How our home care supports families in Southampton
Discover how Home Instead Southampton supports family caregivers, providing professional care and peace of mind.
When the needs of our older relatives increase for care at home, and a little or a lot of extra support is needed, it’s often family members who step up to the plate. It is an act of love, certainly, but as any caregiver knows, it’s also a significant commitment. At Home Instead Southampton, we understand this completely and have built our services to not just care for older adults, but to support and empower the family members who care for them.
"Your caregiver is a delight to have. Our mum bonded well with her. The care given and household duties done were just as we would do for our mum, truly a family touch with a professional edge and would highly recommend Home Instead to others. Thank you for all you do.”

Our Care Professionals are exactly that – professionals. With 13 years of experience at Home Instead Southampton in matching our Care Professionals with our clients, we take pride in our in-depth recruitment and award-winning training programme.
Our carefully selected Care Professionals share the same dedication and warmth as family members. They are naturals at stepping into a home environment and providing care with a seamless blend of professional skill and personal attention. We strive to enhance the lives of older adults by matching their regular Care Professional based on personality, hobbies, and needs. We believe that this personal touch makes all the difference and maintains a semblance of normality and comfort within the home. We see the care we provide as a partnership with family caregivers, supporting both the practical and emotional needs of older adults and their families.
“Mum is really cared for. She is clean, warm and well-fed. Her needs are always met. The carers will let us know if Mum needs anything. They will let us know immediately if Mum is under the weather. Overall the carers are excellent and always have Mum's needs at the centre of their role. Even the doctor commented on how well she is cared for.”

For anyone caring for a relative, a break is not just a luxury, it is essential and can avoid burnout. Regular visits from a Care Professional providing additional support can allow some time out or peace of mind, while respite careand Live in Carefor short or long term periods allows family caregivers to rest and recharge, confident in the knowledge that their loved ones are in safe hands. Both can also provide an opportunity for older adults to enjoy the company of an additional person, bringing a fresh perspective and new conversation into their day.
