It was difficult to encourage my mam to have support as she is a very independent lady. She was very nervous and not very happy about me talking her into having a companion. It took a few weeks but once mam settled into the visits she now couldn't imagine her life without them. This was down to the
professionalism of HomeInstead, making her feel at ease and supporting her in a person centred way. The carers and office staff have been so lovely with her. Mam feels her carer goes above and beyond to find things for them to do. Her carer is very attentive and she listens. She remembers everything mam says and relates back to things weeks later. She treats mam with dignity and encourages her independence. Mam can get very lonely at times and really looks forward to her visits. She laughs so much and the smile on her face when she comes in after her visit is like pure gold.
Mam now feels like HomeInstead are part of her family.
Reply from Chloe Brown, Head of Client Experience at Home Instead (South East Northumberland)Thank you so much for your kind and heartfelt review. It means a great deal to hear how your mam has grown to feel comfortable, supported, and genuinely happy with her companion. We're so pleased that our team has been able to build such a trusting relationship with her while encouraging her independence and bringing joy to her visits. Your words truly reflect what we strive for every day-thank you for letting us be part of your family.

Home Instead cared for my father for the last few months of his life. My brothers and I were becoming increasingly worried about our father's ability to care for himself as he was living on his own and we all lived far away.
I contacted Home Instead and knew I had made the right choice straight away
at the initial meeting. The staff were very well organised and very thorough at information gathering asking lots of questions and taking a lot of notes. .I could see straight away that they were very committed and took their work very seriuously.
After an initial assessment period of a few weeks I was really pleased to learn that Home Instead had decided my father needed visits twice every day. It really put my mind at rest to know he was being visited regularly and we had access to twice daily reports of what was happening with my father.
They were also a godsend when my father passed away sorting out what needed to be done. I don't know how we would have coped without them.
Reply from Jo Hooper, Registered Manager at Home Instead North HertsThank you so much for sharing your experience, and for trusting us with your father's care during such an important time. From the first meeting, our team works hard to understand each person's needs, so it's lovely to hear that you felt reassured by the thorough assessment and the care we put into planning his support. Knowing that the twice-daily visits and regular updates gave you and your brothers peace of mind-especially from a distance-means a great deal to us. We're also grateful for your kind words about the support you received when your father passed away. It's a privilege to be there for families, both practically and emotionally, when things are at their most difficult. Thank you again for your thoughtful feedback. It truly was an honour to support your father and your family.

My family and I are beyond grateful to the Home Instead caregivers and office staff for the dedicated, professional way that they looked after my parents in their bungalow over a period of six years - making it possible for them both to, ultimately, pass away in their comfortable home (albeit just over
two years apart).
The kindness of the caregivers knew no bounds, and someone was always available in the office to respond to, and support us with, any changing situations (especially health-wise) that elderly people almost inevitably experience.
I can honestly say that we could not have coped without the Home Instead team from a practical point of view but, additionally, the friendship they gave Mum and Dad (for example - playing Scrabble, helping with crosswords, chatting together) ensured that daily life for my parents was varied and interesting.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Home Instead to anyone looking for professional, caring, in-home support.
Reply from Jo Hooper, Registered Manager at Home Instead North HertsThank you so much for taking the time to share such a heartfelt review. It means the world to our whole team to know that we were able to support your parents in the way they deserved, and to help them remain in the comfort of their own home throughout their later years. Our care pros and office team will be truly touched by your words. We know how quickly situations can change, and it's incredibly important to us that families feel supported, listened to and reassured every step of the way. It's wonderful to hear that you felt that consistency and kindness throughout your parents' care. Your memories of the little moments - Scrabble games, crosswords, chats - capture exactly what we strive for: companionship, dignity and a sense of joy in everyday life. Thank you again for your recommendation, and for trusting us to be part of your parents' lives for so many years. It has been our privilege.

We cannot thank the team at Home Instead Burbage enough for the care and kindness they showed to our Nanna.
The admin staff were always supportive, organised and compassionate, with excellent communication throughout.
Nanna was initially reluctant about having "companions", but that quickly changed
thanks to her wonderful carers, Steph and Zoe. They didn't just provide care - they built a genuine friendship with her. Nanna truly looked forward to their visits and loved their company.
They were always punctual, kept us updated, and were quick to notice changes in Nanna's condition, which we really appreciated. Their positivity and warmth meant so much to our whole family.
They even visited Nanna in hospital, which showed just how much they truly cared.
Steph and Zoe made a real difference to Nanna's final chapter and we will always be incredibly grateful.

In our experience, Home Instead (Bradford/Leeds) has been the most disappointing care provider we have used. Communication from management was poor, and concerns often felt dismissed rather than addressed. Emails were not always acknowledged, and follow-up was inconsistent, making issues difficult to
resolve.
We experienced problems with staff training and practical care. Some carers appeared unsure about safe transfers, and family members were occasionally asked to assist. On one occasion, a morning visit could not be completed, which was very distressing.
We also raised concerns about infection control, an unlocked front door, compression stockings not reapplied, wound care confusion, and medication discrepancies between records and the dosset box.
Overall, we lacked confidence in the standard of care and would not use this provider again.
Reply from Martin Waite, Owner at Home Instead (Bradford & West Leeds)This review does not provide an accurate reflection of the care delivered or the way communications were managed during this period.
At Home Instead we operate to strict standards of training, safety and record-keeping. Our Care Professionals follow regulated moving and handling practices and do not undertake tasks outside of those guidelines - regardless of client family members requesting us to do so. Any concerns are reviewed promptly, investigated where required, and addressed in line with our procedures, with clear documentation maintained.
Some matters referenced relate to clinical or external healthcare responsibilities, including wound care and aspects of medication management, overseen and prescribed by NHS professionals and pharmacists. We work alongside these services and escalate concerns appropriately as part of our standard practice.
This review is not consistent with the standards we deliver or the experience of the families we support.

in their interactions with her.
The person who manages the rota is excellent at being flexible and responsive to the changing situation of my mother's needs. I would recommend Home instead to anyone requiring care provision at home.

I would like to express my sincere appreciation for the care and support provided to my Mum. Living with dementia can be incredibly challenging, not only for the individual but also for the family, and the difference your team makes does not go unnoticed.
The staff consistently treat my Mum with genuine
care, patience, and kindness. They approach her with dignity and respect, taking the time to understand her needs and ensuring she feels safe and comfortable. It is very reassuring to know she is being looked after by people who truly care about her wellbeing.
In addition to supporting my Mum, the team also provides valuable help to my Dad. Simple but important tasks such as changing bedcovers, tidying up, and offering general support make a significant difference to his day-to-day life. This extra level of care helps ease the pressure on him and allows him to focus more on spending quality time with my Mum.

They are both such lovely people and very supportive of our staff that it's very easy to provide them with the support they need. Thank you also for being so fabulous at organsing everything yourself as well and doing all the "behind-the-scenes" support work which makes our lives a lot easier as well.

I cannot stress enough how wonderful Home Instead have been and the reassurance they brought to my mum and our family. After sadly experiencing poor care with previous companies and seeing the negative effect that had on my mum, finally having a company that truly care about your loved one was life
changing. My mum transformed, it was a joy to see how much she adored her carers and they felt the same. It was important for us that Mum had the same carers, who really got to know her and her routine and I was very pleased to hear that it was just as important to the Home Instead staff. I didn't need to worry anymore about how Mum would be treated, safe in the knowledge that she was receiving the best possible care and I could step away. In my opinion Home Instead are the gold standard of care and I only wish that we had them from the start. The carers became like family to us. Home Instead genuinely care about their clients and nothing is too much trouble. We are so grateful to them all.
Reply from Jo Hooper, Registered Manager at Home Instead North HertsThank you so much for your heartfelt words. It means the world to our whole team to know that our care pros made such a positive difference to your mum and your family. Consistency, compassion and truly getting to know each person we support are so important to us, and we're delighted that this brought comfort and confidence to you all. Your mum, and your family, became very special to us too. Thank you for trusting us.

Kitty said she was really pleased with the care given to her by Home Instead. She was treated with respect and enjoyed the time she spent with all her carers. Kitty loved to chat and really enjoyed their company and felt safe and well looked after.
Reply from Karina Brown, Director at Home Instead Bromley, Chislehurst & OrpingtonThank you for reviewing the home care provided to your friend. She was a wonderful lady and the team thoroughly enjoyed supporting her. The companionship based care that Home Instead is so well known for suited Kitty perfectly - unhurried, person centred and practical whilst also providing plenty of opportunity for a chat and keep her lively brain ticking over.

Carers are most pleasant and helpful. They soon get to know your preferences, and will go the extra mile to help. No request seems to difficult. I like the way new carers are introduced to you first. Although I have a number of carers, they all bring something different to the role
Reply from Karina Brown, Director at Home Instead Bromley, Chislehurst & OrpingtonThank you for reviewing our homecare services. It's great to hear how pleasant and helpful you find your carers and of course it's lovely that they are providing you with care that really meets your needs and reflects your preferences. We always try to go the extra mile and do what we can to support each client and so I'm pleased that has been your experience too.

I could not be happier with the care and support given to my mother-in-law from Home Instead Bromley. She has a group of carers who look after her on rotation 3 times a day 7 days a week, she is very comfortable with them and knows them all well. They are always very caring, friendly, professional,
and respectful, both with mum and the rest of the family. The communication between the family and the carers, and the family and the care manager is excellent and the care manager always keeps me informed if they feel there are any issues with mums health that need addressing, or if the GP needs to be contacted for any reason. The carers always turn up on time, and if for any reason they are not able to be there on time ( which is extremely rare) they make sure we are aware that they are running late, or that another career will attending if required, and they never send someone who mum has not met. Overall I would highly recommend Home Instead to anyone who require care at home.
Reply from Karina Brown, Director at Home Instead Bromley, Chislehurst & OrpingtonWhat a lovely 5* review. Thank you for specifically recognising the benefits of excellent communication in terms of supporting your mum and keeping you informed (with her consent). Thank you also for recognising the reliable time keeping and the fact that in situations when cover is required, we never send a stranger to support her but instead her client service manager, who knows her well, introduces a replacement. Most lovely is knowing that you have found us all to be caring, friendly, professional and respectful. I'll share this review with your mum's team - I know they will really appreciate it.

I have received care to supervise my washing and dressing 5 days a week, Monday to Friday from 8-9am from Home Instead Bromley since October 2025 to the present date.
The service I have received has been exceptional. I have two regular carers who are wonderful caring and helpful. On a few rare
occasions when they could not visit, Home Instead have sent and introduced someone new who have also been excellent.
I have also required help getting to the hospital and Home Instead have supplied me with carers, who I know, to take me and bring me home which has been so reassuring and, with their help, has taken the strain out of getting to and from the hospital and has also been a relief to have their support.
I have found all the staff, office, management and carers to be extremely kind approachable and helpful.
I have told many friends of my dealings with this company as I highly recommend them.
Reply from Karina Brown, Director at Home Instead Bromley, Chislehurst & OrpingtonThis is a lovely review. Thank you so much. It's great that we have been able to help you with your personal care as well as providing practical and emotional support at hospital appointments. I'm so happy that you have found your dealings with all areas of of staff team to be excellent.

This is the fourth parent that I have employed Home Instead to look after , they are always punctual arriving at the agreed time and I would wholeheartedly
recommend them. The carers are excellent and the office staff always accommodating and very helpful.

We first needed carers for my husband in June 2025, we were immediately confident in the care he was given. We had a team of about eight lovely ladies and he grew to look forward to their coming and they were always kind caring and the actual care they gave him was above and beyond any expectation.
They not only looked after my husband but me as well and I used to look forward to their visits each day they would often prepare his lunch or do some housework or the washing up which helped me to be with him more.He never had any skin problems his mental capacity seemed to improve. in the last few months of his life when he needed more care, they just expertly cared for him and nothing was too much for them. I would highly recommend Home Instead to anyone needing any care. Thank you so much for looking after us both.
Reply from Karina Brown, Director at Home Instead Bromley, Chislehurst & OrpingtonThank you for this wonderful and heartfelt 5* review. It was an absolute pleasure supporting your husband and ensuring that his final months were as enjoyable and comfortable as possible whilst also providing you with some respite which enabled you to spend as much time with him as possible. It is true that his mental capacity seemed to improve and we often find this occurs when the right care, which is respectful, not hurried and shows a genuine interest in the person and knowledge of how best to communicate is in place. Thank you for allowing us into your home and trusting us to care for your husband at such a sensitive time of your lives together.

Home Instead clearly understood the family needs to provide care for my mother, and allocated a team of carers who were very professional, compassionate and were crucial to my mothers well-being and a very important stable factor to my mothers day.
My mother looked forward to seeing regular carers
who were always very proficient and well trained in providing meals and personal care as required.
This engagement gave the family peace and reassurance that our mother was in very safe and capable hands with the team of carers that looked after her.
Very highly recommended.
