At Hamill Homecare, we provide home care across Stirling, helping adults aged 16 and over to live safely and comfortably in their own homes.
We're an independent, family-run home care agency, founded in 2016 by Dr Louise Hamill and graded Excellent by the Care Inspectorate.

Care should never be rushed and we don’t believe in cutting corners. That’s why all our visits have minimum durations: personal care visits are a minimum of 45 minutes, respite care is a minimum of 4 hours per week, and overnight care runs from 10pm to 7am. Our rate is starting from £39.50 per hour, and that includes thoughtful, unhurried care that focuses on each person’s overall wellbeing – not just a checklist of tasks.
How Home Care in Stirling works:
Initial Consultation and Assessment
Every journey begins with a thorough consultation. We take the time to meet with you and your family to understand your needs, routines, preferences, and expectations. This helps us build a clear picture of what kind of support is needed.
Personalised Care Planning
Following the assessment, we create a tailored care plan for you. The plan outlines exactly what care will be provided, when, and by whom. It is flexible and reviewed regularly to ensure it stays relevant as needs change.
Consistent Care Team
You'll be matched with a small team of carers who will get to know you and your preferences.
Regular Reviews
We'll check in regularly to ensure your practical support continues to meet your needs.

Using SDS Option 2: You are given an assessed budget by Stirling Council and have the freedom to choose your own care company. You may need to pay a ‘top up’ to meet our costs.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you cover all of Stirling?
Yes. We provide home care across the whole of Stirling.
How much does home care cost in Stirling?
Our rate starts from £39.50 per hour. The total cost depends on how many hours of care you need each week. For example, 10 hours of care a week costs £395.
Can I use Stirling Council funding?
Yes, if Stirling Council assesses you as needing care. Through Self-Directed Support (SDS) Option 2, you can put your Council budget towards your care with us and pay any remaining balance yourself. To start, contact Stirling Council’s social work department to arrange an assessment of your care needs.
Will I see the same carers?
