About Dovida 

Enhance your patients’ quality of life by recommending person-centred home care. 

Who we are

As a healthcare professional, you understand that the best patient outcomes often depend on consistent, quality care at home.

At Dovida, we believe that home care should empower your patients to live the lives they want, in the comfort of their own home. 

With a network of 25 local offices around Ireland, Dovida is the largest provider of home care services in the country.

We employ 4,000 skilled, compassionate caregivers, who provide a wide range of quality home care services to 8,000 clients.

We recognise that no two people are the same and shape our care to best match each person’s interests, values, and personality.

This is why we carefully match our caregivers to ensure that we deliver more than home care – we create meaningful connections between people.

Together with our clients, their families, and their care circles, we create care that is centred around the individual.

This holistic approach creates a Circle of Care that puts our client at the heart of the care they receive.

When you refer to Dovida, you’re connecting your patients with caregivers who become genuine partners in their care journey. 

Why Dovida – Our Care Philosophy  

Discover how our person-centred approach empowers your patients to live their life, their way. 

What makes Dovida different from other home care providers?  

At Dovida, our care is focused on our clients. We change our schedule to fit clients’ needs, and not the other way around.

Our person-centred approach means that we prioritise our clients’ personal connection with their caregivers over everything else, making sure they feel supported, uplifted, and empowered to live their life, their way.  

What types of care do you offer?  

We provide a range of care services including Live-in Care and home care visits for older people, people living with disability, and for specific illnesses like Alzheimer’s or arthritis. Take a look at our services page to find out more.  

How do you select and train your caregivers?  

Our caregivers are carefully selected based on their life experiences, skills and personalities. We choose caregivers that are compassionate and want to help older people to remain independent at home.

All of our caregivers are directly employed by Dovida and they undergo a robust onboarding training program delivered by our skilled staff which enables them to provide person-centred care. Many also receive specialised training in dementia and palliative care.

Can my patients choose their caregiver?  

Yes, we carefully match caregivers with our clients based on their interests, preferences, and care needs. This ensures caregivers will suit their clients, and they are likely to build a genuine connection with them.
 
Our reliable caregivers support independence and empower clients to make their own choices, and respect their individuality, which fosters deeper connections.

Our Care Management team can adapt our clients’ services on request.
