Many people find that household chores become increasingly difficult as they grow older. Tasks that involve bending, lifting or reaching, such as making beds, cleaning floors, taking bins out or dusting high shelves, can become more tiring than they once were, and could become more risky if your mobility is reduced. At Home Instead, we offer flexible home help throughout the Scottish Borders, with every visit tailored to your individual needs, routines and preferences. Your dedicated Care Professional can support you with a wide range of everyday household jobs, helping to keep your home a clean, tidy and safe space where you feel completely at ease.

The first step towards truly personalised home help is taking the time to listen, so before Home Instead begins any support in the Scottish Borders, we'll get to know you, your daily routine, household preferences and the practical assistance you believe would benefit you most and create the biggest positive shift in your daily life. We use this information to create a tailored plan, and find a dedicated Care Professional with the skills to help. They will focus on providing support that's built around your individual needs rather than a standard approach, so that as your circumstances change your support can change too. Throughout your journey, every part of our service follows Care Quality Commission regulations alongside our own exacting internal quality standards, giving you complete peace of mind in the help you receive.
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.

Strong relationships are built on trust and genuine connection, which is why Home Instead takes such care when matching every client in the Scottish Borders with a dedicated Care Professional who can not only meet their needs, but is also a great fit for their personality. Before support begins, we'll spend time getting to know your communication style, interests, routines and the things that make each day enjoyable for you. Rather than simply assigning someone to carry out household tasks, we match you with a Care Professional who's a good fit, helping meaningful companionship to develop alongside your practical support. While they take care of cleaning, laundry and other household responsibilities, you'll have more freedom to enjoy walks in Wilton Lodge Park, shopping on Peebles High Street, or catching up with a friend over coffee at your favourite nearby cafe. By giving you back valuable time, we help you maintain both your independence at home, and your social connections within your community.
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.
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!
