We are now Dovida: New Name, Same Quality Care
You used to know us as Home Instead Ireland, but now you can call us Dovida.
For more than 20 years throughout Ireland, we have been your trusted partner, proudly delivering the highest quality home care to ageing adults in your communities. Our mission has always been to enhance the lives of ageing adults and their families, by providing personalised, relationship-based care at home.
Dovida and Home Instead have decided to amicably end our affiliation but continue to support one another’s mission to provide high quality care to ageing adults at home.
Dovida will continue to serve your communities under a new name, building on our company’s legacy with the same commitment to excellence and compassion, the same faces you have come to know, and the same high quality care that our clients, their families, our network and caregivers have come to rely on.
To further grow our vision for this next chapter, we have introduced our ‘Circle of Care’, which renews our commitment to person-centred care by placing the individual at the heart of a holistic support system uniting families, our skilled caregivers, our support teams, and the wider healthcare community.
We now present: Dovida. Your Life, Your Way.
Inspired by the Latin words for Home (Domus) and Life (Vita), our new name ‘Dovida’ symbolises the very core of our mission and our commitment to put individuals at the centre of everything we do; by helping people live the life they want in the comfort of their own home for as long as possible.
“Our new name celebrates both where we come from and where we’re headed,” says Shane Jennings, Chief Executive Officer, Dovida Ireland. “At Dovida, we believe that recognising each of our clients’ uniqueness is key to providing the highest quality of care.”
Our renewed mission here at Dovida is to support, empower, and uplift people by putting them at the heart of every decision we make. Our caregivers approach people with curiosity and compassion, eager to understand not just their care needs, but also their interests, values, and personality.
Dovida’s promise is simple: together with our clients, their families, and their care circles, we create care centred around the individual. We focus every moment on forming relationships that empower our clients and help them to do the things they choose to do, because we don’t just want to add years to their life – we want to add life to their years.
