About Aemilius Care
Aemilius Care is a small, family-run company employing local staff to support local people. Person-centred care is at the heart of everything we do. Our focus is on delivering high-quality, individualised support that helps people remain comfortable, confident, and independent in their own homes.
We work closely with families, listening to their insights, concerns, and knowledge of their loved one’s likes and dislikes. This helps us shape truly tailored care that feels familiar, respectful, and meaningful.
Our approach ensures every client receives outstanding, compassionate support that promotes dignity, wellbeing, and peace of mind. Aemilius Care is not just another care company — we are a team that genuinely cares for both our clients and our staff.

Frequently Asked Questions
What types of care do you provide?
We offer two main services: Home Care and Complex Care. Home Care supports daily routines — such as washing, dressing, meals, medication prompts, and companionship. Complex Care offers one-to-one specialist support for people living with long-term conditions, mobility challenges, or those needing palliative or end-of-life care. Every plan is personalised to each individual.
How quickly can care begin?
Most care packages can start within a few days, depending on your needs. We begin with a free home visit to understand your circumstances, preferences, and routines. From there, we create a tailored care plan and arrange a start date that works for you and your family.
Are your carers trained and DBS checked?
Yes. All Aemilius Care carers are fully DBS checked, insured, and receive ongoing training in areas such as safeguarding, medication support, personal care, and specialist complex care needs. We only hire people who demonstrate genuine warmth, compassion, and professionalism
Can I choose the times of my visits?
Absolutely. We build your care around your routine — not the other way around.
We offer morning, lunch, and evening visits, seven days a week, and can adjust visit times as your needs change.
Do you support people with complex medical or mobility needs?
Yes. Our Complex Care service provides specialist one-to-one support for individuals living with neurological conditions, long-term illnesses, injury recovery, dementia, learning disabilities, or palliative care requirements. We work closely with families and healthcare professionals to ensure safety, comfort, and continuity.
How far do you travel for home care?
We provide care across Okehampton and a 15-mile radius, supporting nearby villages and local communities. This helps us keep visits reliable, punctual, and consistent — which families tell us makes a big difference.
How do you match carers with clients?
We take time to learn about the person receiving care — their personality, routines, preferences, and any specialist needs. We then match them with a carer who suits their requirements and helps them feel relaxed and comfortable. Many families tell us these matches feel more like long-term companionship than traditional support.
