Care based on relationships, not rigid schedules.
Home Care in Hove
Carers that get to know your family, not just fill a schedule
Quality home care in Hove begins with relationships, not rushed, impersonal visits. That’s why families like yours rely on Cheriton Homecare for care that feels like family.
Our founder and Registered Manager, Richard Barnett, spent 12 years caring for his own grandfather, and this lived experience shapes everything we do. We understand what your family is going through, and we treat your loved one as a person, not a task.
We adjust our visiting care to how your loved one actually lives, with unhurried visits and carers who take the time to build trust. As a CQC-regulated provider with a close-knit team that knows every family by name, we help older people stay at home with dignity, warmth, and reassurance.

Does your loved one need live-in care or visiting care?
The choice between visiting care and live-in care depends on the level of support your loved one needs to feel safe, settled, and confident at home. We’ll discuss their daily routines and needs to help you make the right decision.
Visiting care may be right for your loved one if…
- They live independently but need help at specific times during the day
- They struggle with daily tasks like washing, dressing, preparing meals, or medication reminders
- Companionship from familiar faces would make life at home feel easier
- You want dependable care without full-time support
Live-in care may be right for your loved one if…
- They need reassurance and assistance throughout the day and evening
- Being alone for long periods no longer feels safe or comfortable
- They struggle with memory loss, frailty, or health challenges
- Your family would feel more at ease knowing someone is always there

Questions about home care? Start here
What makes home care better than a care home for my loved one?
Home care helps your loved one stay in familiar surroundings, surrounded by their own routines, memories, and comforts. Many families find that this supports independence and emotional well-being in ways that residential care facilities cannot.
Is home care regulated in the UK?
Yes, Cheriton Homecare is regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC), upholding the highest standards of safety, consistency, and quality of care.
How quickly can I arrange home care?
We’re often able to arrange care quickly depending on your loved one’s needs. Once you contact us, we’ll talk through your needs and match them with a carer as quickly as possible.
Will my loved one have the same carer for every visit?
Yes, we aim to keep your loved one with the same carers wherever possible. Familiar faces build trust and make each visit more comfortable.
