Personal Care

Personal care is hands-on, non-medical help with everyday routines such as bathing, dressing, grooming and using the toilet, so a person can stay comfortable and keep their dignity at home. Independent Providers on Safety Net Home Care offer it at their own rates.

These are non-medical support services. Safety Net Home Care is a platform, not a care provider. In an emergency, call 911.

What does a visit usually include?

• Help with bathing, showering and washing
• Help with dressing and choosing clothes
• Grooming, such as brushing hair and teeth, and shaving
• Help getting to and from the toilet, and with continence products
• Help moving between bed, chair and bathroom, where the Independent Provider has agreed it is safe
• Following the routines and preferences the person has shared

Who is it for?

Personal care suits adults who find daily routines tiring or hard, and families who want a steady, respectful helper so a parent or partner can keep living at home.

What is not included?

Personal care does not include nursing, wound care, injections, giving medication, or any other medical task. Independent Providers do not diagnose or give medical advice. For health questions, speak with a doctor, nurse or pharmacist.

What does it cost?

Each Independent Provider sets their own hourly rate, so prices vary. When you book, you see the Independent Provider's rate and the Safety Net Home Care platform fee as two separate lines before you pay. Your card is held when you send a request, and it is charged only if the Independent Provider accepts.

How do I arrange it?

1. Browse Independent Provider profiles in the directory, or answer a few questions in Find Care.
2. Choose who to contact and send a booking request for the date and time you want.
3. The Independent Provider accepts, declines or suggests another time. They choose freely.
4. Once they accept, you can message them to agree the details before the visit.
