As people age, they often face challenges that can limit their ability to live independently. Many older people prefer to remain in their homes as they age, but may require assistance with daily activities. In-home care for older people from Home Instead is an option that can provide the support needed to maintain their independence and improve their quality of life.

Personalised care

One of the primary benefits of Home Instead is that it provides personalised care tailored to the unique needs of each individual. Care professionals can work closely with older people and their families to develop a customised care plan that addresses their specific needs and preferences. This can include assistance with activities of daily living, medication management, transportation, and more.

Comfort and familiarity

Home is a place of comfort and familiarity for many. In-home care from a regular team allows them to remain in their own homes, surrounded by their belongings and memories, which can be comforting and reassuring. This can help reduce stress and anxiety, which can be particularly important for those with dementia or other cognitive impairments.

Independence and control

Care professionals can provide support and assistance with tasks that may be challenging, but they can also encourage and empower older people to continue to do things for themselves when possible. This can help boost self-esteem and overall well-being.

Companionship

Social isolation is a common problem, particularly for those who live alone. Home Instead can provide valuable companionship and social interaction, providing conversation and activities, and help people stay connected with family and friends.

Peace of mind for family

Home Instead can provide regular updates and communicate with family members to ensure they are informed and involved in their loved one’s care. This can help reduce stress and anxiety for both older people and their families.

In-home care from Home Instead can provide a range of benefits that can improve quality of life and overall well-being. Personalised care, comfort and familiarity, independence and control, companionship, and peace of mind for family are just some of the advantages.
