Home Instead have been fantastic with my mum right from the start.
I live some distance from my mum, who has lived on her own for more than 20 years and is very independent.
They put my mum first, got to know her, and spent time talking to her. They helped Mum with what she wanted help with, and built up her trust by listening to her and working to her agenda, not theirs. As Mum’s dementia got worse she relied more upon them but they knew her likes and dislikes and spent time with her so she felt like she was valued and safe.
Great communication, the online portal and daily task notes kept me informed on Mum’s state of mind, health and activities. Appropriate phone calls for urgent contact and emails when less urgent.
When circumstances change e.g. stay in hospital, a deterioration in her dementia, increase in help needed, Home Instead helped me by adapting the services they provided giving me advice and the support I needed.
I would recommend their services without hesitation
Home Instead absolutely came to my rescue! Recommended by a family member who is a community nurse, this wonderful organisation provided the short-term support I needed after several weeks of home nursing. My husband’s health was slowly improving but it was reassuring to have a friendly and competent carer to supervise showering and, to my delight, to carry out light household tasks such as ironing. I was able to leave the house for a short while. Right from the initial home assessment visit, the process was easy, and the staff was professional, caring and friendly. Home Instead was there in our hour of need. Highly recommended – thank you.
We believe exceptional home care starts with understanding the individual. That’s why we take time to get to know each client, their interests, routines and what matters most to them before creating a personalised care plan. As needs change, our support changes too, helping people remain comfortable and independent in their own home.
Our Care Professionals are fully employed, receive outstanding training and are carefully matched with clients to build trusted relationships. Wherever possible, the same familiar faces visit each time, providing continuity, reassurance and companionship.

For example, Brian enjoys regular visits to AJ’s Coffee Shop in Carlyon Bay with his Care Professional, Jane. Sharing lunch, catching up with familiar faces and remaining part of the local community are just as important as the care itself. It’s these meaningful moments, together with personalised support at home, that help people live well and stay connected to the people and places that matter most.
Carlyon Bay is close to community groups that help older adults stay active and connected. The welcoming St Austell Memory Café at Cuddra WI Hall, Holmbush, meets on the first and third Monday of each month, offering friendship and support for people living with dementia and their families. Nearby, Wheal Martyn Memory Café provides another place to meet others.
From September, Home Instead also supports the Parkinson’s Café at Bethel Methodist Chapel, held on the second Wednesday of each month, where people with Parkinson’s and their families can enjoy advice, friendship and refreshments. Our Care Professionals are happy to accompany clients to local groups and activities, helping them stay independent and connected.

As a guide, two hours of home care each week costs £86.60, one hour each day costs £303 per week, and two one-hour visits each day (morning and evening) cost £606 per week. Unlike many providers, we never cut visits short – you receive the full time you’ve arranged. For people needing up to four hours of support each day, high-quality home care can often represent excellent value compared with residential care, while allowing you to remain independent in the comfort and familiarity of your own home.
