Home Care Providers Owned by Home Instead in Essex

As the daughter of a Home Instead client, I cannot recommend them highly enough. When my father was under their care, they were truly invaluable - their knowledge, expertise and genuine compassion made what is an incredibly difficult time for any family so much easier to navigate. What really stood out was how proactive they were; they didn't just wait to be told what to do, they took the initiative and even helped to expedite getting the right professionals involved, including an Occupational Therapist, which made such a difference to Dad's care. They were also wonderfully flexible and accommodating whenever we had requests or needed things to change at short notice, always making us feel heard and supported. I am so glad my father was in their hands - it gave us real peace of mind and made life so much easier at a time when we needed it most. Thank you to the whole team.

Home Instead carried out an excellent review of my mother's needs and suggested an appropriate care plan to ensure she was safe. I would highly rate the quality of care my mother receives as well as the excellent customer service whenever I need to make changes to the plan. The carers spend quality time with my mum getting to know her and her needs. They are all happy, caring and very professional. I've been very impressed by how they raise concerns and act on these very quickly. I can highly recommend this company.

My mum and her sister have regular care from Home Instead. They both are very happy with the service. They like the ladies who come to look after them very much. They tell me that they feel that all the ladies genuinely care about them. Having Home Instead come to look after them means they can stay in their own home which I believe gives them peace and happiness.

Built nice relationship since commencing service and happy to extend our usage.

I would have no problem recommending Homeinstead Thurrock for your relatives care needs.

Got my mum a care plan with this company in January 2025. Easy to set up. Service provided was exemplary from set up to when my mum passed away. The caring staff were brilliant and I view the daily visits through the app on my phone as I wasn't that local to mum. The admin staff were brilliant. Can't fault anyone and I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for care providers.

I cannot praise this Company too highly.

Very grateful for their care and kindness.

Very pleasant and helpful.

Thankyou!

I can't praise Home Instead Braintree highly enough. The staff are genuinely caring and kind, making time to chat with Mum when they can, as well as helping her with tasks she finds more difficult these days such as changing bed clothes, ironing, putting out wet washing, setting up the heavy sun parasol in the garden in this heatwave.

The staff are thoughtful with the reports that they write so that I can stay in touch with what they did or found during their visits (eg. meds not taken, key left in front door so they couldn't get in the front, equipment problems etc), which makes it so much easier for me to support Mum when I live 50 minutes away. The app where they log their reports is a game changer.

Yes it could seem costly but being able to have an hour's visit, so that carers build rapport with Mum and actually have time to chat as well, is well worth it. Their visits give me peace of mind.

I feel my relative is extremely well looked after and have total trust in the team which is massively important.

Excellent care which enables my 92yr old father with dementia to stay living in the comfort and familiarity of his own home.. Communication is rapid and thoughtful.. Carers are kind, patient and provide wonderful support..

They were able to set up care for my mother at very short notice. The home assessment was thorough and all our questions were answered. A detailed care plan was developed. Despite the short notice we met the carer before she started and felt reassured. It is early days but so far we are very happy with how things are going and my mother now has the support she needs for showering and dressing.

I am happy with the service - completely!

Since joining Home Instead, it has been such a good experience. My problems, however small, are resolved very quickly. I have a lot more confidence knowing the care professional is coming, knowing she will resolve any issues. I get stressed very easily, and my carer comes and sorts me out. She is willing to help me in any way and will do anything for me. If I knew anyone who needed care, I would strongly recommend Home Instead.

My uncle was struggling to look after himself living at home by himself. He was 86 and ageing rapidly, both mentally and physically. He needed assistance with housework, cleaning, laundry and shopping. Most importantly he needed companionship. Having reluctantly agreed to use Home Instead he quickly realised how much help he did need and looked forward to the visits from his lovely carers who really looked after him well.

Carers are very kind, arrive on time, follow the care plan instructions however they respond & respect mums opinions adjusting the care plan as appropriate .

I cant recommend HomeInstead enough. All the staff are professional, kind and friendly. Mum enjoys their visits and they are a huge help. The office staff are always available and very helpful and professional. All the staff are amazing.

I send a thankyou to them all for giving me peace of mind with all that they do.
