Cornwall's coastline, harbours, and market towns are places people spend their whole lives getting to know. For someone living with dementia, staying connected to those familiar places matters. Our dementia care in Cornwall helps people remain close to the spots they've always loved. Every care plan is personal, built around the individual's history and what brings them comfort.
Personalised dementia care that starts with listening
Your situation is unique – your care should be too. We match our Care Professionals based on their dementia training, interests and personality, so care is always tailored to you.
20 years of trusted experience
We exceed UK regulatory standards, rank highly on Homecare.co.uk, and our qualified Care Professionals are trained to the highest standard so you can have complete peace of mind.
City & Guilds Assured dementia training
Our programme was created exclusively for Home Instead, and developed alongside key dementia specialists. We focus on caring not just for the condition, but for the person behind it.
Compassionate support for complex behaviours
We work to understand your loved one's world so we can join them in it - this helps us keep them safe and calm, provide stimulating activities, and effectively soothe challenging and complex behaviours.

Dementia affects each person differently, so every care plan we put together reflects that individual's specific needs, preferences, and daily patterns. What works well for someone in Falmouth won't necessarily suit someone living near Bodmin or Penzance. Personal care is something our Care Professionals handle with real discretion, following each person's preferred way of doing things so it feels natural and unhurried. They also support with medication reminders, keeping to schedules and maintaining clear records so nothing gets missed. Daily routines give a lot of structure when memory becomes less reliable. Consistent morning and evening patterns help, including mealtimes prepared the way each person prefers. A gentle trip on the Liskeard-Looe Valley Line, for instance, can be a familiar and calming outing for someone who's always enjoyed the train. We're regulated by the CQC. At home, our Care Professionals reorganise rooms so everyday items are easier to find, and check that rugs and cables aren't creating trip hazards.
Whatever your situation, Home Instead can provide quality care to enable your loved one to stay where they belong: at home. Share your details here and one of our friendly advisors will reach out to answer your questions.

When someone living with dementia becomes upset or confused, our Care Professionals stay calm, slow down, and use clear, patient language. They don't correct or contradict. They give the person time and space to feel settled again. We prioritise continuity, which means the same Care Professionals visit regularly. Over time, they get to know each person's habits, expressions, and the small signals that indicate how they're feeling. We also match Care Professionals on personality and interests, not just availability. Someone who's always loved gardening or following the rugby might be paired with a Care Professional who shares that enthusiasm, giving visits a more natural feel. Our Care Professionals hold City & Guilds-assured training in dementia support, covering communication, mood changes, and engagement techniques. This might involve sitting together with old photographs or watching the fishing boats come and go at Port Isaac.
We're ready to help you make an informed, confident choice for your loved one, with bespoke and easily-adapted packages designed around their needs.
When your loved one begins to need more frequent support, our flexible home care solutions help them stay safe and independent at home. We don't take a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, we personalise your experience with responsive, attentive, and genuinely compassionate care, so you can feel reassured they are in capable hands.
We understand how overwhelming it can be to leave your loved one if they live with a condition like dementia, arthritis, or diabetes. Our highly experienced Care Professionals are matched based on their specialist knowledge and expertise, so you can feel content knowing your loved one's health conditions are carefully monitored and managed.
We are proud to be the benchmark for exceptional care, so all of our qualified Care Professionals receive training that goes above and beyond the industry standard. When it comes to complex health conditions, you can rest assured that your loved one's safety and wellbeing is always a top priority.
Our live-in care provides round-the-clock support and offers a welcome alternative to residential care, empowering your loved one to remain independent in the environment they know. With person-centred care from someone they recognise, older individuals can benefit from familiarity, friendship, and a consistent care plan.

Our Care Managers are available when you have questions, concerns, or simply want to talk something through. You don't need to wait for a scheduled review. We keep families updated on their relative's care through regular communication, including any changes we've noticed in mood, appetite, sleep, or behaviour. If something shifts, you'll hear about it promptly and clearly. Care plans are reviewed regularly and adjusted as needs change. As dementia progresses, the level and type of support often needs to shift too, and we plan ahead for that. We'll talk with you about what the coming weeks and months might look like, what additional support could help, and how to approach decisions about things like overnight care or increased visit frequency. Our dementia care in Cornwall gives families practical, ongoing support, with clear information and forward planning at every stage.
We adapt our services to fit your life, delivering compassionate, consistent, and attentive care, enabling you to thrive in your home and community.
