When appetite is low, aim for “good enough”, not perfect.

Try smaller portions and familiar favourites, with drinks within easy reach. If chewing is tiring, softer choices can help without making meals feel “special”. Sitting together, even for 10 minutes, can make eating feel easier.

If meals are often skipped, jot down what’s best tolerated and when, it can really help families and clinicians.

Save for later.

This shows that technology can be a vital tool in tackling social isolation.We are committed to bridging this digital gap and exploring innovative ways to keep older adults connected📲

Eating alone now and then is not a problem. Many people enjoy the quiet. What families often do not realise is that when someone regularly eats every meal on their own, it can slowly affect appetite, routine and mood. Food becomes something to get through rather than something to enjoy.

Having company, even once or twice a week, can change that experience. A shared meal, a bit of conversation or simply someone sitting nearby can help bring structure back to the day and make mealtimes feel more human again. It is a small thing that often makes a bigger difference than families expect.

If this feels familiar and you would like a friendly conversation about companionship visits, our team in Lincoln can support you with all your needs - contact us on ☎️01522 301000

Checking in on someone is more than asking “How are you?”
Older adults often reply “I’m fine”, even when life feels challenging for them.
Try gentle, open questions instead, such as:

• “What has your week been like?”
• “Is anything feeling a bit harder at home?”
• “What would make things easier for you at the moment?”

Then listen without rushing to fix everything. Feeling heard can be as helpful as any practical support

We provide calm, reliable support with medication reminders, organisation, and assistance, helping clients take their medicines safely and correctly. This support not only promotes confidence and independence, but also helps reduce worry and uncertainty.

By offering consistent, compassionate care in the comfort of home, we help ensure peace of mind for clients and reassurance for their families - every single day. 💚

People who come from retail, hospitality or admin often excel in care, not because the work is similar, but because the values are.

They know how to listen, notice the small things and take pride in doing a job properly.

Our longer, un-rushed visits with clients mean there is time to slow down, build relationships and give the kind of support that feels thoughtful rather than rushed, something many people have been missing in previous roles.

If this sounds like the kind of work you would enjoy, speak with our team in Lincoln on 01522 301000

If you care for a loved one, it is okay to admit that you feel a little overwhelmed and fatigued.

Try to plan one small break each week, even if it is just a quiet hour to yourself.

Let a trusted friend or relative know how things really are and accept offers of help with shopping, lifts or sitting with your loved one.

You do not have to manage everything alone, and Home Instead is here whenever you need an extra pair of hands.
