Being at home allows people to continue living in a way that feels familiar, even while receiving palliative care. At Home Instead, we provide personalised palliative care across Portishead to help them remain surrounded by the memories, belongings and relationships that bring them the most comfort. Home may be where grandchildren stop by after school, neighbours pop in for a friendly chat, or where their favourite recipes can continue to be enjoyed around the dinner table. These everyday moments can provide a welcome sense of normality during a challenging time, so our compassionate support helps to preserve them as much as possible. We can manage any pain and symptoms your loved one experiences, while also maintaining their comfort, dignity and wellbeing through person-centred care that's tailored to their exact needs.

The comfort of familiar surroundings can be incredibly important when someone is living with a life-limiting condition, and we believe palliative care should help them continue enjoying the routines, relationships and simple pleasures that bring reassurance to their days. That's why we spend time getting to know your loved one as an individual before creating a personalised plan of support that carefully considers their preferences, priorities and personal wishes at every stage. Our Care Professionals can provide the exact combination of support they need, such as personal care, home help, mobility assistance and specialist care, all delivered in line with Care Quality Commission regulations. By working closely with your loved one's clinical team, we can ensure their care is always coordinated, responsive and consistently delivered to the highest professional standards so your family can feel comfortable placing their trust in us.
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.

Creating the right match from the outset helps every visit that follows feel more comfortable, so by taking the time to understand your loved one's personality, preferences and what matters most to them, we can introduce a dedicated Care Professional who complements them well. Through regular visits, familiarity allows their support to feel more personal, which can reduce the feelings of uncertainty often associated with palliative care. Whether accompanying them to appointments at Southmead Hospital, coordinating with visiting healthcare professionals or providing companionship within the home, they can become a reassuring source of comfort throughout your loved one's care. Our Care Professionals complete specialist palliative care training focused on compassionate communication, comfort measures and recognising changing circumstances, so along with regular family reviews, we can ensure our support continues to evolve with your loved one's needs while maintaining the close connection that helps them remain comfortable in their home.
Studies find that those with a life-limiting illness and their families both prefer to receive palliative care at home, so Home Instead's Portishead team helps preserve the comforting environment of home by taking care of the many practical responsibilities that can otherwise become overwhelming during this time. This creates more opportunities for your family to spend time together instead of managing other things. We work with visiting district nurses, GPs and local palliative specialists, and make sure the care we provide always complements their treatment plans. In addition, every one of our Care Professionals is supported by a dedicated office team who are responsible for coordinating care planning, arranging schedules, reviewing the service regularly and adapting support whenever your loved one's care needs change. Throughout every stage of their care, our compassionate team is committed to delivering the personalised support that reflects their wishes, helping your family feel confident that they are getting the help they need from people who genuinely care.
We adapt our services to fit your life, delivering compassionate, consistent, and attentive care, enabling you to thrive in your home and community.
