About Us
LQS Healthcare Services Ltd
LQS Healthcare Services Ltd is an independent home care and community support provider based in West Sussex, United Kingdom. The organisation focuses on supporting independent living by providing professional, person-centred care to adults in their own homes, specialising in elderly care, dementia, and complex clinical needs.
Who We Are
LQS Healthcare Services operates as a regional domiciliary care agency, primarily functioning across Worthing, Lancing, and the surrounding areas of West Sussex.
Headquartered in Worthing (Chapel House), the organisation is known for its "forward-thinking" approach to community care. Their model is built on empowering individuals—particularly the elderly and those with life-limiting conditions—to remain in familiar surroundings rather than moving into residential facilities. They utilise a team of vetted healthcare workers and carers who are trained to provide high-quality, personalised support that adapts to the client’s changing health status.
They pride themselves on a person-centred philosophy, ensuring that the preferences and dignity of the client are at the forefront of every care intervention.
What We Do
Domiciliary (Home) Care
Providing hourly visits to assist with "Activities of Daily Living" (ADLs), such as washing, dressing, medication management, and meal preparation.
Live-in Care
Offering 24/7 round-the-clock support where a dedicated carer lives in the client’s home, providing a consistent and safe alternative to a nursing home.
Specialised Dementia & Alzheimer’s Care
Delivering expert support for individuals with cognitive decline, focusing on safety, memory engagement, and reducing anxiety through familiar routines.
Palliative & End-of-Life Care
Providing compassionate medical and emotional support for patients in the final stages of illness, focusing on pain management and comfort in a home setting.
Respite Care & Night Services
Offering temporary relief for family caregivers through "Sitting-in" services, "Sleep-in" nights, or "Waking nights" to ensure the client is safe while the primary carer rests.
Companionship & Social Support
Assisting with community engagement, including accompanying clients to doctor or dentist appointments, shopping, and socialising to combat isolation.
Approach & Values
LQS Healthcare Services focuses on Compassion, Integrity, and Empowerment.
They prioritise flexibility and communication, with a system where daily care reports are reviewed by the office and followed up with phone calls to ensure families are informed, and the care plan remains effective. Their approach is designed to be relationship-based, matching carers with clients based on both clinical needs and personality to foster a "community of caregivers."
A strong emphasis is placed on "Supporting Independence," helping clients maintain control over their lives even when facing physical or cognitive challenges.
Industry Role
LQS Healthcare Services plays a pivotal role in the West Sussex social care market, acting as a reliable partner for local families and health commissioners.
As a CQC-rated "Good" provider, the organisation contributes to the local health economy by reducing the pressure on NHS hospitals through effective reablement and post-hospital discharge support. They act as a strategic choice for families seeking private home care solutions that meet rigorous national standards of safety and clinical governance.
They offer a highly responsive and vetted workforce, making them a trusted local option for high-quality care that ranges from simple companionship to high-dependency medical support.
