To us it's personal

Our dementia care in Somerton focuses on familiarity, comfort, and stability. We support daily routines like bathing, dressing, and meals while helping with memory-based activities such as photo sharing or music therapy. Helping your loved one feel safe at home is an important part of our care; simple adjustments like clear signage and clutter-free spaces make a real difference. Each care plan is created with your loved one in mind, giving them a sense of control and helping them stay connected with who they are. It’s care that feels natural and respects the person, not just the condition.

Our Somerton Team is With You Through Every Step

We know that dementia doesn't just affect the individual, it touches the whole family. Many relatives feel unsure about how best to help when behaviours shift or communication becomes more difficult. At Home Instead Somerton, we're here to help you carry the day-to-day a little more lightly. From home care to live-in care, we bring a personal touch to the support we provide in the Somerton area, for example, by introducing dementia-friendly name badges to help clients easily recognise their Care Professionals and feel more at ease. This personal touch extends into our wider network across the Somerton area. We work closely with other organisations such as Age UK, the Alzheimer's Society, and local memory groups, allowing us to stay informed, share best practices, and ensure our clients and their families have access to a wider network of dementia-friendly resources and support.
