently when they both moved into residential care. From the very first conversation with Alina Homecare I was confident that their excellent reviews were justified. Staff were very caring yet professional, both to mother and myself. It was easy to contact and communicate with Alina Homecare and they made every effort to provide additional hours as needs increased. There were many tears all round when my mother needed additional care that could not be provided at home. I would thoroughly recommend Alina Homecare. Many thanks to everyone.

Overall Experience

My parents have used Alina Homecare Lancing for several years. When my mother (my dad's main carer) went into hospital on Boxing Day because of a fractured hip, we had to increase the homecare for my father substantially. My mum is now recovering from the hip operation at home and so they have Alina Homecare come in four times a day to do everything from personal care to preparing meals and administering medication. Alina are always professional and kind and willing to fit in with my parents' schedule of hospital visits, my dad's dialysis days, and even my brother's wedding for which they have gone beyond the call of duty. I recommend Alina Homecare Lancing without any hesitation, every one of their carers has been fantastic.

Overall Experience

The manager and his team provide an amazing service for my elderly aunt. I feel confident and reassured that my aunt is extremely well looked after and all her needs attended to. My aunt is always happy and finds her carers warm, friendly and kind. The manager and the team are very approachable and nothing is too much trouble. They use the online system to log details of their visits and have allowed me access to this which is so helpful. I would totally recommend them to anyone looking for extra help with loved ones. I know that my aunt is given all her medications appropriately and that any new health issues are reported to me immediately which is very comforting as I am unable to visit my aunt as often as I would like. Her home is always clean and her clothes and appearance neat and tidy thanks to their diligence. We are very lucky to have them in my aunt's daily life.

I have found Alina Homecare to be a well-managed care company with cheerful and caring staff. Having looked after my mother for over ten years I had no hesitation in employing them for myself when I needed extra support over five years ago. Needless to say, I continue to be impressed with their services and would not hesitate to recommend them.
