Care in Wadebridge

Home Instead provides premium, relationship led care for people in their own homes in Wadebridge and surrounding areas in Mid Cornwall.  Our high quality, fully managed home care service supports people to carry on enjoying their lives as independently as possible in their own homes.

Our care can be anything from a cup of tea and a chat, to trips out and about in the local area; enjoy looking out over the Camel Estuary, take a flask of tea to the beaches at Daymer bay or Padstow or just pop into Wadebridge town centre, with some caring company.

As needs change over time we can also provide more specialist services, such as dementia care or support with washing and dressing. We use strengths based care planning asking  “what does or would a good day look like?” and help a person to achieve this rather than just focusing on particular medical needs or frailties.

How is Home Instead Care in Wadebridge different?

• 1-hour minimum visit time
• All Care Professionals are fully introduced to the people they are looking after, and shadow visits used where they will help.
• Office team coordinate between clients, their families, the caregivers, health professionals and representatives (LPOAs and friends)
• Care plans & notes available for review on a portal for a named person if consent if provider by the person being looked after.
• Training and Development for Caregivers to improve skills in frailty care, dementia care, Parkinson’s, and palliative care
• We can also support with shopping, gardening and other regular household tasks.
• Caregiving team fully employed and extensively checked on recruitment, no agency workers.
• Proper supportive supervision and management for the Caregiving team.
• We always ensure there is at least a 15 minute (paid) gap between scheduled visits so that Care Professionals can travel between clients without rushing or eating into their care time

We charge a set monthly fee depending on the weekly hours needed. This includes everything – Caregiver time, travel, training, introductions, support from the office. The only extras would be specific expenses incurred for the client e.g. shopping which are passed on at cost. Mileage with the client or for a client (to collect a prescription for example) is charged at 45p.

With the high quality, managed care service we provide, people can be helped to live their lives at home where they want to be.

Wadebridge is a lovely place for an older person to live. This vibrant, market town has a great range of shops and restaurants and is busy all year round. Our Care Professional Julie loves to take clients on a drive to see the beautiful coast and beaches at Padstow, Polzeath or Daymer Bay. Gina likes going for coffee at Strong Adolfos near the Royal Cornwall Showground. Hattie prefers the local garden centre at Trelawney or cycling the Camel Trail to Padstow and Bodmin.

The John Betjamin Centre just by the library is a wonderful community hub (with a great cafe!) for all the ages. They are open 10 am – 4 pm Monday to Friday. Call manager Emma on 01208 812392 for more information about their many senior and memory friendly activities.  We are normally there every 1st and 3rd Tuesday from 1- 3 pm. Home – Concern Wadebridge

“I would like to thank all the carers who have looked after my father over the last 2 years. They enabled him to stay in his own home in Egloshalyle for as long as possible and assisted in the transition to full time care. I have no hesitation in recommending Home Instead.”
