Domiciliary

Crossroads is an established domiciliary care provider helping people live independently at home through person-centred care

We focus on the care, support and treatment we give to service users, their family and their carers. We have been helping people in Northern Ireland for almost 40 years.

We seek to take a holistic approach to care, seeing our service users as a whole person, not focusing purely on their symptoms or condition.

Person-centred care supports people to develop the knowledge, skills and confidence they need to more effectively manage and make informed decisions about their own health and health care. It is coordinated and tailored to the needs of the individual. And, crucially, it ensures that service users are always treated with dignity, compassion and respect.
