Overall Experience
Home Instead did a very good job and all carers were very helpful and friendly and they made mum happy every time they came.

There were a couple of issues what I brought to the notice of the senior manager and I was impressed by the way they were managed and delighted that problems were sold speedily and with care so that there was no reoccurrence.

Review from B B (Daughter of Client) published on 26 January 2017 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Home Instead Senior Care were a lifesaver, my parents had refused all offers of help and care although they desperately needed it. They finally agreed to help for a couple of hours a week and the Home Instead Senior Care caregiver was an absolute lifesaver. He was friendly, caring and genuinely interested in them and their lives. It made a big difference to their quality of life and Home Instead Senior Care were brilliant when there was a crisis. I would thoroughly recommend them to anyone with elderly relatives.

Overall Experience

Very dependable. Good company and helpful. They adapt very well to the situation and are professional. Give my family peace of mind as they all live away- e.g. London and Kings Lynn. The staff and visitors are very well trained and the family training on issues of Dementia is very good.

Review from T R (Daughter of Client) published on 15 August 2016 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
I chose home Instead Senior Care in March 2014. Their representative came to my elderly mother's house to assess her needs and to highlight any safety issues. As my mother's health deteriorated there were other visits to re-assess the situation, the office kept both my mother and myself informed of the rotas, they were very flexible when we had to change the rota at short notice.

All the carers were honest, reliable, efficient and genuinely caring people. I found it particularly helpful that every carer wrote a short paragraph about their visit in a file kept in my mother's house.Tthat way I knew about niggles before they became issues. Also the carers work part-time so they are not rushed off their feet and deadbeat. I can unequivocally highly recommend this provider of carers.

Overall Experience

We have had carers form Home Instead for four years. We like the way they listen to our needs and try to match us with the right carers. Having named carers gives security and builds confidence (when illness and frailty leaves you feeling dis-empowered) that confidence in your carers is really important.

Overall Experience

I am very happy with Home Instead. The carers are very well matched for my Mother and the office staff are all superb. Care and communication levels are very high and I feel reassured and confident that my Mother is getting the best support enabling her to continue to live independently at home. I have actively recommended Home Instead to several friends already.

Review from Amanda R (Daughter of Client) published on 18 February 2016 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My mother continues to receive care from Home Instead caregivers three times a day. The caregivers are patient, attentive and professional. They respect her opinions and preferences while helping her to complete daily tasks such as dressing and eating. The team of carers are now all familiar faces to mum and she enjoys their company. One caregiver has just initiated a new idea at bedtime, where mum and the caregiver take it in turns to read aloud from their shared book. I can't praise them highly enough. They are lifesavers!
