💜 It’s Self Care Week — and here’s your reminder:
To be the best family carer, you have to look after yourself too.

Caring for a loved one can be incredibly rewarding — but it can also be exhausting. Burnout is real, and taking a break isn’t selfish… it’s essential. 🌸

At Home Instead, our professional, compassionate care can step in when you need time to rest and recharge — giving you peace of mind that your loved one is in safe, trusted hands.

✨ You deserve a break. Message us here or visit our website to explore support that fits around your family.

💜 Can people with dementia still live a ‘normal’ life?
The answer is yes. Here’s how 👇

In this short video, a family carer, a Home Instead Registered Care Manager, and a Clinical Psychologist share simple, powerful ways to keep life meaningful after a dementia diagnosis.

✨ Key takeaways:
🫶 Relationships matter — patient, understanding care makes a huge difference.
🌸 Encourage joy — ask, “What do I enjoy, and how can I do more of it?”
🏡 Build a network — with the right support and home environment, independence is possible.

At Home Instead, we focus on personalised, relationship-led dementia care — helping people continue to live the lives they love, in the comfort of home.

🌍 It’s World Pneumonia Day

For older adults, prevention and early action make all the difference — especially as the colder months set in. ❄️

Our Home Instead Care Professionals are often the first to notice when something’s not quite right. From spotting changes in breathing or energy to encouraging check-ups and hydration, they help ensure symptoms are addressed quickly.

Let’s all look out for the health and wellbeing of the older people in our communities — together. 💜

🌟 Out and About in Our Community! 🌟

Our Community Engagement Officer, Lisa, has been out and about visiting some of our wonderful friends in the community who recently completed our Dementia Awareness & Community Support Workshop

She’s been proudly handing out certificates to those who are now better equipped to spot the signs of dementia and offer support to anyone who may visit their establishments living with the condition. 💜

A big well done and thank you to:

It’s Men’s Health Awareness Month

Let’s talk about something that often gets overlooked — helping the men in our lives open up about their health.

Small changes in mood, routine, or energy can be easy to miss, but early conversations can make a big difference.

Our Care Professionals are trained to build trusted relationships that help spot those early signs and gently encourage action — keeping the focus on living well for longer.

💬 Download our free “Spot the Signs” checklist to learn what to look for and how to start the conversation: careconversations.co.uk

🎆 Remember, Remember… Safety This Bonfire Night!

As fireworks light up the sky, remember the noise and cold can sometimes cause distress — especially for older people or those living with dementia. 💜

A few simple ways to help tonight:
🔇 Close windows and curtains to soften loud bangs
🧣 Keep warm with cosy layers and a hot drink
🤗 Offer company or a gentle distraction if the noise feels overwhelming

At Home Instead, we’re here to make sure older people stay safe, comfortable and connected — not just tonight, but all winter long. ❄️

✨ Message us here or visit our website to find out how we can help.

It’s Time to Talk About Men’s Health

We know it’s not always easy for men to open up or make time for their own wellbeing — especially as they get older.

This month, we’re shining a light on the small but important ways our Care Professionals support men’s health every day. From helping with medication routines to encouraging regular check-ups and social connection, it’s all about keeping the focus on living well.

If you’d like to start the conversation about care or support at home, you can contact us directly through our profile or visit our website.

💜 Home care the way it should be.

At Home Instead South Devon, we believe care should never feel rushed. That’s why our visits are a minimum of one hour, giving our Care Professionals the time to provide truly personal, unhurried support — whether that’s helping around the home, assisting with personal care, or simply making sure everything feels right.

We also make sure our clients are never greeted by unfamiliar faces. Each person we support has their own small, consistent team of Care Professionals, personally introduced so both clients and their families can really get to know who’s providing their care.

It’s this time, consistency, and connection that allows us to deliver care with dignity, trust, and genuine peace of mind.
