Companionship Cheshunt

Life can be busy and overwhelming from time to time, which is why it’s so important to have a trusted companion by your side. That’s where Home Instead comes in. 

At Home Instead Cheshunt, we understand that people would always rather be in familiar surroundings than in a hospice or residential care home. That’s why all our services are based in the client’s home.

We keep our communities of Cuffley, Cheshunt, Harlow & the surrounding areas connected with loved ones by providing companionship care services using a team of kind and compassionate care professionals. 

We want to give you peace of mind knowing that there is a dedicated carer you can count on to provide companionship and spend quality time with you or a loved one.

Companionship can improve a person’s mental health, quality of life and social life. All Home Instead care professionals are committed to providing compassionate and personalised companionship services for vulnerable people in their own homes.

What makes Home Instead Cheshunt unique is that we provide compassionate care visits for a minimum of 1 hour.
