We provide award winning care in Barnstaple, Bideford, Braunton, South Molton, Northam, Fremington, Landkey, Bratton Fleming, Kings Nympton, Combe Martin and the surrounding areas
Every individual experiences dementia differently, so we shape care around what helps each person feel safe, confident and in control. Whether someone lives in Cheltenham, Weston-super-Mare, Truro or Swindon, our Care Professionals tailor their approach, so support fits naturally into daily life. This may involve helping with morning and evening patterns, preparing meals that bring comfort, supporting gentle movement or offering reassurance during moments of uncertainty.
Activities are guided by personal interests and history. Some people enjoy time outdoors in familiar spaces such as Brandon Hill or Exmouth Beach, while others prefer quieter routines indoors, such as listening to favourite records, looking through keepsakes, or enjoying a familiar TV programme. When confusion or anxiety appears, Care Professionals use calm, grounding communication techniques that reduce distress and restore a sense of ease.
All Care Professionals complete City & Guilds-assured dementia training, developing the practical and emotional skills needed to recognise subtle changes in mood or cognition. Families are kept informed with regular updates and clear guidance as needs evolve.
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.

Our Care Starts With Connection
Dementia care is most effective when delivered at a pace that feels comfortable. Our Care Professionals spend unhurried time with each client, allowing space for conversation, reassurance and the familiar routines that help someone feel like themselves. This steady rhythm reduces anxiety and creates a sense of predictability, especially for those who find change overwhelming.
Because the same Care Professionals visit regularly, clients build trust and confidence with people they recognise. This familiarity helps moments of confusion feel less frightening and makes accepting support more natural.
Care Professionals help with everyday tasks such as bathing, dressing, meal preparation, gentle mobility support and settling into morning or evening routines. Communication is thoughtful and patient, guided by the person’s mood and what they can manage on that particular day. Whether sharing quiet company, supporting a favourite activity or simply offering a reassuring presence, the approach is always centred on dignity and comfort.

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.
Hourly Home Care
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.
