Lifestyle Support

The Hibernia care team can help clients to confront everyday obstacles to live an independent life.

Lifestyle Support

It may be the case that as a result of illness, injury or simply growing older, a person can face challenges to keeping active and engaged on a mental and physical level.

What our lifestyle support team does

Employing quality care, the team at Hibernia support clients to overcome their lifestyle difficulties, stay independent, and lead meaningful lives on their own terms.

Who do we provide this service to?

Hibernia offers the lifestyle support to clients or their families as an add-on option to our home, respite, disability or palliative care packages or on an individual basis.

If you or your loved one require more home care support than HSE funding will allow, Hibernia offers options for supplemental private in-home care. Contact us to find out more about our rates and the tax relief available.

As an add-on option to our Lifestyle Support service, our clients can avail of palliative care, private home care services or disability care.

HSE-funded home care

Hibernia provides care to HSE-funded service users all across Dublin. This HSE scheme aims to support people to live at home for as long as possible and provides support with activities of daily living based on individual needs.

The HSE Home Support Service is free, and you don’t need a medical card to apply. The service is available to those aged 65 or over and to those with disabilities under the age of 65.

Privately-funded home care

If you don’t qualify for HSE funded home care or you require additional care, we offer home care on a private basis to you or your loved one at competitive rates.

We provide care on a 7-day basis, including overnight care based on an assessment of your needs that we co-develop with you. We’ll build a package to support you, maintain your independence and offer high quality cost-effective care at home.

Tax relief is available at the payer’s marginal rate of either 20% or 40%.

Contact us for a no-obligation chat about home care options and packages.

Tax relief on payments for home care

Tax Relief on fees for home care are available to service users and their immediate families (spouses, civil partners, children).

The tax relief is available at the highest marginal rate payable by the person who pays for the home care service.

When claiming tax relief for home care costs, you can claim at your highest tax rate but on the lower of these two figures:

The actual cost you pay for home care
The maximum deduction of €75,000
