About Us

Welcome to Athlone Care, your trusted provider of high-quality home care services in the Dartford area. We understand how important it is to remain independent and comfortable in familiar surroundings, which is why we deliver compassionate, person-centred care directly to your own home.

Our tailored services, starting from just £29.92 per hour, are designed to support adults of all ages, with specialist expertise in dementia, learning disabilities, challenging behaviour, physical disabilities, mental health, complex conditions, and more. Whether you require hourly visits, overnight support, live-in care, companionship, personal care, or palliative care, our experienced team is here to help.

At Athlone Care, we celebrate diversity and respect individual preferences, providing cultural support, LGBTQ+ friendly carers, and attention to dietary needs. Our staff are happy to assist with pet care, domestic help, shopping, meal preparation, medication, and escorted outings in the community. Two carers can also attend visits when required, ensuring safety and peace of mind.

We accept various funding options, including self-funding, Local Authority, and NHS Continuing Healthcare (CHC). Our service reflects the highest professional standards, delivered with warmth, respect, and dignity.
