About Home Instead Senior Care
Home Instead Senior Care supports people in their own homes in Woking and the surrounding parts of Surrey. We work with older people and people living with dementia, with people who have mental health needs, physical disabilities or a visual or hearing impairment, and with younger adults who need support to live independently. We build our visits around companionship as much as tasks. A rushed call that gets the jobs done and nothing else is not much use to somebody who has spent the day alone, so our visits are long enough for a proper conversation, a cup of tea and a walk out if that is what the person wants, alongside help with washing, dressing, medication, meals and the house. Matching matters to us. We introduce carers properly before they start and then keep the same small team going into each home, because trust takes time and familiarity is what allows a carer to notice that someone is quieter, less steady or eating less than usual. We plan support with the person and their family, set it out in plain language and review it honestly as needs change. At our most recent inspection the Care Quality Commission rated us outstanding overall. We are proud of it and conscious that it has to be earned again in every visit we make. Please ring us to arrange a conversation about support at home.
