About Home Instead Bury St Edmunds

Home Instead Bury St Edmunds supports people in their own homes across the town and the surrounding villages. We work with older people and younger adults, with people living with dementia or mental ill health, and with people who have physical disabilities or sight and hearing loss. We believe home care works best when visits are long enough to do the job properly. Rushing somebody through washing and dressing before hurrying off is not care, and it is usually how small problems get missed. So we plan time realistically and expect our carers to sit down and talk as well as get things done. Support varies from one household to the next. It might be a call first thing to start the day well, several visits across the day, help with medication, support to get out to appointments, or company for someone who would otherwise see nobody from one day to the next. Where dementia is part of the picture, we ask families to tell us about the person rather than the condition, and we use what we learn. Familiar faces matter enormously here, so we keep the same carers with the same households wherever we can. Our most recent rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. If you are weighing up care at home for yourself or a relative, please ring us for a straightforward conversation.
