22.01.2022 Keith's sailing day! Every Wednesday a group of senior gentlemen spend the morning sailing their model yachts on the Jackadder Lake. Marlen, Keith's CAREGiver thought this would be something different to do with Keith and he's never been there before. A few days later he said, in light of our "sailing day" he wanted to take me on a real sailboat. Marlen made a call to the South Perth Yacht Club and arranged for them to join the Sailability program. As you can see from the sm...ile on his face, it was a roaring success. He loved it and we just love this picture! Great work Marlen and Go Keith!

20.01.2022 Here at Home Instead we make sure that we partner with providers who offer our clients services they benefit from. Reflexology is increasingly being used to maintain health throughout retirement and receiving feedback like this, just confirms how much it is improving the lives of our clients. Have a read of a recent review from our client’s daughter about the reflexology and remedial massage she receives from Sarah Hoey Therapy Services, one of our approved service providers. Mum loved the appointment and Dot! She said her legs and feet felt so much better. Her complexion looked better too. It is a lovely idea for seniors to get these services. I think it is important especially as mum does not have a partner. It’s is a reminder of the importance of touch in any our life at any age

17.01.2022 Our team of CAREGivers always put the needs of you and your loved ones first. We pride ourselves on our flexibility, fitting in with your lifestyle and care requirements, whatever they may be.

16.01.2022 It's World Reflexology Week!! 21st to 27th September 2020 Every year in the last week of September reflexologists around the world organise events to celebrate World Reflexology Week, to promote awareness of this wonderful therapy. Reflexology is a type of massage that involves applying different amounts of pressure to the feet, hands, and ears. It’s based on a theory that these body parts are 'micro systems' of our body, and connect to our organs and body systems creating ba...lance and homeostasis. Reflexology enhances the body's own healing process. Benefits include pain, stress and anxiety reduction, increased circulation, digestion, vitality and quality of sleep. Our Home Instead CAREGivers & Admin team were lucky enough to have Sarah Hoey and two of her amazingly talented therapists, join us yesterday for a morning of Reflexology. They were left feeling blissful and relaxed afterwards! If you haven’t yet tried Reflexology, give it a go We highly recommend it!

Being so personal with her clients, Trish also puts herself out of her own comfort zone. Not a dancer, Trish has spent time on the Perth’s city Salsa dance scene late into the night, ensuring her client keeps his passion. Well done Trish on being a National CGOY finalist. We are super proud of you and all you do for our clients

05.01.2022 This was sent in to us by a clients husband. Thank you Graham for sharing your story with us! CRUISING WITH CAROLYN... In 2015 my wife Allanah suffered a massive stroke and holidays for us didn’t now seem feasible but then I reasoned that if we had good carers at our house why not at sea for example? Carolyn from Home Instead, had looked after Allanah regularly and had an established rapport with her, so she became critical in the unknown circumstances of a new liner and a new cruise. The ship was the Cunard Queen Elizabeth and we bought an accessible cabin forward with one adjacent for Carolyn. However, in a fit of misplaced kindness Cunard upgraded Carolyn to a larger cabin aft which meant she had to travail the length of the ship several times each day. She never complained. Allanah should ideally have had a special bed, but one wasn’t available and the pain this caused brought us near to leaving the ship. Ever resourceful Carolyn tracked our steward until extra pillows were provided and at last Allanah slept. As a companion Carolyn never put her own preferences before those of her client but shared in our discoveries of the ship, its shopping, and its cuisine. Her attention meant I could relax and enjoy the sea air. On disembarkation Allanah had difficulty getting out and the crews couldn’t help, Carolyn gently took charge and diplomatically maneuvered crew around her client otherwise we might still have been there! It is no exaggeration to say that without Carolyn our trip wouldn’t have been feasible. Home Instead and its people made future excursions are a reality for us.
