The York Personal Care team, here to help every step of the way
As we grow older, personal care tasks can become more difficult, affecting our routines and sense of independence. Everyday activities like bathing, dressing, or managing hygiene might start to feel overwhelming, and accepting help—especially with intimate or clinical needs—can be challenging. At Home Instead York, we believe that compassionate, respectful support makes all the difference. Our personal care services are designed to help older adults maintain their dignity and confidence, ensuring that care is as comfortable as it is effective.

Home Instead were recommended to us and we have found the care provided by them to be first class. My mum has dementia and all the carers treat her with respect and are very professional. Mum would not have been able to stay in her own home for as long as she has without this support. Many thanks to all the team.
Jane
After only a few weeks with us, Debbie has already gone above and beyond in caring for my mother. There is such a high level of concern for mum’s well-being. She has become more like a friend than a paid employee.
Wendy
Your caregivers are in a class of their own, with their friendliness, initiative and flexibility and together you have given us great peace of mind.

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.
