A steady presence at home for families in Madison, WI.

When your loved one nears the end of their life, there’s nothing quite as important as making them feel comfortable and supported. Whether you need around-the-clock care or part-time support, our Care Pros in Madison, WI partner with your family caregivers or hospice team to provide physical and emotional support for your loved one in their own home. And leaving that to us helps you focus on being there as a family—when family matters most.

Here’s how your local Home Instead can help:

Hands-on support – help with toileting, bathing, grooming, repositioning, and incontinence assistance.
A steady presence – companionship, calm reassurance, and someone there when the house feels quiet, or when it feels very full.
A break for the family – time to nap, take a shower, get a meal, or step outside, without worrying your loved one is alone.
Help around the house – light housekeeping, laundry, meal prep, and tidying up as visitors come and go.

Support that honors your loved one, and your family.

End-of-life care is personal. It’s an emotional time. Sometimes heartfelt. Sometimes exhausting and unpredictable. With this in mind, our local team in Madison, WI takes time to understand what comfort means to your loved one. What brings a sense of calm? What doesn’t?

We also want to get to know your family. How can we make it easier? How can we help you focus on being present as a family at a time when family matters most? Because while warmth and compassion are crucial, a steady presence and practical support can be just as important.

Care plans designed for comfort, dignity, and a sense of calm.

Whether you need a few hours a day, overnight support, or more continuous care, we’ll build a personalized care plan that supports your loved one’s comfort at home and provides some relief to you and your family caregivers.

If your family member is also receiving hospice care at home, we can work alongside that team to provide added support. In-home hospice care is an incredible service, but hospice professionals aren’t typically in the home around the clock. Our local Care Pros in Madison, WI can provide support between hospice visits, providing hands-on assistance with day-to-day care.
