Home Instead - Wimbledon & Kingston

Home Instead - Wimbledon & Kingston Outstanding rated! Home Instead Wimbledon & Kingston provides care and support to older people in their own homes. Not difficult, but so important.

Home Instead's ethos is to 'change the face of ageing' and it is with extreme passion and commitment that we are here in your local community. Just because you are elderly doesn't mean you have to stop living. By providing a service of companionship and care to someone when they need it is so simple but can be got so wrong! I have experienced the wrong side of care for both my parents who I lost t

o motor neurone disease and breast cancer a few years ago. It was at a time when I had two small boys and not enough time to give to my parents. I had to place my trust in others' and when good care is not provided, it can have such an impact on everyone concerned. I want Home Instead to become your trusted companion for your loved one and for us to be an extension of your own family. We will do what we say we are going to do when we say we are going to! The same person will come at the right time on the right day to do what you want. Our clients include individuals who have come to us themselves, older children who have referred their parents or relatives, people who receive direct payments from the local authority and clients referred to us by the Primary Care Trust. Regardless of how you come to Home Instead, it is my goal to provide the same level of help and care that I wanted for my parents. "It's great to phone Mum and ask her what she's been doing and for her to tell me about her outings and visits. She loves Donna!" - Mrs H's daughter, Wimbledon

Dementia care is about so much more than helping with everyday tasks.

It is knowing when someone needs reassurance. Recognising when something does not seem quite right. Finding different ways to communicate. Understanding the importance of familiar routines, favourite memories and the little things that help someone feel like themselves.

Our Care Professionals develop real expertise in supporting people living with dementia and Alzheimer’s, while always seeing the person first.

Thank you for the knowledge, care and dedication you bring to every visit.

'The Earlier You Know, The More You Can Do: A Dementia Diagnosis Matters.'
..But why does an earlier dementia diagnosis matter?

Because knowing what you are dealing with can give you something incredibly valuable, time.

• Time to understand the diagnosis.
• Time to ask questions.
• Time to explore available support.
• Time to talk about the future.
• Time to make decisions together.
• And, importantly, time to focus on continuing to live well.

A diagnosis does not change who someone is. There can still be friendships, routines, hobbies, days out, laughter and meaningful moments ahead.

This World Alzheimer’s Month, we want more families to know that seeking answers does not mean giving up independence. It can be an important step towards protecting it.

For Clive, music is a powerful way to connect with memories, emotions and the person he has always been.

Sitting proudly in front of his collection of vinyl records, there are lots of simple ways Care Pros and family carers can use his love of music to encourage meaningful reminiscence:

• Take out the records: Let Clive hold them, feel the sleeves, and enjoy the artwork.

• Play favourite albums: Familiar songs often unlock stories and emotions.

• Ask open questions: “Who did you listen to this with?” “Did you see this artist live?”

• Explore his music journey: Chat with family about when he started collecting and which genres shaped his life. We want to know who Clive is, not just his diagnoses.

How do you support your clients through reminiscence activities?

A dementia-friendly community does not only support the person living with dementia. It also supports the family around them.

Sons, daughters, partners and friends may be caring, worrying, organising appointments, checking in regularly and trying to understand what their loved one needs.

Community support can make a real difference.

That might mean offering a listening ear, sharing local dementia-friendly activities, being understanding if plans change, or helping someone feel less alone.

Local groups, memory cafés, singing sessions, gentle exercise classes and community events can all provide valuable connection.

At Home Instead, we know that dementia care works best when families feel supported too.

No one should have to navigate dementia alone.

This morning we were blown away by the beautiful words our Care Professional, Anushka has written to individual members of our office team, particularly her Field Care Supervisor, her Scheduler and her Trainer.

Anushka has been working with us whilst studying at Kingston University. She has been awarded a first class honors as a result of her hard work, proving it is possible to balance being a professional carer and a student at the same time.

Thank you Anushka for being such a great Care Pro, but also for taking the time to write such heartfelt notes.

And well done team for supporting Anushka so well.
