Home Care in Cirencester

We know families often compare home care agencies and residential homes, so we’re here to help you make sense of the options available and to help you understand the cost of care. We can provide all the detailed information you need about our range of services on offer.

Are you thinking about options like residential care homes or nursing care? Then talk to us about how our type of care services – home care – might offer you a better solution, keeping you and your loved ones comfortable at home.

We also offer transparent advice about how personalised care can benefit you, from explaining care ratings and the care types available to you, along with answering any questions you may have.

Choosing the correct type of personalised home care that comes with high standards can feel overwhelming, and we understand that. We are here to listen, guide, and support you through your options for elderly care in the area – and always with a friendly voice and a cup of tea if needed!

So, contact us today at our phone number. Whether you need support right now or you’re just planning ahead, we’d love to talk about how we can help you or your loved one.

Alongside Cirencester, our care company also supports clients in:

• South Cerney
• Tetbury
• Fairford
• Siddington
• Other nearby towns and villages across the Cotswolds and Gloucestershire

We don’t just say we offer person-centred care – we live and breathe it. At Home Instead, creating a tailored care plan means getting to know your loved one as a whole person, not just a list of care needs.

Getting to Know You

Before any care begins, one of our friendly team members will visit your own home for a relaxed chat. We’ll take time to learn about:

• Favourite hobbies and interests
• Daily routines – what mornings and evenings normally look like
• Food preferences, special diets, and allergies
• Social circles and community links (like church groups or clubs)
• Mobility needs, memory concerns, and long-term health goals

We also listen carefully to the primary caregiver and wider family members, so everyone’s voice is heard.

Building the Bespoke Care Plan

From there, we design a care package that fits around everyday life. For example:

• If your mum loves Roman history, we’ll accompany her on an outing to the Corinium Museum.
• If Dad prefers his Charter Market visit exactly on a Monday morning, we’ll make sure that’s part of the routine.
• For someone with special needs or physical disability, we’ll arrange the support services and aids to make daily life easier.

This is older person care that keeps dignity, comfort, and independence at the heart of our service.

Adapting as Life Changes

Life doesn’t stay the same, and neither should care. That’s why we regularly review each care plan and check in with both the person receiving care and their loved ones. If someone’s needs grow – say, from hourly care to live-in care services, or from companionship to palliative care – we’ll adjust things seamlessly.

We also keep in close contact with the Care Quality Commission guidelines, ensuring our care evolves with the highest standards in mind.

When you’re inviting someone into your own home to care for a loved one, trust is everything. At Home Instead, we take safeguarding extremely seriously and have strict procedures in place to make sure every care assistant and live-in carer is safe, reliable, and fully prepared to deliver the highest quality care.

Rigorous Recruitment Process

✔️ We never rush when it comes to hiring. Each member of our dedicated team goes through a careful selection process, which includes:

✔️ Enhanced DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service) checks ✔️ Background checks for employment history and references ✔️ In-depth interviews to understand values, experience, and attitude ✔️ Matching carers to clients based on personality, interests, and skills

We only hire people we’d trust to care for our own family members.

A Culture of Openness and Accountability

We also like to help create a culture where our carers, clients, and primary caregivers feel comfortable raising concerns. Our office team is always available to respond quickly and with care.

Once on board, our staff members complete full safeguarding training to give you excellent care, covering things like:

• Recognising signs of neglect or abuse
• Reporting procedures and whistleblowing
• Safe moving and handling
• Respecting your privacy, dignity, and individual rights
• Mental capacity and end-of-life care support

And that’s just the start. We provide continuous staff training to make sure every carer stays up to date with best practices, CQC standards, and the needs of older people or those with special needs.

✔️ Tailored care plans
✔️ Warm, compassionate carers
✔️ Good CQC Rating for peace of mind
✔️ Regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC)
✔️ Local knowledge of the Cirencester and Cotswolds area
✔️ Rated highly for quality of care and exceptional service

We understand that considering home care is a significant decision, and the cost of care is an essential factor in your planning. That is why one of our priorities is to provide transparent and flexible care options tailored to your specific needs without compromising on the quality of service.

As a result, dduring your initial consultation, we will work closely with you and your family to:

• Understand your specific needs and the level of support required.
• Design a bespoke care package that fits your unique situation.
• Explain the structure of our fees clearly, ensuring you have all the information needed to make an informed decision-making process.

While we do not discuss specific figures here, we offer guidance on options to manage your care expenses. For those considering full-time support, we can help you evaluate live-in care costs against other types of care. We encourage you to get in touch with our local team for a personal discussion about how our services can be made affordable for your long-term care needs.

We believe the truest measure of our quality of care is the feedback we receive from the individuals we support and their families. Our relationship-led approach to care is designed to ensure exceptional personal outcomes for every client in Cirencester.

We are proud of our consistently high homecare review score for our group, which reflects our commitment to excellence, reliability, and the compassionate work of our entire care team and support workers.
