Why Home Instead?

Home care in Cornwall
Home care in Cornwall supports people to live independently and comfortably in the place they know best - home. Enter postcode of the person to find your nearest office and local care team.
Parkinson’s affects everyone differently and often progresses slowly, allowing many to continue to live full, active lives. At Home Instead Mid Cornwall, we tailor care to each person’s needs – starting with a few visits a week for outings or respite for family carers. Elizabeth in Bodmin , for example, loved her weekly café trips to Lanhydrock. When she could no longer drive, her family asked us to help. As her needs changed, we began visiting daily at 9:15am to support her morning routine. She still enjoys walks in the gardens at Lanhydrock with her Caregiver – always followed by tea and cake, just how she likes it. We tailor our care to suit what the individual person wishes and needs.
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.
Thanks again for the great care you all are giving Mum, from someone so reluctant to accept care now looks forward daily to her Care Professionals. BIG achievement!

Our Care Starts With Connection
Our Care Coordinators design personalised Care Plans around each person’s needs and preferences, always focused on maintaining independence. We support with medication, and as needs grow, assist with tasks like washing and dressing. Our office team trains Caregivers in medication and cream application, with weekly checks to ensure everything’s done safely. Bill in Wadebridge , who lives with Parkinson’s, always looked forward to his weekly trips to Trevone beach. When mobility became harder, his Caregiver Caroline made sure he could still go—driving him there and walking alongside him with a stick. She now visits daily to help him start his day right, keeping his routine and freedom intact.
