Home Instead - West Lancashire and Chorley An 'Outstanding' rated local care provider, with a range of diverse care services available.

A local service for adults and older people, Home Instead is a non-medical provider of specialist services; complex care needs, respite care, continuing healthcare services, specialist dementia care, rapid response services, case management services, companionship, meal preparation, light housework, medication reminders, errands, local transportation and personal care. Based on our tailored person centred care plan, our Care Professionals encourage, assist, and stimulate clients in a variety of daily activities that help improve their quality of life and help maintain their independence. All of these services assist clients to stay comfortable at home for a longer period of time. The clear Home Instead focus is on providing a high quality care service that is person centred and meets the client’s actual needs, rather than the historical and outdated model of a "task driven and time restricted" service. This refreshing approach to providing high quality care in the local community is reflected throughout everything we do and our most recent Care Quality Commission (CQC) un-announced inspection report, contains independent and unsolicited feedback and details on what our clients actually feel and think about our care services, Care Pros and staff. From the inspection carried out by the CQC, our services have been rated 'Outstanding' which we are very proud of and continue to thrive and achieve such accolades by effectively providing the mast amazing care our Care Pros deliver on a daily basis. We make sure our Care Pros and Clients are well matched to ensure the best service and with our minimum one-hour care calls, relationships will be made that is a connection in friendship rather than just Client and care provider.

What if your next job gave you the time to really get to know the person you’re supporting?

Being a Care Professional is about more than completing a list of tasks. It’s about conversation, companionship, building trust and helping someone continue living life their way at home, safely and securely.

You don’t necessarily need previous care experience. What matters most is being kind, dependable and genuinely interested in making a difference to someone’s day.

If you’re looking for a rewarding role where your time and personality really matter, a career in home care could be worth exploring.

Would you know how to recognise the signs of a stroke?

Today is World Stroke Day, an important opportunity to learn something that could make a real difference to someone around you.

The FAST message is a simple way to remember some of the main signs:

🙂 F – Face: Has one side of their face dropped? Can they smile?
💪 A – Arms: Can they raise both arms and keep them there?
🗣️ S – Speech: Is their speech slurred, confused or difficult to understand?
⏱️ T – Time: If you notice any of these signs, call 999 immediately.

Stroke symptoms can happen suddenly, and even if they seem to disappear after a short time, urgent medical help is still needed.

Knowing these signs could help you recognise when a family member, friend, Client or someone else in your community may need urgent help.

The World Stroke Organisation has created a useful Spot Stroke resource with short videos, information and an interactive quiz to help you learn the signs and test your knowledge:

🔗 https://www.world-stroke.org/world-stroke-day-campaign/spot-stroke

Take a few minutes to learn the signs and consider sharing this post so someone else can learn them too.

🕰️🍂 A little reminder before you head to bed tonight...

In the early hours of Sunday, the clocks go back by one hour as we move from British Summer Time to Greenwich Mean Time.

For many of us, that simply means an extra hour in bed. But it can also be a useful reminder to check in with an older relative or loved one as the evenings begin to feel noticeably darker.

A few simple things can help:

💡 Make sure hallways, stairs and entrances are well lit
⏰ Check clocks and household timers have been updated
📞 Keep regular calls and visits in the diary
🏡 Try to keep familiar routines as consistent as possible

Small checks can make a real difference to confidence and reassurance at home.

At Home Instead West Lancashire & Chorley, we know how important routine, companionship and familiar surroundings can be for older people.

So before the clocks change, why not take a moment to check in with someone you care about? 💚

We’re delighted to recognise Sarah as our latest Star of the Month 🌟

Although Sarah is one of our newer Care Professionals, she is already showing the care, attentiveness and initiative that can make such a difference to the people we support.

She recently went above and beyond for a Client, taking a proactive approach and helping ensure an important part of their usual routine was not overlooked.

It’s those small but meaningful moments, noticing, acting and genuinely looking out for someone, that help build trust and provide reassurance for Clients and their families.

We’re very pleased to have Sarah as part of the team and to recognise the positive impact she is already making.

A huge congratulations, Sarah, and thank you for everything you’re bringing to the role 💚👏

Today is World Menopause Day 2026, an opportunity to encourage greater understanding and more open conversations about menopause and midlife health.

This year’s theme is “Chronic Pain at Midlife”, highlighting an issue that can affect women during and after the menopause transition, but may sometimes be overlooked or underestimated.

Everyone’s experience of menopause is different. What matters is that people feel listened to, understood and able to access reliable information and appropriate support when they need it.

At Home Instead West Lancashire & Chorley, compassion and understanding are at the heart of what we do. Not only for our Clients, but for our Care Professionals, colleagues and wider community too.

Sometimes, simply listening and taking somebody’s experience seriously can make a real difference.
