Hello, August 🌻

A new month is here, bringing fresh days to slow down, check in, and be kind to one another.

There’s comfort in familiar routines and small moments shared. Let’s carry that gentle spirit with us in the weeks ahead.

As an employee, Home Instead is an amazing company to work for. Home Instead are very accommodating for both staff and clients - I couldn’t have ever imagined finding a job where I could choose the hours I wanted to work to fit around my family. The training we receive is of a very high standard and the support we receive throughout every day is outstanding. The management and office team are all lovely and very approachable . Everything we do is appreciated and gets acknowledged on a regular basis. The clients we look after are always grateful and happy with the care we provide. It’s fair to say I absolutely love my job - Home Instead is like one big family who support each other and our amazing clients .

Because Friendship Matters at Every Age 𐀪𐀪

World Friendship Day is a reminder that friendship has no age limit.

It’s the warmth of conversation, the comfort of being remembered, and the gentle reassurance of someone who’s there to listen. For many older adults, friendship can be found in everyday moments. A kind voice, a thoughtful chat, or a regular visit that brings familiarity.

Let’s all take a little time to recognise the friendships that continue to grow, even later in life. A simple phone call, a handwritten note, or a quiet moment shared can mean more than we realise.✨

With July nearly behind us, now is a good time to check in on someone who may not always ask for company but quietly welcomes it.

If you’re visiting someone with memory loss, there’s no need to plan an activity. Calm, quiet time, like listening to music or flipping through an old magazine can offer a welcome sense of calm.

Your presence might bring more comfort than you realise.

1 in 3 adults over 65 fall at least once a year and that risk increases with age. But falling doesn’t have to be part of getting older.

🛋️ Fall Prevention Tip:
Take a walk through your home and look for simple hazards:
✔ Loose rugs
✔ Cluttered walkways
✔ Poor lighting
✔ Unstable furniture

Small adjustments can make a big difference to safety and confidence at home.

👣 Want more advice on staying steady on your feet?
Our team at Home Instead offers personalised support to help older people live safely and comfortably at home.

You’ll Do More Than Care, You’ll Give Peace of Mind

At Home Instead Bedford, the care we offer goes far beyond ticking off a list.

You might be helping someone with personal care, preparing a simple meal, reminding them to take medication, or just being a reassuring presence over a quiet cup of tea. These are just some of the ways our Care Professionals help people feel safe and at ease at home.

Families tell us it’s not just what we do, it’s how we do it. Your calm, thoughtful approach offers them comfort too, knowing someone they trust is there.

If that sounds like the kind of work you'd value, apply today.

Did you know? Just 10 to 15 minutes of gentle sunshine a day can help your body produce Vitamin D, which supports bone strength and helps maintain a healthy immune system.

💡 In later life, it’s especially important to enjoy the sunshine safely. A stroll in the garden or sitting by the window can make a real difference. Don’t forget a sunhat and a little sunscreen if you're heading outdoors!

Home Instead Bedford is here to help you enjoy the sunshine, safely.
