why choose hca

One of our main focuses is carer consistency – having one or two carers that you get to know well and who in turn better understand your routines and wishes.

Value for money is also a big priority for the team at Home Care Assistance. This means there is more money for you to spend on the things that matter to you!

a word from our clients

We chose Kendall because her fees & charges were very competitive; but most importantly she was like a breath of fresh air. Not staid, rigid & uncompromising like most of the others. A huge thank you to Kendall & all her employees for an excellent job. HCASC has the most prompt telephone response time in the world. I ring; the number barely dials once & they have answered. A very special thank you to Tammy & Tanya who were my Mother’s favourites. With huge appreciation & gratitude.
