Domiciliary visit refers to a visit made by a professional to someone's home, usually for medical reasons. Some synonyms for domiciliary visit include home visit, house call, in-home consultation, and mobile service. These terms all refer to the same practice of having a professional come directly to the patient's residence instead of requiring them to go to a hospital or clinic. Domiciliary visits are common in many branches of healthcare, including nursing, physical therapy, and veterinary medicine. They provide a convenient way for patients to receive the care they need without leaving their homes, which can be particularly beneficial for elderly or disabled individuals.
