Funding & Fees

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 short 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 cost 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 Corinne T (Daughter of Client) published on 26 August 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have a parent of 93 with health problems & dementia. I was recommended to use Alina Homecare by a person locally. We are so lucky to have them. They provide daily support, without which we would be in serious trouble. The kindness they have shown has been amazing. When my mother fell badly, the Alina
lady accompanied her to hospital, & stayed for hours by my mother's side, offering reassurance.
The Alina team report daily to me via an app, which is very useful. Also they can drive her into the village & help with shopping. They also help her with personal care. I would definitely recommend them.

Our family are extremely grateful to Alina for their support in May which enabled my dad to attend some important family events. In addition to providing their normal morning and evening care we asked them to assist us with getting dad to a milestone birthday party and his grandsons wedding. Alina were
at Dads side for both events, providing attentive but discreet care, meaning as a family we were able to relax and enjoy the events. Most importantly Dad had a wonderful time. Some wonderful family memories were created thanks to the support we received from Alina.

Review from Mark H (Son of Client) published on 29 April 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We were lucky enough to have Alina Homecare as mum's carers for two months before she was placed into a care home. From the moment we met the manager the standard of homecare went up and this business sets the standard for homecare (we have experienced two others previously which were poor). The manager
is very clear at the initial engagement in terms of what you can expect and she leads the team brilliantly to do that. My mum has mixed dementia and needs a great deal of skill to manage her care, especially in terms of personal hygiene and medication. Unlike other care companies, mum had only two carers to focus on (both with the same name) which made a huge difference. Both of them were first class with mum as she can be difficult, rude and challenging. They dealt with her brilliantly and their attention to detail was really impressive. They kept us informed as well if mum was not co-operative with meals or medication for example.
Highly recommend Alina Homecare...first class care company.

Review from Brian G (Husband of Client) published on 24 March 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The carers are always cheerful, polite and willing to carry out whatever tasks are requested.
They engage with my wife and encourage her as well as assisting her mobility when required to do so.
They suggest ways of doing things which we have not thought of.
My wife has been in hospital since the
end of January to the present but I have been happy to continue their presence as they give great support to me by doing the day to day jobs around the house. This allows me to to go shopping, visit my wife in hospital and frees me from those tasks which would prove tiring and inconvenient under the present circumstances.
Reply from kelly Stevenson, Registered Care Manager at Alina Homecare Dorchester & Weymouth

Dear Brian, Thankyou for your kind words and feedback, Both office and care staff take their duties very seriously and it is such a privilege to earn trust and respect of the clients and their families. We look forward to providing support and solutions for your wife as you continue your journey with us by her side.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The care provided although only for a short time was exceptional. From the first meeting to providing end-of-life care they went above and beyond. We had no worries about them being in the house and my mother-in-law felt safe and happy that the carer was warm friendly and fun. They supported us as a
family at the end and we really appreciated it.
