Funding & Fees
Prices
At Home Instead, we like to keep things simple and reassuring. We work on a fixed monthly package rather than charging by the hour. Your monthly fee is based on the number of care hours you need each week, which means the cost stays the same each month and is easy to plan for.
There are no extra charges for visits at different times of the day, weekends, or even Bank Holidays—so you can feel confident knowing there won’t be any unexpected costs. Every visit is a full hour of dedicated care, and we never include travel time as part of your visit.
Our Care Solutions approach is designed to give you peace of mind and help you budget comfortably, without any surprises along the way.
We also believe that familiar faces make all the difference. You will have a consistent team of Care Professionals visiting you at agreed times, and each one will be introduced to you beforehand—so no one ever arrives at your door as a stranger.
Before care begins, we’ll work with you to create a personalised care plan tailored to your needs. Families can stay connected too, with access to care notes through an easy-to-use app, wherever they are in the world.
With Home Instead Care Solutions, you can relax knowing everything is taken care of with professionalism, consistency, and a friendly touch.

My Dad had been receiving care from Home Instead for a while now (since 2025). We are very happy with the service. Being housebound, and knowing he will see a trusted carer twice a week as I live in another county is such a relief. Cynthia is really good and the fact the Home Instead worry about assigning carers based upon interests and personality types speaks wonders as getting on well with the person caring for you is such an important part of the care service. He likes Rebecca also, who he has when Cynthia is on holiday. Top notch service from a company that cares.
We are delighted to hear that the support your dad has received has provided both him and your family with such reassurance and peace of mind. We understand how important it is to know that a loved one is being...
They have taken the pressure off allowing me to go away when necessary confident that dad will be ok.
The team are now supporting him with the next chapter - a move to a residential home.
I cannot thank the Home Instead Team enough for their professionalism and care.
Having access to the visit notes via the app has been brilliant, I can always be up to date with what has been happening.
It has been a privilege to support your dad over the past two years and to help him remain comfortable and independent in his own home. We are delighted to hear that our care has given you...
The carers update their visit on an App, which I can read at work. The manager is very flexible and available via phone or email. My only criticism is, I have no way of replying to the staff on the app if they've mentioned something. Apparently, this is being looked into.
There will come a time soon that I will possibly need to change dad's visit times, and this will be accommodated by the company.
Am I happy with the level of service? Yes, definitely. Would I recommend Home Instead to friends? Absolutely, no hesitation.
Thank you for your kind review. We're delighted to hear that your dad has found the support and companionship he needs, and that our care professionals and management team have provided you with peace of mind. We appreciate your feedback about the app and are always looking for ways to improve...
Mum is very happy with the service they provide and it has taken a weight off my shoulders knowing their care is very friendly , consistent and professional at all times and nothing is too much trouble
Thank you so much Liz for your lovely review. We're delighted to hear that your mum has been happy with our care and support over the past 12 months. Knowing that our friendly, consistent and professional team has helped give you peace of mind means so much to us. Thank you for trusting Home...
Our experience with Richard and his team has been exceptional. All staff were professional and caring at all times . Although our time with the company was short. Nothing was too much trouble for Richard to accomodate the needs of my mother which reflected through the care of his team. I cannot thank everyone enough for there kindness and care shown to my Mother . I would deffinatly reccomend the company anyone in the future
All the Team at Home Instead really appreciate you taking the time to provide such a lovely review. Thank you.
This is first class quality care. I am so pleased we have found these lovely carers to look after my dad, at 86 years old, in his home. He now looks forward to them arriving and they have formed their own relationships with my dad as they see him on a regular basis. The daily communication is invaluable as dad, since his stroke, isn't able to tell us who he's seen as his short term memory is not good now. I can check in on my phone to see how his day is going. It is easy to ask for weekend cover and assistance to medical appts and trips to the shops. His needs are changing and that is also something that is easy to communicate and acted upon quickly by the team. I cannot recommend enough.
Thank you very much for your lovely review, it is very much appreciated by all of us at Home Instead.
The care and attention given to my parents is very good. The care team engage fully with both mum and dad. They cope with my dad's occasional odd sense of humour and both parents are very pleased with the care given. My sisters and I live over 300 miles away and have come to rely on the daily reports we receive. Any issues we have are dealt with quickly and professionally by the manager and the team. We could not ask for more.
The whole team works very hard to provide the highest quality of service, so your review is very much appreciated by us all. Thank you.
Would highly recommend this service and long may they continue.
We really appreciate you taking the time to provide us with such a lovely review and are delighted that you are happy with our service. Thank you.
I remember being daunted and nervous about arranging care for my mum after a fall and a spell in hospital. When I contacted Home Instead I knew I had found the right provider. They understood my mother's needs, were professional and made sure my parents were comfortable with the care that was being provided. All the carers were excellent, and a delight to get to know. They focused on mum's needs and the daily communication provided me with a full understanding on how she was progressing. After awhile my dad also needed some care which Home Instead provided, at times this was challenging care but all the carers supported mum and dad wonderfully until eventually my parents needs required 24 hour care in a care home. If you are hesitating to contact Home Instead, don't hesitate anymore, you will be pleased and relieved that you made the call.
Thank you for your lovely review. We really appreciate you taking the time. All the very best to you and your family from all of us at Home Instead.
From our father's point of view he has a consistent team who have really got to know him and who care for his needs in a dignified and professional manner enabling him to remain at home for as long as possible and most importantly they make him laugh.
We very much appreciate you taking the time to provide a review. Thank you.
My mother and father truly benefitted from the care they received from Home Instead. The carers were punctual, caring and hard working. My mother has dementia and the carers experience came to the fore as they were able to manage her daily needs and care with just the right touch. I would definitely recommend Home Instead.
Thank you very much for taking the time to review us, it is very much appreciated. We are delighted that you were happy with our service.
Mum came out of a care home to be cared for in her own home after hip surgery four years ago. Mum is now 99 years old, has carers twice a day and has a lot of help from myself.
The carers have been punctual, genuinely caring, efficient, adaptable and hard working. They have become friends to Mum and myself. The team remains generally stable and any new carers are carefully supervised in their new role.
Management are helpful and sympathetic, any problems are quickly rectified and we have a regular thorough review.
All care is expensive but this care provider represents good value for money in this market.
This care gives Mum the best quality of life available, maintains her independence in her own home and enables me to spend quality time with Mum.
I thoroughly recommend this company.
Thank you for your feedback on our services, it is extremely valuable to us. We are delighted that your mum and you are happy with our service and we look forward to continuing to support you both.
My experience with the manager and his professional, kind team has been exemplary.
They have and continue to look after my husband since May 2021. They are totally reliable and helpful when I need to change dates.
A superb company I would highly recommend.
Thank you very much for taking the time to review us, it is very much appreciated. We are delighted that you are happy with our service.
Right from the first meeting with the care manager we were impressed and reassured. He took time to get to know my family; what we needed, my father's interests as well as full health details. At no point were we rushed to sign a contract (unlike other companies we met with!), however once we were ready the carers were rapidly in place.
The company believes in and delivers, a small team approach to care with wonderful, reassuring and knowledgeable carers. They really engage with Dad throughout the sessions, but also keep an eye on Mum. The carers were introduced by the manager in person and we always know who is coming in.
The care package has already been tweaked as needs have changed, but the ease of contact with the manager has meant that changes to the level of care are seamless.
A massive thank you from all the family.
Thank you for taking the time to provide such a lovely review. It is very much appreciated by all of the team.
Human beings treating human beings as they would like to be treated themselves is all that needs to be said about this excellent provider. From the start of a difficult journey, and during, we have been overwhelmed by the kindness and support we have received. Special mention must go to the care manager and another member of staff in particular to whom we will always be very grateful. On behalf of our entire family, thank you.
Thank you for your very kind words - we very much appreciate you taking the time to provide us with such a lovely review. You are very welcome.
I cannot speak highly enough of this super company and it starts at the top for sure. The manager is very approachable, helpful and intuitive and he really listens carefully and works out what the family as a whole needs. The carers that visit Mum are lovely, and Mum feels she has made new friends. The level of support offered to the family as a whole is superb.
Thank you very much for taking the time to review Home Instead. It is always lovely to hear feedback from our client's families and we are delighted to hear that you and your mum are happy with the support that we provide.
We regularly recommend Home Instead to our friends.
Thank you very much for your review. We are delighted that you are happy with the service that we provide to your parents.
I would thoroughly recommend Home Instead as a care provider. Their staff are well trained, friendly and efficient; they support without patronising, and nothing is too much trouble. The company communicates any changes of staff visits very well and makes sure that all contacts are introduced to the client before they visit so there are no concerns of an unfamiliar face.
Your feedback is very much appreciated, thank you.
Home Instead is providing a wonderful service for my elderly mother. The carers are amazing, staying cheerful at all times, whatever the circumstances. Their professionalism and empathy command my utmost respect. So too does the experience I have had of the two managers at head office who have accommodated our needs brilliantly, even through the pandemic. Well done, Home Instead, and thank you all enormously.
It is a pleasure to look after your mother - thank you very much for your review; it is greatly appreciated.
The team look after Mum very well. Happy to recommend service to others.
Thnak you for your positive feedback, it is appreciated.
