Get in touch Why Home Instead Dementia Care may be right for you
Living with dementia can make familiar surroundings increasingly important for maintaining a sense of security and independence. Our experienced Care Professionals understand how maintaining routines in the home environment can significantly reduce anxiety and confusion. We take time to learn about your loved one’s life history, preferences and interests, creating a personalised care plan that evolves alongside their changing needs. This approach allows us to provide dignified support that respects their individuality, whether that’s assistance with daily tasks, medication reminders, or simply providing meaningful companionship.

Care from the team who support my uncle has been outstanding; he is living with dementia, and the respect, compassion and dignity he is shown is above and beyond. Without a shadow of a doubt, they’ve kept him safe in his home for much longer than we expected after his diagnosis.
Granddaughter of Client
The Frodsham Home Instead team looked after my father for several years, enabling him to stay in his much-loved own home. Every team member was professional, thoughtful and, importantly, great fun. They really took the time to get to know Dad, his likes and dislikes and treated him with great care and respect. Dad received up to five visits a day and always looked forward to them. The team inspired huge confidence in us as a family.
Daughter of Client
After much soul searching, we decided we needed care for my dad; as my mum was unwell too. We interviewed many care providers and from the moment we met Home Instead we knew they were right for us. The team professionally cared for my dad until the end and then my mum again until she was reunited with my dad. The team became part of our parents’ daily routine and were invaluable to our wider family support, giving our family peace of mind.
Daughter of Client
The care and support given to mum by Home Instead Frodsham was second to none. The carers treated mum with kindness and understanding whether it was making a cup of tea or helping her get washed and dressed. Mum looked forward to the visits and loved sharing her childhood memories.
Son of Client
The high standards of personal care, the impressive punctuality of the visits, the updated notes on the website after each visit for family controlled access, and the happiness that I can see Mum gets from the consideration and support that she is receiving have led to the family decision that we will continue with the services of Home Instead as long as Mum remains in the family home. A top-class service, thank you.
Son of Client
Home Instead cared for my father for several years as he became less able to do things for himself. Without exception, the carers were wonderful, willing, trustworthy, hard-working and caring people. He came to look at them as friends and their visits were a big part of his day. I can’t recommend them highly enough. They made it possible for Dad to stay in his own home until a week before he passed away. I will always be grateful to them.
Daughter of Client
The home care support given by the caregivers at Home Instead is fabulous. They are reliable and punctual. They are patient and supportive. Living a fair distance away, I know that my grandfather and his partner are in safe hands and also that the caregivers will contact me should there be any concerns or questions. I have been really impressed with their attention to detail, seeking opinions from district nurses and community occupational therapists, to ensure that they are supported well in their own home. Nothing seems too much trouble.
Great Grandson of Client
The caregivers from Home Instead have been caring for my mum for several years as her health has deteriorated and during the last days of her life. She died at home as was her wish and this would not have been possible without the dedication of the care staff. During the last weeks of her life, they did everything they could to keep her at home and comfortable, and particularly in the last week they not only cared for my mum but were an invaluable support for myself and my family.
Daughter of Client
My father-in-law is 97, lost his wife in early April and he suffers from dementia, hearing loss and limited vision – not an easy time for any of us. I think it would be impossible for him to continue to live independently without the support he gets from Home Instead. The caregivers do go above and beyond – attending his wife’s funeral, helping sort out clothes and personal effects without upsetting him, taking him on little outings, finding someone to service the vacuum cleaner!

- Will my loved one have to give up their pet now they have been diagnosed with dementia?
When someone is diagnosed with dementia, it is often assumed that keeping their beloved pet is impossible. This is not necessarily the case. Studies have shown that pets have actually been known to increase the health of those with dementia while providing them with a friend to spend their time with. Owning a cute and cuddly companion can even be an essential part of their daily routine. Before jumping to any conclusions, it may be beneficial to review all of your options when it comes to this important decision.
An unexpected diagnosis can be frightening or difficult, and some might discover that they want their pet to remain by their side. After considering the following factors, you may find that there are other alternatives to immediately giving up a best friend.
Discover More - How can I help my loved one when they have dementia?
For people living with dementia and Alzheimer’s, lack of stimulation and boredom can be one of the most frustrating things. It’s important to provide activities that engage and bring pleasure to people living with Alzheimer’s and dementia.
Stimulating activities can help keep them in high spirits and prevent them from developing depression, whilst lessening anxiety and irritability.
Activities should aim to:
- Stir memories and allow them to reminisce about their life
- Foster emotional connections with others – contact with others is vital
- Encourage self-expression
- Make them feel more engaged with life
- Help them feel productive
- My loved one with Dementia has begun to develop aggressive behaviour, can you give me any advice?
If you have a relative with dementia – perhaps you are their carer – you may be aware that at some point you might find yourself dealing with aggressive behaviour from them. This is a prospect that many people fear, but there are ways to cope with such challenging behaviours.
Discover More - Are there warning signs that I or my loved one are getting dementia?
The early stages of dementia are not always obvious, and symptoms and problems might develop slowly. To add to these difficulties, early signs of Alzheimer’s and dementia are frequently easy to dismiss as a normal sign of ageing. However, if you know what to look out for, you can keep an eye on yourself and your loved ones and identify symptoms early. This will allow you to get the medical advice early on and work out care ahead of time.
Discover More - This is my loved ones first Christmas after being diagnosed with dementia, is there any advice you can give?
For a person with dementia, Christmas poses challenges that include disruption to a routine, confusing changes to décor and the layout of a home, and the pressure to be social over extended periods of time. When somebody’s memory or cognitive skills are deteriorating, they will find these tasks especially difficult; it is important that they are catered for in the most sensitive ways possible.
By looking at each potential challenge in turn, we have suggested some ways to manage these difficulties and have a successful Christmas without causing your loved one with dementia distress or exacerbating their confusion.
Discover More - What is the difference between dementia and Alzheimer’s disease?
There are many types of dementia. Alzheimer’s disease is simply one form of dementia.
Learn More - Where did the name ‘Alzheimer’s’ come from?
Dr. Alois Alzheimer is credited with discovering Alzheimer’s disease. Dr. Alzheimer was a well-known and popular German physician and researcher working in the early 1900s. Physicians and scientists at the time had a fascination with the human brain and were studying it to better understand how it worked.
Dr. Alzheimer met Auguste Deter, the first person who was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. Auguste told Dr. Alzheimer, “I have forgotten myself”. He brought her to the doctor when she started to have memory loss and delusions. Dr. Alzheimer studied her for several years, noting her decline.
Because of Dr. Alzheimer’s discovery, the disease was named after him.
