Home Instead Senior Care Epsom & Mole Valley are renowned for the quality of care we provide our clients in their own homes. It’s award winning, it’s consistently excellent and it’s why we have become the only home care business in Epsom & Mole Valley that the Care Quality Commission rate as “outstanding”. In November 2019 we were also proud winners of Home Care Provider of the year at the prestigious Surrey Care Association. We’ve built this reputation because at Home Instead we love to care and that’s because we only recruit people that love to care. We believe in their quality and we allow them to provide the quality of care they strive to by the way we run our business.

We work hard to exceed our clients’ expectations and make them feel highly valued. We like to say, ‘To us, it’s personal’, and we stand for excellent quality of care and outstanding client service.
