About Home Instead - , Chislehurst & Orpington
Home Instead Bromley, Chislehurst and Orpington provides care and support in people's own homes across West Wickham and the surrounding borough. We work with older adults, younger adults, and people living with dementia. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is outstanding. We mention it because it reflects the thing we have concentrated on hardest, which is sending the same carers to the same people for long enough visits that the relationship has room to become a real one. Nearly everything good about home care follows from that, and nearly everything that goes wrong follows from the opposite. The help itself covers personal care, medication, meals and drinks, mobility, shopping, getting out to appointments and into the community, household tasks and companionship. For people living with dementia we work with the routines already established at home rather than introducing new ones, and we support families too, because caring for a relative is demanding and frequently lonely. Plans are agreed with the person, written in plain language, and reviewed properly when circumstances shift rather than on a fixed cycle that suits nobody. An outstanding rating is a standard to keep rather than a trophy. Please get in touch if you would like to talk about support at home.
