To us it's personal

An important part of our care is helping people continue doing the things they enjoy, as well as providing supportive help at home. That might mean keeping up a favourite hobby, going for a regular walk, seeing friends or simply popping to the weekly market. Many of our Care Professionals drive, so we can help with trips to Bitts Park, the city centre, the shops or GP appointments. Because our visits are never rushed, there is also plenty of time for companionship, whether that is sitting down over a cup of tea, having a proper conversation or spending time on something the person enjoys. Every Care Professional is employed and trained by us, with additional training provided in areas such as dementia and Parkinson’s. Our care is also regulated by the Care Quality Commission, giving families reassurance that the care we provide is properly managed and held to recognised standards.

Choosing Home Instead Carlisle for personalised home care

Before our care begins, we take the time to understand the person, including their routines, preferences, interests and the kind of support they feel would be most helpful. From there, we carefully personalise the care so it reflects how they like to live and the things that matter to them, rather than fitting them into a standard package. We keep each client with a small, familiar team who get to know them well, and we always look for ways to support independence rather than take over. Wherever possible, that means doing things with someone and encouraging them to remain involved in their own routines and day-to-day life. As needs change over time, we can adjust the type and level of care we provide, while keeping the support familiar and consistent.

Our Carlisle Team is With You Through Every Step

When choosing a care agency in Carlisle, many families value knowing there is a familiar team nearby who understands the person and the care in place. Our local team remains closely involved from the start, organising visits, speaking with families and reviewing the support whenever someone’s needs or circumstances change. We employ and train our own Care Professionals, arrange cover when someone is unavailable and oversee the care ourselves, so families are not left to coordinate those arrangements. Our service is regulated by the Care Quality Commission, and because the same office stays involved throughout, there is always someone to speak to who already knows the client and can help when something needs to change.
