Home Instead (Portsmouth)
from Francis G (Client) published on 19 November 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

The care provided by Home Insted is exemplary apart from the change of carers for a specific day!
They did try to introduce me to new carers as they did for the first one but the replacement was not as good!

Reply from Helen Brown, Franchise Owner at Home Instead (Portsmouth)

Its been our pleasure to continue to look after you. Sometimes it takes a little while for new relationships to build when team member move on. We're glad that these are now settled as per your most…read more

Review of
Home Instead (Farnborough, Farnham & Fleet)
from Jane E (Daughter of Client) published on 12 November 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

We couldn't be happier with the care that Home Instead provides for our 95-year-old dad, who lives alone and has dementia. The carers are absolutely wonderful - gentle, patient, and genuinely caring. They visit every day and take the time to ensure Dad is comfortable, safe, and able to stay living independently

in spite of his health issues.
The team is proactive and observant, often picking up on small things that my brother and I (who live far away) can then follow up on. It's such a comfort knowing that Dad is in good hands. Communication is excellent - the manager is always responsive by email and follows through on everything promptly.
Home Instead has made a huge difference for Dad and for us as a family. We're truly grateful for their professionalism, compassion, and consistency. Highly recommended!

Reply from Lauren Mitchell, Business Development Manager at Home Instead (Farnborough, Farnham & Fleet)

Hi Jane,

from Ann W (Sister of Client) published on 28 October 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

So happy with this company. The carers are very friendly and my brother is well looked after by them. If I have any concerns I contact the office and speak with caring people who know who my brother is and not just a person on their books. Also appreciate the fact if they have any concerns they contact

me. Would definitely recommend this company for their care and compassion. Anything I'm concerned about they put right and have Len's best interest at heart

Review of
Home Instead (Farnborough, Farnham & Fleet)
from Richard T (Son of Client) published on 20 October 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

For roughly 4 years we used Home Instead Farnborough for my mother's care. Having had a few falls I had to put her in a respite home while I arranged for her house to be fitted with hand rails etc.. Fortunately, when it was time to move her back home I hit the jackpot with Home Instead and their carers.
From

initial 2 visits a day, then 3 and finally 4 they were absolute stars with no missed visits whatsoever. My mother, my sister and I were very impressed and the regular carers pretty much became my mother's friends and she looked forward to her visits.
At the end of March this year my mother had a nasty fall in the evening and had activated her falls alarm. I was about an hours drive away but one of the office staff drove over to assist. Sadly my mother ended up in hospital, never to return home. The carers still visited her around lunchtime each day until she passed away.
They always brought a smile to my mother's face and I cannot thank the carers and the office staff enough.

Reply from Lauren Fridge, Business Development Manager at Home Instead (Farnborough, Farnham & Fleet)

Thank 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 make a difference to your mother's life and provide…read more

Review of
Home Instead (Basingstoke)
from Valerie M (Client) published on 6 October 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Home Instead, Basingstoke, was completely professional from my first contact with them. They arranged my visits very quickly and I was able to tailor the help to my needs. The staff who have been providing my care have been efficient, friendly and extremely hard-working. They have made a tremendous

difference to my life when I was experiencing great difficulties in completing even simple tasks. I would thoroughly recommend them.

Reply from Bob Nicholson, Owner at Home Instead (Basingstoke)

Val, thank you for your lovely review. It was a great pleasure supporting you through your recovery and I will pass your kind words on to the rest of the team.

I have been a client with Home Instead for the past 6 months. I have a carer twice a week to help me in the shower. I have 2 carers attending me and they are very professional and friendly. I look forward to the days when either of them are here. I would recommend Home Instead to anyone looking for

Home Instead (Havant, Waterlooville, Emsworth & Hayling)
from M F (Son of Client) published on 16 September 2025 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

The Home Instead team have been caring for my mother for 3 years. They also cared for my father until he passed away last year. In short, the whole team, carers, and back-office is outstanding. They have provided tailored support, combining empathy and rigour, throughout this time. At every stage, the

care has evolved in-step with my parents' needs. Carers and back-office support my father in his final months with love and sensitivity. They have shown the same personal care, love and empathy looking after my mother as she has made the difficult transition to life without my father. A great strength has been the continuity of the team. They know her. She knows and trusts them. They have become an extension of the family.

Reply from Mark Gettinby, Managing Director at Home Instead (Havant, Waterlooville, Emsworth & Hayling)

Thank you for this. The team have worked in partnership with the whole family at every step for years, literally, to get the best possible outcomes. The team have loved being able to make a real…read more

Overall Experience

Excellent care.
Worried that you wouldn't be able to find 2 permanent carers, but now seems to be solved.
I need a 1 montly receipt for insurance purposes.

Reply from Mark Gettinby, Managing Director at Home Instead (Havant, Waterlooville, Emsworth & Hayling)

Delighted to hear that the care is excellent. A statement for insurance purposes is an unusual issue but now we know about the need for that we can fix that very easily and quickly.

from Helen D (Daughter of Client) published on 11 September 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My family and I can't thank you enough for the last few months. For our dad, you brought dignity, kindness and humour to a difficult time for a very private man. For our mother, you brought physical and mental relief, friendship, and assurance that our dad was being beautifully taken care of. For us

children and grandchildren, the obvious comfort and happiness you brought to these last few months was wonderful, You enabled our mum to be his wife again, and our time with him to be relaxed and happy.
Each care giver brought their own energy and world with them.I love that the caregivers felt able to be so open and create such string relationships with our parents in such a short space of time. It made all the difference in the world. Our love and thanks to eight members of staff in particular. We are quite a medical family and have worked with many home care companies. Home Instead are absolutely outstanding and I will recommend you to everyone.

from Justine W (Daughter of Client) published on 29 August 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

I can highly recommend Home Instead for your care needs..I was very nervous about putting something in place regarding my Dad but , a particular member of staff was fantastic, nothing was a problem, her communication with me was faultless.
When it came to our first day I needn't have worried so much.

If I could have hand pick someone to be with my Dad I would have chosen a particular male carer, he was kind, calm and thoughtful, he put me at ease.

from David H (Husband of Client) published on 22 August 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Compassion and sensitivity are two hallmarks of Home Instead which have taken my wife and I through a very challenging period of our lives - flexibility, unquestioning, reassuring and absolute reliability being among the others. Stemming from effective management and communication across the board,

ensuring there are no cross wires, engaging Home Instead during the course of our recovery from major surgery has been our good fortune. We have no hesitation in recommending Home Instead for all levels of personal care.

Home Instead (Portsmouth)
from Maria S (Daughter of Client) published on 15 August 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Home Instead have been great with my elderly mum (who can be very stubborn and set in her ways). The visitors are always professional and report any issues they have or find with my mum. Each visit is reported on individually and we have access to this it gives a feel for what has happened at the visits.
The

office is great at reporting back on any issues or a change in visitor in plenty of time, due to unforeseen circumstances, in order to give my mum heads up.
Would highly recommend this service to anyone.

from Rosie M (Granddaughter of Client) published on 24 July 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Home Instead is an exceptional company. Every staff member I have had contact with has been beyond amazing. The team have supported my nan with companionships visits as a way to slowly introduce additional help which she is on the cusp of needing. This slow and steady approach has been really beneficial

to her by building relationships. The way they identify the most appropriate staff member to work with the service user is so unique but such a vital and kind step to ensure my nan had everything she needed. A particular staff member who visited my nana had similar interests to her and therefore they were able to have a really meaningful visit providing such amazing individualised care. Her words for one of the team was "anyone company who has the home care consultant working for them would be lucky". You can see straight away just from initial conversations why this company are rated outstanding!!

from Robert S (Son of Client) published on 3 June 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My mother continues to be extremely well cared for by the team that visit her. Each carer has developed a very good relationship with her and she regards each as a friend. All caring tasks are performed well and every carer treats my mother with respect and kindness. I have full confidence in both

the care team and the administrative team who keep me informed when the need arises. I think it is a testament to the success of the whole team effort that my mother is able to continue to live in her own home, as she wishes, even as she approaches her 100th birthday. My sincere thanks to you all from my mum and me.

from R H (Son of Client) published on 30 May 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

The Home Instead team came to our aid when we were looking to get my father out from hospital and back home. With very short notice, they put a package in place which enabled us to get him home the next day with a rota of care which continued for the next 3 months. We all came to rely on the team a

lot and they went above and beyond to cater for his requests and timings, alongside the medical care provided both during the day shifts and particularly the overnight care. They became part of the family, and often I think he looked forward to talking to them as part of the visits more than anything. I would thoroughly recommend the Home Instead team.

Reply from Mark Gettinby, Managing Director at Home Instead (Havant, Waterlooville, Emsworth & Hayling)

Review of
Home Instead (Southampton)
from Angus J (Son of Client) published on 20 May 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

An incredible team help my mother on a daily basis. On set up, they plan how the care will be conducted right through to the fine detail of her likes/dislikes and general wishes. They help manage medication and when they visit they help make her day through social contact, conversation, care and support.

When situations arise that make life difficult for the family (living a long way from my mother) they jump in to support and go the extra mile which gives us even greater confidence in the support she is getting.

An incredible team of caring individuals. Highly recommended! They should all be paid double - please don't tell them I said that!
