About Home Instead Senior Care
Home Instead supports people in their own homes across Croydon. We visit older people and younger adults, people living with dementia, adults with a learning disability or autism, people living with mental ill health, people with physical disabilities and people whose sight or hearing has changed. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is outstanding. We are pleased with that, and clear that it belongs to the staff who earned it rather than to anything written here. We treat it as something to keep proving, so we keep asking the people we visit and their families what they honestly think and we act on what comes back. The question we start with is not what somebody cannot do but what they want their day to look like and what is getting in the way. From there the support might be a call each morning, help with medication and meals, assistance with shopping and housework, a lift to an appointment, or company for a few hours a week. Companionship is a proper part of the work rather than an afterthought, and so is continuity. We plan our rounds so that the same carers go to the same homes, which is what allows trust to build and what lets our staff notice when something has changed. Do get in touch if you would like to talk things over without any pressure.
