Home Instead have truly been a godsend. My dad was struggling to manage on his own, and although I called on him every day, working full-time was beginning to take a toll on my mental health.
My dad is a naturally funny man, and the carers absolutely love spending time with him. They meet all his personal
care needs-and so much more. Bringing this lovely team of carers into his life was the best decision I've made.
His sense of humor has returned, and he genuinely looks forward to his twice-daily visits.
Reply from Beth Shakleton, Operation Manager at Home Instead (Rochdale)Thank you for your wonderful review about Home Instead. We're so pleased to hear that our carers have made such a positive difference for both you and your dad.

It's lovely to know he enjoys the visits and that his sense of humour has returned. Providing not only care but also companionship is very important to us, and your kind words will mean a lot to the team.

Thank you again for trusting us to support your dad.

My uncle has dementia and needed extra care to allow him to continue to living at home. We used Home Instead from Aug 25 until Jan 26, when he moved to a care home. I was impressed with the carers, who not only carried out their duties, but showed care and understanding. My uncle couldn't have been
in better hands, and we were kept updated via the app, and, when appropriate or necessary, direct phone calls. I would thoroughly recommend Home Instead.

My brother has been struggling with Dementia and Home Instead provided care/support to him up until recently when his condition worsened and as he lives alone we moved him into full time care. However, Homeinstead have been supporting us for the last 12 months. The carers were particularly good and
as well as supporting him with light household tasks they also provided social support by taking him out once per week which he really enjoyed. I would highly recommend Home Instead as it gives you a certain amount of piece of mind. I lived 200 miles away so it was very helpful that they could take him to appointments if I couldn't get there. They would also contact me if they had any concerns or questions they needed me to answer.
Reply from Beth Shakleton, Operations Manager at Home Instead (Rochdale)Thank you for writing such a positive review. The Care Professionals that visited your Brother had nothing but lovely things to say about him and he will be missed. We are happy that we were able to provide you some peace of mind. I will share this lovely review review with the team, thank you again.

The girls took on caring for mum a few months back.The service from the start has been excellent.Carers met mum before they started which helped settle mum.
All forms of communication are excellent from text email phone calls and personnel visits.
Mum has received a high standard of care from the
start.We are informed through the app about how visit has gone.
The girls are very patient as mum isn't easy but they treat her with respect and dignity.
We are extremely happy with all services provided from home instead.
They have put us at ease whilst we are at work.No ask is to big and work very closely with family to keep continuity of care first rate.
A massive thankyou to all those involved you truly are amazing.

The ladies who are caring for mum are fantastic. Patient, supportive and respectful.
They are helping mum to maintain her independence as much as possible whilst giving some peace of mind to my sister and myself.
It's not an easy task dealing with mum, who can be quite stubborn and bolshy, and the
care and compassion they show to her is fantastic. The plus side is that mum seems to respond well to them and accepts their help.
One carer is particular has been a godsend.
They also listen to requests from us and are quick to identify if mum needs anything additional.
With both myself and sister working full time it eases the workload, if not the guilt of not being able to do more.
Thank you so much, we appreciate all the help and support you have given mum and us.
Reply from Beth Shakleton, Operations Manager at Home Instead (Rochdale)Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this lovely review.

Thanks to all at Home Instead who have helped care for our mum. From the moment a particular member of staff came to assess her at her home we knew mum was going to be looked after well. The detailed care plan showed she understood all of mums needs.
All the care staff and office staff have been brilliant,
mum and dad have been so happy, mum always looked lovely and clean. I know it wasn't always easy to get her out of bed and into the shower especially on a cold morning. I would love to name you all but would hate to miss someone out.
The reports have been detailed and it's been nice to read how mum is each day Mum and Dad thought the world of you all. It's the reason why mum stayed at home so long.
If mum returns home or dad needs care we will be getting in touch again. A massive big thank you from all the family.

It's hard to put into words how amazing Home Instead Rochdale were when we needed care provision for Dad at short notice.
The consultation process gathered information on Dad's personal care requirements and background information on Dad and his interests. We were nervous before the first visit
but the carer was a delight and put everyone at ease and treated Dad in such a caring manner.
The personal care is provided in such a way as to maintain Dad's privacy and independence as much as possible and is never hurried. All of the carers have been well trained and if something needs doing get on with it e.g. if the sheets or clothes need changing. When I had dropped Dad's razor, it was the carer who pointed out that the foil was damaged. The team have all been lovely people and provided companionship to both Dad and my stepmum.
We now see the positives of care: support with Dad's needs, reducing the burden on my stepmum and the companionship. I have recommended the team to friends.
Reply from Beth Shakleton, Operations Manager at Home Instead (Rochdale)Thank you for your kind words and taking the time to leave this review.

My sister, who has been diagnosed with Alzheimer's, has 2 carer/companions from Home Instead. They come for 3 hours on 2 days of the week. They have made such a difference to her life and she really looks forward to them coming.
They are more than companion/carers and have become real friends. They
are very willing and will do anything she asks them to do from cleaning to changing bed linen to taking her out for walks and visiting interesting places. They usually have a coffee on the way too!
We are very grateful to Home Instead for providing such a splendid service. Thank you.

We have been so happy with the care our mum has received from the consistent three carers she has had over the last 6 months. The carers are kind, patient extremely hard working and always go above and beyond what has been asked of them. My mum feels safe and looked after and above all listened to.
They have also allowed me to have more freedom because I know she is being so well cared for on the days I don't see her.
Thank you.

My mum is 78 years young. She has a few illnesses and is getting very forgetful and confused. She is prescribed a lot of different medications throughout the day which can be stressful and time consuming for me to administer. Home instead come in 3 times a day and make sure she takes the correct meds
at the appropriate times. I have found them to be very trustworthy and informative to my mums needs in the moment. They are also very flexible when my mum needs to go to hospital appointments and will work around her schedule if required. All in all very well organised, and meticulous care providers. Thank you.

My mum looks forward to going shopping and going for lunch with her carer. She takes her out a couple of times a week, it gives her something to look forward to. She also has her nails done and loves showing them off. There's nothing that is too much trouble for them, you only have to ask or leave a
note and it's done. My mum has a couple of carers and they are so good with her. On the days she's not going out they make sure mum has lunch and check her medication.
I highly recommend this company to anyone who has doubts about letting strangers into your loved one's home, they become friends and a lifeline to them.
Them going into Mum during the week gives me peace of mind whilst I am at work, they ring me or leave a note if anything needs doing or mum isn't 100%.

My wonderful parents have sadly both been diagnosed with Dementia on top of other health needs. It has been a painful few months watching them decline as they have tried desperately to cling on to their independence and continue to live together in their beautiful home. As a family, we have been incredibly
stretched taking on the running of their financial affairs, house upkeep and management of their day-to-day needs.
We recently hit a crisis point and placed Mum and Dad in a care facility for a respite period. They were both incredibly unhappy and wanted to return home but we knew we needed care in place for this to be a safe option.
Luckily we were recommended Home Instead. Every aspect of the process has been exceptional and a staff member has matched my parents with a wonderful team of care professionals. We are only a week in but it has already made a huge difference to all concerned and we are so grateful we found your company.
Reply from Beth Shakleton, Operations Manager at Home Instead (Rochdale)Thank you for taking the time to complete this lovely review.

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 4.848 for Home Instead (Rochdale) is calculated as follows: ( (129 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 145 Ratings = 4.848
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Home Instead (Rochdale) is based on 25 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 5
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Home Care Provider does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.

When I am not dedicating my time to Home Instead, I enjoy hill walking- especially in the Lake District, spending time in my vegetable garden and looking after my chickens. I also love cooking, but it is really just an excuse to listen to football on the radio and to drink red wine!
