About Home Instead Andover & East
Home Instead Andover and East Wiltshire provides care at home for older people in Pewsey and the surrounding villages. We work with a small number of things done properly rather than a long list, and our focus is on older people, including those living with dementia. Our visits are built around the person. That might be help with washing and dressing, support with medication, cooking a proper meal, keeping the house in order, doing the shopping or getting out to an appointment. Just as often the most valuable part is the company: sitting down with somebody, having a conversation, going out for a walk or a drive, and taking the time not to rush. For people living with dementia we keep the same care workers visiting, work with the routine that already suits the household and avoid moving things about in a home somebody knows well. A familiar voice at the door takes the anxiety out of a visit before it has started, and a care worker who knows a person notices when something has changed. Living in a rural area brings its own difficulties, and isolation is one of them. We try to make sure our visits help people stay connected to the places and people they know rather than simply keeping them safe indoors.
