“Home Instead provide at home support to my 93 year old mother. Thanks to the support of carers my mother has been able to remain in her own home. The carers we have seen are very supportive and I would rate Jo her main carer extremely highly. She is very proactive and has become a good professional friend to mum.” – P. Street.
Our Experienced Sandhurst Care Team
We have a seasoned team with lots of fresh ideas and ouddles of warmth. Meet a few care pros below.
Meet Leonie
Leonie has worked at Home Instead for the last six years, covering the Bracknell and Ascot areas. During that time, her work has included personal care, meal preparation, shopping, housekeeping, medication administration, companionship, assistance with social outings, and tasks like gardening.
“This role is perfect for me as it is very varied, and no two days are the same. The bonds I’ve built with clients over time are strong, and they know my colleagues and I are reliable, trustworthy, and responsible in all we do for them. These bonds mean a lot to me, and seeing clients flourish with our support is very special.
It feels like a privilege to encourage my clients to take advantage of the variety of activities and places to go in and around Bracknell. From day centres to coffee shops, high street shopping to churches and activity centres, it’s all available to everyone, and getting to know new people can make a big difference in someone’s life. It’s great to be a part of that.”
Meet Jen
Jen helps us provide personalised home care services in the area, including household chores and personal care, such as bathing, dressing, and grooming, to ensure comfort and dignity. She also prepares delicious and nutritious meals tailored to individual dietary requirements and preferences.
Jen has a great reputation among her clients. Her friendly and helpful demeanour gives them the confidence to be as mobile and independent as they can be. More than that she has become a professional friend. Someone they can rely on and feel comforted by.
“I focus on emotional support and wellbeing, providing companionship. As well as personal care, medication, and meal prep.
I love building relationships and knowing I am of help emotionally to clients, listening, and providing a genuinely caring and calm environment where a person feels comfortable. Also, I am a very practical person, supporting individual needs.
I love working in the area and feeling part of a caring team, which allows individuals to stay feeling dignified, independent and happy in their own homes.”
How We Support Sandhurst’s Elderly Community
Sandhurst has a growing population because of its commuter belt connections to London. But as with most UK towns and cities its population of over 50s is struggling to receive the full social care it needs.
Localised home care is the answer, and to deliver it and maintain community connections, we work closely with community partners, organisations, GPs and care homes (like Renaissance Sandhurst) who understand our diverse clients’ needs.
Is Home Care Better Than Social Care?
Private home care can lessen the reliance on underfunded social care and offer more comprehensive services promptly. It can also provide holistic support, such as community transportation, housekeeping, and additional services, all within a flexible monthly package that meets the diverse needs of seniors.
Is Home Care Better Than a Care Home?
If your loved one has some mobility, faculty and function, their emotional and mental well-being would be much better supported at home. Here, they can retain links to their community, friends and neighbours. We have found that many seniors’ well-being vastly improves from that approach.
Can Home Care Support Couples? And Pets?
Yes. Couple home care is an excellent option for keeping Mum and Dad together longer. In this instance, we will tailor the support, so each individual gets exactly what they need.
We can also help you look after Mum and Dad’s pets.
Choosing Your Sandhurst Home Care Services
Whether you need long-term assistance or just a few hours a week to support your parents, our home care services in Sandhurst can offer:
- Home help, housekeeping, and meal preparation

Determining which services are necessary, when to use them, and for how long depends on your parents’ unique needs. So, how can you make that choice? It’s simple: reach out to Home Instead Sandhurst for expert guidance. We’ll arrange a visit to your home to meet your parents and discuss the potential care options that may suit both short-term and long-term needs. Afterwards, you can take some time to talk together about what feels best for your family.
The Benefits of Sandhurst Home Care Services with Home Instead
Our friendly home care focuses on
- Promoting independence. We never oversell services to keep seniors from living their best lives.
- Providing social connections. We carefully match clients and care pros for the best fit. We also encourage community participation through day centres and local events.
- Encouraging physical exercise. We support mobility on all levels for our seniors by providing at-home activities or organising physiotherapy.
- Delivering excellence in nutrition and hydration. We create balanced meals that encourage the enjoyment of eating well.
- Reducing and preventing falls in the home. We design fall prevention plans for all clients.
- Minimising hospital admissions and re-admission. We work with GPs and medical teams to monitor and highlight symptoms or condition changes.
- Decreasing UTIs and chest infections. We spot and remedy problems before they become issues.
How Much Does Sandhurst Home Care Cost? And Can You Get Funding?
Your local authority may offer non-residential care funding to those eligible, to cover partial costs. So yes, funding is potentially available. Their adult care information should guide you through the means-tested eligibility process.
So, how much does Home Instead home care cost? Home care costs depend entirely on your needs, which varies widely from person to person. But often, people don’t need full-time care initially; they might just need a couple of hours every other week for household chores, shopping trips, or a trip out for cake and coffee. In which case you’ll likely spend as little as £150 a month.
But the value is so much more than that. Older people often face isolation and loneliness. With proper home care from Home Instead, not only are their physical needs met, but we also work hard to support them emotionally for better mental health. This is where seniors get to truly live their best life.
Will You Be Updated on Mum and Dad’s Care?
Absolutely. Every client and their family have access to an online client portal, which provides access to care records and unrivalled support. Your care pros are also accessible by text or WhatsApp, meaning you can ask questions as and when they come to you. We’ll also send you regular updates.
