The Braintree Personal Care team, here to help every step of the way
Supporting someone with personal care takes real understanding, warmth and respect – it’s about those private moments that help us all feel ready to face each day. Our highly trained Care Professionals, with excellent client review ratings on homecare.co.uk, provide this essential support with natural empathy and dignity – whether that’s help with morning routines, getting washed and dressed, or styling hair just the way you like it. We offer this dedicated personal care as part of our home visits, while supporting people recovering at home after hospital stays, or as part of our overnight and live-in care services across Braintree, Halstead, Sudbury and Marks Tey.

Why Personal Care may be right for you
Building trust takes time, which is why we make sure the same friendly faces visit each time. Our unhurried visits mean we can learn the little details that matter – like preferred morning routines or favourite toiletries – making personal care feel comfortable and natural. We take pride in getting things just right for each person, adapting our support as needs change while always maintaining dignity and independence.
What we do to care for your loved ones
We offer two types of home care: hourly care, where we visit at set times, or live-in care, where a carer resides in the home. Both are overseen by our care management team and delivered by compassionate Care Professionals. Each care package is made up of of a unique mix services to meet your needs.

My mother-in-law says “support from Home Instead has changed my life they have become trusted friends”.
As her daughter-in-law, I no longer have to worry that she will be unable to provide a good cooked lunch.Home Instead has given me huge peace of mind since I know that my father is taken care of. The three-month review process ensures my father remains at the heart of the care plan as his condition changes. Very professional company
Mrs D
I came across Home Instead when looking for someone to provide regular companionship for my friend, who is in residential care with dementia. Home Instead has been magnificent in the last year, some specific examples are: from the outset, the Home Instead director had very close contact with myself (who has the greatest knowledge), so that he could gain an understanding of my friend’s needs, interests and cognitive ability, thus tailoring a specific programme for visits. There was much attention to detail and a genuine interest in my friend. We have regular reviews to note changes. Information about the client/visits is held in an app which is easy to use and constantly updated. Continuity is brilliant, always the same person, always punctual, and l am always informed of any changes to the timetable. Immediate feedback on how my friend is, especially if any matters of concern are detected both to myself and the care home. I cannot recommend this company enough, hence a 5-star rating throughout.

Mr Ra
On behalf of Mum, L., myself and all the family, thank you for the great care and support you gave to mum that enabled her to stay at home for those extra 7 months. As you know, dementia made it hard for Mum to overtly express how she felt, but we knew that Mum felt very comfortable with all the
girlsand enjoyed their friendship and camaraderie. Please thank Jenny, Trudi, Jasmine, Lisa and Suzi – and let them know that mum is still dancing to ABBA, just in a chair now!!Thanks a million

Families often tell us how our approach makes such a difference. As one daughter shared on homecare.co.uk, “The ladies who come to care for mum three times a day are amazing. They are so kind, caring, polite, patient and professional.” Another client noted how we “treat her with immense dignity and kindness,” showing how our careful matching of Care Professionals to clients helps build the trust that’s so important for personal care.

This unique combination of community-focused local offices and the resources of a national network enables us to provide personalised, relationship-led care while leading research and innovation that is transforming the experience of aging. Our services include companionship care, personal care, specialist care (including dementia, palliative, and Parkinson’s), and live-in care.
Physical help given to a person and prompting of an individual to carry out daily living tasks themselves.
Promoting good personal hygiene helps to prevent illness and the spread of infection. It also helps maintain self-confidence and dignity.
A familiar care professional matched with you provides personalised care and support to you in your own home in the way you want it to be provided.
We understand that it can be difficult accepting personal care and that is why you will be introduced to your Care Professionals and they will spend time getting to know you before assisting you with your personal care.
At Home Instead we ensure that each client has a small team of Care Professionals in place to provide you with care so you can be confident that you will have continuity from the same Care Professionals.
At Home Instead, we have a robust approach to ensuring that all Care Professionals have regular observations of practice that we call Support Visits, and assessments of competency for key activities such as handling medication or providing catheter care.
