All the staff at Home Instead were caring and considerate and treated my mother with care, dignity and respect. Many of the carers went above and beyond to ensure that my mother was happy and all her needs were met. She looked forward to the visits, and I could not fault the care she received.

Carers are not always very good at cleaning, for example, removing bin bag but never washing the bin out and even when asked, somehow manage to avoid ironing.
Reply from Christine Blain Hall, Care Manager at Home Instead (High Peak)

Thank you for your comments. We will certainly investigate these concerns and review all support moving forward.

We have been really grateful for and impressed with the care provided to our 95-year-old dad at home. The whole process of assessment all the way through to an agreed care plan and service agreement was smooth and uncomplicated. The daily care received was all that we hoped for, the carers who treated
him with kindness, dignity and concern. Always punctual and extremely hard working, the management team have also been very understanding with his extended stay in hospital and flexible and accommodating of arrangments at short notice. Many thanks.

Home Instead cared for my mum for almost 3 years, the carers were always reliable with their timings. Having the rota meant we knew when and who would be visiting. The carers were always thoughtful and sensitive. Communication was always excellent. I would recommend their services to family and friends.

Thank you for your kind comments and recommendation. We will pass on your feedback to Mum's care professionals who support her.

We needed some extra help for our father whilst he stayed with us for a few months and a member of staff from the High Peak branch arranged it quickly and at short notice.
We couldn’t have been more pleased, both with the service we received when making the arrangements and with the care and attention
given during the actual visits. He was seen by a few different carers, all of whom were lovely.

All the carers were kind, considerate and helpful. Some needed more guidance than others and some were better at doing my hair than others! The ones who come regularly were the easiest to cope with.

I can't recommend the team at Home Instead more highly enough. Everyone we met was brilliant. The care for my dad was perfect, thoughtful, considerate and they supported his needs brilliantly with respect. Everyone was also so kind to us, the family, as we approached end-of-life. I can't thank you enough
for everything.

Thank you for your kind words which I will pass onto the Care Professionals and office team, who supported your dad.

My parents used Home Instead (High Peak) branch from 2020-2023. From start to finish they were extremely good on all fronts - the management and office were approachable, flexible, available and professional. The caregivers were all very caring, gentle, considerate, respectful, resourceful and companionable.
They stayed the full amount of time they were scheduled for. I trusted Home Instead with the care of my parents and I am in no doubt that they enriched and prolonged my parents’ lives. They may perhaps be more expensive than other companies but the level of care received was excellent.

I look forward to seeing my carer, every time she comes to me is a real tonic.
We always end up as happy duo's.
I can't thank her enough for what she does for me.
She's kind, caring, honest and considerate also a good companion.
She always complies with the rules of the staff and management.

During my husband's short, end-of-life care Home Instead were our saviours. They allowed us to be able to spend quality time with him instead of having to be his carers. Nothing was too much trouble and the care and dignity my husband received were outstanding. They supported the whole family and were
always available to offer support and advice. I really don't think I could have coped without them. I cannot recommend this company enough.
Reply from Christine Blain Hall, Care Manager at Home Instead (High Peak)

It was our privilege to support your husband, the whole team of Care Professionals admired both his and your dignity in dealing with such tragedy.

The work that Home Instead do is phenomenal. My grandma loves their visits.
My gran has a regular carer, who she and my family can't praise enough; she goes above and beyond and does all she can to make my gran's life as comfortable as possible. She treats her with the utmost respect. I just want to
praise her for her exceptional work and the support from the rest of the team.
With special thanks to her regular carer.
Keep up the good work!

It's great to hear that Grandma is receiving the best support possible from our team and that she has built such a good relationship with her regular Care Professional.

The carers from Home Instead (High Peak) were brilliant. My husband was dying from Prostate Cancer; they cheered us up and provided professional support and kindness. We couldn't have coped without them. I want to thank them from the bottom of my heart. It's just a pity I didn't see them after he died.

The care provided by Home Instead High Peak to my Mum during the last seven months of her life when she moved in with me, was first class. Physically, the standard of her care was provided to a very professional level. On a personal level she was always treated with compassion, dignity and respect but
she also enjoyed her chats and a laugh with too. Mum often accompanied her goodbyes with the phrase, You do me good! Her mood was visibly lifted by her visits from carers. It helped Mum enormously but it also helped me so much too. I could not have managed to look after her at home alone without the support of her carers.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Home Care Provider is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.681 for Home Instead (High Peak) is calculated as follows: ( (33 Excellents x 5) + (13 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 47 Ratings = 4.681

  4. If a Home Care Provider does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.

Job Title: Care Manager Joined: 2009

Often, when I visit someone or their family to perform a Care Assessment, I am told that they have found themselves “…lying awake at night worrying about who will care for them or their loved one.” At Home Instead High Peak we want to eliminate those niggling late night worries. When I meet you to structure your Care Plan, I listen carefully to what you need, what you want, what you worry about, and how you identify your desire to remain in your own home. My job, my goal, and my challenge, is to make certain that all the uncertainties are cleared up so you can make the right informed choices. It’s important that you never lose sleep over worries about how you are going to live and enjoy day to day routines and pleasures.
