Choosing Home Instead Balerno for personalised home care
Our local clients and their loved ones often share how our home care services have transformed their lives. The son of one of our clients reflects, “From the onset, my mum has received fantastic care from the team and I can’t speak highly enough of the care pros.” Receiving such heartfelt testimonials from our clients on homecare.co.uk is incredibly rewarding, and it’s contributed to us earning a place in the Top 20 Homecare Providers in Scotland for three consecutive years. We are proud that our high-quality care not only supports our clients, but also offers assistance and reassurance to their loved ones with options such as Respite Care, Overnight Care and Live-In Care available to suit each individual family’s needs.
Our experienced leadership team in Balerno works tirelessly to provide exceptional care. Led by owner Graham Stevenson, who founded Home Instead after personally experiencing the challenges of arranging care for his own grandmother, our team understands the importance of local, reliable support. Our Care Manager, Nadine Whitelaw, has progressed through every level of our organisation, bringing valuable hands-on experience to her leadership role, and a close-knit office team ensures every Care Professional has the tools they need to deliver top-notch care.
We bring that same dedication to the wider Balerno area, working in partnership with third sector organisations to support older adults in our community. Our quarterly 'What's On Where Guide' helps clients discover local activities around West Lothian, while our annual participation in the 'Be A Santa To A Senior' campaign brings festive cheer to hundreds of isolated local elderly people each winter. We also regularly host free dementia workshops and will be bringing the Virtual Dementia Tour Bus to upcoming community awareness events, helping families better understand and support loved ones living with dementia.
We deliver tailored home care to the Balerno community to nurture wellbeing and independence.
We adapt our services to fit your life, delivering compassionate, consistent, and attentive care, enabling you to thrive in your home and community.
Our dementia care in Balerno is designed by experts and is City & Guilds Assured, so you know your loved one is receiving only the very best care.
