Home Instead Lewes District and Uckfield

Home Instead is home care with a difference, and we pride ourselves on being different to other care providers.

We are owned and operated independently and run with a team of staff with family roots deep in our community. We want to treat our care professionals as well as we do our clients and provide a better way of working.

So here are some things you WON'T get from us!

We don't do 15 minute calls - You will get a minimum of one hour with each client

We don't leave you unsure of work - We offer guaranteed hours with a range of availabilities

We don't under pay you - We offer above Living Wage rates

We don't do just personal care - We offer companionship, home help and live-in support

We don't treat you all the same - We offer bespoke availabilities to meet our Care Professionals needs

So what to expect of a day as a Care Professional?

Whether you're supporting someone to get up and ready for the day, taking them shopping or just sitting down remising while looking at photo albums, the care you provide for Home Instead will be a positive impact on that persons life. Offering Personal Care, Home Help, Companionship or Live-In, we make the difference others don’t.
