About Home Instead
We are Home Instead, and this is our team covering Burton on Trent and the surrounding parts of Staffordshire. We provide care and companionship to people in their own homes, and we work in longer visits rather than brief calls, because good care at home needs enough time in it to do the job properly and still sit down for a conversation. Much of what we do is practical help for older people: getting up and dressed, bathing, medication, cooking a proper meal, the shopping and the laundry, and getting out to appointments or into town. Just as much of it is company, which is not a soft extra. Loneliness does real harm, and a care worker who knows the family photographs, walks the dog and remembers what happened last week is doing something genuinely valuable. We also support people living with dementia, where continuity is everything, so we work hard to keep the same familiar care workers visiting the same households. We support adults with learning disabilities and autistic adults, people living with mental ill health, people with physical disabilities, people living with sight or hearing loss, and some younger adults. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. If you are thinking about support at home for yourself or a relative, please get in touch.
