Why Personal Care may be right for you

You’ll see the same friendly faces each time because we understand how important familiarity is with personal care. Our Care Professionals take time to learn the little details that matter – like whether you prefer a shower before breakfast, how you like to choose your outfits for Sunday lunch in Folkestone, or your favourite toiletries. At Home Instead, it’s not about having different carers coming and going; it’s about building trusted relationships with people who understand your routines and respect your choices. This consistency helps you feel comfortable and confident, while giving families peace of mind that their loved one is in caring, capable hands.

We believe personal care should be delivered with the utmost respect for each client’s dignity and preferences. Our longer visits allow Care Professionals to provide thorough, unhurried assistance, ensuring clients feel safe, comfortable, and in control.

As one local family shared “Mum’s Home Instead carers are, without exception, professional and kind. They bring more to the visits than excellent personal care. They take an interest in Mum as a person and offer a variety of conversations to enrich her day. We could not care for Mum at home as we do without their input.”
