Loneliness is the subjective sense of unmet or imbalanced social needs, shaped by culture and living conditions, and can be social (lack of contact) or emotional (absence of close, trusting relationships). In older people, it often follows partner or role loss or reduced mobility or participation and is associated with emotional pain, lowered self-worth and poorer health and quality of life. This study aimed to explore patients\u2019 experiences of loneliness while living alone and receiving home care. Methods: Twelve older patients (aged 74\u201398 years) participated in in-depth interviews, which were analysed using phenomenological-hermeneutical analysis in line with Lindseth and Norberg\u2019s recommendations. Results: The results are presented under the following themes: (I) An overwhelming and painful feeling, (II) A presence without connection, and (III) Experiencing a sense of alienation. Conclusions: This study describes complex feelings of loneliness for the majority of participants, often worsened by poor mobility and shrinking social networks. From the patient perspective, good home care goes beyond practical and medical tasks: patients need to be treated as whole persons, with respect and understanding, to alleviate loneliness. Staffing stability, predictable visiting times, time for conversation, and small acts of kindness are central to well-being and the prevention of loneliness. Municipal healthcare should prioritize relationship-building, communication skills, and organizational solutions that enable continuity and flexibility. Focusing on the patient perspective in planning and evaluation will create better targeted interventions and support dignified ageing.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/nursrep16070230","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,2]],"date-time":"2026-07-02T10:04:44Z","timestamp":1782986684000},"page":"230","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Loneliness Among Older Adults Receiving Home Care: A Phenomenological-Hermeneutical Study"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"16","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0006-3790-5622","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Birgit","family":"Hauger","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Health and Nursing Sciences, Faculty of Social and Health Sciences, University of Inland Norway, 2406 Elverum, Norway"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4760-2055","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Randi","family":"Martinsen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Health and Nursing Sciences, Faculty of Social and Health Sciences, University of Inland Norway, 2406 Elverum, Norway"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6876-9076","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Knut","family":"Hestad","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Health and Nursing Sciences, Faculty of Social and Health Sciences, University of Inland Norway, 2406 Elverum, Norway"},{"name":"Department of Research and Innovation, Innlandet Hospital Trust, P.O.
