Every person living with Alzheimer’s has a story worth knowing and at Home Instead South Manchester, we take the time to listen.

Our Care Professionals don’t just provide support; they build trust and create space for meaningful connection. That might mean helping with daily tasks, encouraging gentle routines, or simply being a steady presence through uncertain moments.

We focus on what someone can do, supporting independence for as long as possible while always protecting dignity and comfort.

If you’re thinking about support for a loved one, we’re ready to talk when you are.

🏡 Compassionate Care at Home

September is World Alzheimer’s Month, a time to raise awareness and understanding of dementia and the vital role personalised care plays in supporting those living with memory challenges.

At Home Instead South Manchester, we’re proud to deliver care that feels like family, helping clients stay safe, comfortable, and independent in the place they love most - home.

💜 A big thank you to our dedicated Care Professionals who make every day brighter for those we support.

💃🕺 Dancing the afternoon away!

Our wonderful Care Professional Helen shared this heartwarming moment from a recent dementia club visit, where she and Pat enjoyed a good dance with friends.

At Home Instead, it’s not just about care at home – we love supporting our clients to stay active and connected, whether that’s enjoying a club, a walk, or a day out.

It’s all about creating meaningful moments and making every day a little brighter. 💜

🧠 September is World Alzheimer's Month

Not everyone with dementia forgets their loved ones. Not every story is the same. What many families share, though, is a quiet strength, built on routines, glances, and small moments that still connect.

This month, let’s talk more openly. Let’s learn more carefully. And let’s remind ourselves that behind every diagnosis is a person with a history, a sense of humour, and a need for dignity.

Whether you're supporting someone close to you or simply learning how to be more understanding in your community, your awareness matters.

🌟 Celebrating 34 Years of Care 🌟

August was a special month as we celebrated the dedication of six amazing Care Professionals – Suzann, Jess, Sherine, Helen, Pat and Rehana – who together have given an incredible 34 years of care and support to our clients. 💜

A special mention goes to Helen, who joined us in August 2016 and is now our longest-serving Care Professional. Over her nine years with us, she’s made a huge difference to so many lives and still loves her role just as much today. Caring has always come naturally to Helen – even as a child, she was looking after elderly neighbours. She really was born to care!

We recently sat down with this wonderful group to talk about what they love about their work and how we can make Home Instead an even better place to be. They came up with some fantastic ideas, including:
💡 Team-building activities to help Care Pros understand each other’s roles
💡 Cooking classes in the office for those new to cooking
💡 Care Pros sharing their expertise at team meetings
💡 A “buddy” system to welcome new Care Pros

We’re so proud of their passion and commitment, and we’ll be looking at how to bring these ideas to life.

A huge thank you to Suzann, Jess, Sherine, Helen, Pat and Rehana for everything you do. You’re the heart of Home Instead, and we’re so lucky to have you on our team. 💜

💗 At Home Instead, kindness comes first.

If you’re someone who naturally puts others at ease, who finds meaning in the little things, like sharing a smile, lending a hand, or taking time to listen , we’d love to hear from you.

As a Care Professional, you’ll bring comfort to older people who simply want to stay at home, surrounded by what’s familiar. You’ll be supported every step of the way, with training, encouragement, and hours that fit around your life.

💜 Celebrating Jane’s Incredible Career! 💜

The lovely Jane has decided it’s time to hang up her PPE and enjoy a very well-earned retirement.

For the past 6 and a half years, Jane has been a kind, supportive and much-loved member of our Care Professional team, helping so many clients and making a real difference in their lives.

As you can see from the photo, Jane trained alongside another of our wonderful Care Pros, Justine. She popped into the office this week where we celebrated her years of service, shared memories, and said a huge thank you for all her hard work and dedication.

Jane’s final visit will be today at 9pm – so please do join us in wishing her a very fond “goodbye and good luck” as she begins this exciting new chapter. 💐

🌸 A big thank you to Collins the Florists 🌸

Today we popped in to visit the wonderful team at Collins the Florists to say thank you for all their support over the last five years.

At Home Instead South Manchester, it’s our tradition to gift a bouquet of flowers to our Care Professionals at their yearly appraisal as a way of showing our appreciation. Collins always makes sure we have beautiful arrangements ready – with such kindness, efficiency, and care.

The ladies at Collins are always so welcoming (especially when Alison rushes in last-minute!), and it was lovely to be able to return the thanks in person today.

If you’re looking for flowers in the area, we can’t recommend them highly enough! 💐

🏡 Getting Ready for a Hospital Discharge
Coming home after a hospital stay can feel overwhelming. A few small changes can make things safer and more comfortable:

🔸 Clear walkways – Remove rugs, wires or anything that could cause a trip.
🔸 Check seating – Use chairs with armrests and firm cushions.
🔸 Keep essentials close – Place things like medication, water and glasses within easy reach.
🔸 Stay on one floor – Set up a bed and living space downstairs if stairs are a challenge.

A bit of planning can make all the difference for a smoother recovery.

💜 At Home Instead South Manchester, we form such special bonds with our clients, so it’s always bittersweet when it’s time to say goodbye.

Recently, we said a fond farewell to two lovely clients who have now moved into residential care. While it’s hard to end our visits, it’s wonderful to know the difference our Care Professionals have made.

Mr W kindly shared these words about his Care Professional, Justine:

✨ “Justine has dealt very efficiently with the cleaning and has helped very willingly with other matters. She has been a welcome visitor to the house - we shall miss her weekly visits.” ✨

A huge thank you to Justine for bringing her magic touch and making each week brighter for her clients. 💐

We wish Mr and Mrs W every happiness as they settle into their new home. 💜

Our story

Home Instead South Manchester aims to give the kind of care we would want for our only family members. We opened our office in April 2015 in Chorlton with the objective of providing high quality care at home for elderly people who want to remain happy and independent in their own homes. We believe that good care can’t be rushed and so our minimum visit time is one hour. Our CAREGivers are kind and friendly people who want to make a difference in their clients’ lives and who visit the same clients so they can build real relationships.

We want to make a difference in our community too, so we run a free singing group on a Tuesday afternoon at Parkfield Court where all are welcome, and we distribute a free “ What’s On Where” guide of 100 things to do in our local community.
