In Lostwithiel, we provide premium, relationship-led Dementia Care tailored to each client’s unique needs. With visits lasting at least an hour, our Care Professionals have time to build real connections and deliver thoughtful, high-quality support. We focus on emotional wellbeing as much as practical help-shopping, ironing, or Personal Care-to make daily life easier and more enjoyable. Clients often enjoy outings to Lanhydrock House, a quiet picnic by the medieval bridge, or a gentle stroll through town. As needs change, we adapt with personalised support, including specialist Dementia Care and Palliative Care. Every client is personally introduced to their Care Professional, ensuring genuinely compassionate home care in Lostwithiel.

Choosing Home Instead Lostwithiel for personalised home care
When care begins, our Care Manager or a team member visits to create a personalised care plan tailored to each person’s needs and wishes. We don’t wear uniforms, as we believe this fosters more genuine, personal connections. Beyond assessing health, medication, and mobility, we take time to learn each person’s life story-their favourite meals, routines, and hobbies. Outings are encouraged wherever possible, supporting wellbeing and social connection. Cathy, one of our dedicated Caregivers, often takes Elizabeth to the Duchy Nursery Café for afternoon tea. They’ve also enjoyed lunch at Haveners in Fowey, where Elizabeth watches the boats and recalls her sailing-care with a personal touch, right here in Lostwithiel and surrounding villages.
Our Lostwithiel Team is With You Through Every Step
At the heart of our home care service is a dedicated, highly qualified team. Our Care Manager and Training Coordinator hold Level 5 Leadership qualifications in Health and Social Care, blending expertise with commitment. We follow the respected Newcastle model for dementia training, ensuring our team delivers compassionate, effective care. Training happens at Enterprise House, Par Moor, with hands-on assessments in clients' homes across Lostwithiel, Lanlivery, and nearby villages, because real care happens at home. When Elizabeth in Lostwithiel needed dual-assisted Personal Care after surgery, her regular team were quickly upskilled, giving her confident, compassionate support.
This familiarity extends into how connected we are with the Lostwithiel community. Lostwithiel is a lovely community to live in as an older person, with a rich history as an ancient stannary town. The community centre has a friendship cafe on Thursdays at 2pm and many other activities throughout the week. For those with good mobility, try the Restormel Walking Trail between the Duchy of Cornwall Nursery and the ruins of Restormel Castle. Lostwithiel itself has a great range of shops and events throughout the year, including LostFest in May and the Dickensian Evening in early December. Families can also access support through the Guide to Memory Cafes in Mid Cornwall, the Cancer Support Group in Lostwithiel, Lostwithiel Medical Practice, and The Mess Hall, a friendly cafe in the heart of Lostwithiel.
We deliver tailored home care to the Lostwithiel 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 Lostwithiel is designed by experts and is City & Guilds Assured, so you know your loved one is receiving only the very best care. Our Care Professionals focus on creating an environment that's calm and consistent, while maintaining dignity and familiar routines to reduce confusion and keep clients comfortable.
