Choosing Home Instead Hindley for personalised home care

Although Hindley is on the main train line to central Wigan and generally well-served by buses, aging adults often lose confidence in their ability to remain active. Home Instead home care gives aging adults the support needed to remain a part of the wider community and to continue doing the activities they enjoy. This is especially valuable for clients with mobility and frailty challenges, yet still feel young of mind. This preserves the routines and activities they enjoy and allows them to continue to nurture and develop meaningful relationships with people in their community. For example, Jane (one of our local Care Professionals) takes 86 year old Angie to her local art class each week, often with a visit to Galloways afterwards, making it possible for her to continue to develop her passion for art, whilst socialising with her friends. “The carers are amazing, very kind, calm, thoughtful, and knowledgeable. They have also recently provided live-in care to enable me to go away and visit family and friends. This has been fantastic and I really appreciate all the help they have provided. All the work they do researching what care is required before the carers visit is amazing. I cannot recommend Home Instead enough.” – Sarah, wife of client

Our Hindley Team is With You Through Every Step

Our tight-knit and highly experienced team of carers and support staff is dedicated to making life in Hindley easier and better for all our clients. Together we have hundreds of years of experience in care, and all our staff chose to join Home Instead because they believe in the core purpose of delivering care to others that they would be happy to see being received by their own family. Our office team lives to make a difference, and all our Care Professionals are given comprehensive support and training so that they can do the best possible job for those they care for, whether for companionship visits, personal care, live-in care, dementia support, or any of our other services. With its good transport links and range of amenities, Hindley is also a great spot to live as an older adult. The Summat to Ate dementia café takes place on the first Thursday of each month to help keep those with memory challenges active and engaged, the big Aldi on Atherton Road makes it easy to stay on top of cupboard essentials, and there's plenty of fresh air and outdoors space thanks to Clayhole Park and the nearby Amberswood Nature Reserve. Whatever your loved one's ideal days look like, we're here to support with everything from daily bathing and dressing to transport, shopping, and support for getting to and from appointments at the health centres, or further afield.
