Get in touch Why Day Care may be right for you
No two people are the same, which is why no two day care visits are either. Some clients enjoy baking, listening to music, or chatting about local news, while others like gentle exercise, puzzles, or arts and crafts. We work hard to match clients with Care Professionals who share their interests and personality, creating an atmosphere of relaxed support. These visits offer more than just help with the day; they build confidence, restore motivation, and provide valuable social connection. For many clients, our day care visits become a highlight, offering both stability and joy.

We offer two types of home care: hourly care, where we visit at set times, or live-in care, where a carer resides in the home. Both are overseen by our care management team and delivered by compassionate Care Professionals. Each care package is made up of a unique mix of services to meet your needs.

The excellent care my Mum received from all the caregivers allowed her to be in her own home for longer than we could have hoped. The sensitivity shown to her growing needs through dementia was greatly appreciated. We had real peace of mind that she was well looked after by a regular team of carers. The communication with office staff certainly made things run smoothly.
Fiona D - daughter of client in Southport
Home Instead have been an absolute Godsend to our family. All through lockdown they never let us down. Nothing was ever too much trouble. The staff in the office and on the ground are always helpful, supportive, reliable, caring and respectful. I would highly recommend their care.
Linda T - Daughter of client in Southport.
Home Instead Southport have proved invaluable over the last two and a half years. Dad always wanted to stay in the house that he moved to in 1971 – the home in which he and Mum raised the family. With the support of his lovely Caregivers, Dad managed to do this until the week before he died – aged 98. I have no hesitation in recommending Home Instead Southport.
K R - Daughter of client in Southport.
The service my father received form Home Instead Southport was life-changing. Since he started receiving a morning visit each day, his physical and mental health has markedly improved, so after two years of care, he seems two years younger. The care was reliable and tailored to what he needed, and the carers were kind, competent and fun.

Tailored Day Care in Southport & Formby
Families often tell us how much our day care support has meant. One son shared: “Very professional, both the caregivers and the office staff. Looked after my Dad from 2017 to 2019 and then my mum in 2021. We built up an excellent relationship, they went above and beyond, and I’m so grateful, as were my mum and dad.” Another wrote: “Excellent, timely, empathic care was provided by a small team to our mother. This carer became like a close friend to our mother. She was helpful and efficient without being too intrusive.” That’s the difference familiarity and compassion can make.
