Are you or a loved one navigating the challenges of dementia or Alzheimer’s?

At Home Instead North Devon and Exmoor, we provide tailored, compassionate care that truly makes a difference.
What Is Dementia and How Does It Affect Day-to-Day Life?
Dementia is a term that covers a variety of symptoms affecting memory, thinking, and social interaction. It can make it difficult for individuals to carry out everyday tasks, and over time, it can impact their independence. Alzheimer’s is the most common cause of dementia, accounting for the majority of cases in the UK. Whether it’s confusion, memory loss, or changes in behaviour, the symptoms are progressive and can be overwhelming for both the individual and their family.
In North Devon, where peaceful surroundings provide a sense of comfort, home-based care is often the preferred solution. Families want their loved ones to remain in a familiar environment for as long as possible, and that’s where our dedicated Care Professionals come in.

Expertly Trained Care Professionals

Whether assisting with daily activities like dressing, meal preparation, or medication management, or simply providing companionship, our team is committed to delivering compassionate care that respects the dignity of each individual.
Maintaining Independence at Home
Home care offers a safe and comfortable alternative to moving into a care facility. In North Devon, where many families cherish the idea of their loved ones remaining in their own homes, we provide the support necessary to maintain independence. From live-in care to daily or overnight visits, we offer flexible services designed around each person’s needs.
Specialist Services Including Live-In and Overnight Care
For those who require more intensive support, live-in care can offer round-the-clock assistance, ensuring your loved one is never alone. Overnight care, meanwhile, provides peace of mind during the night, helping with mobility, restlessness, and other needs that may arise.
Supporting Families Every Step of the Way
We know that caring for someone with dementia or Alzheimer’s can be physically and emotionally demanding for families. That’s why we offer respite care services, giving family caregivers the time they need to rest and recharge, confident in the knowledge that their loved one is in safe, caring hands.
