Most clients are surprised that they have a choice! Their assessed allowance can for example be spent with whoever they choose, it does not have to be any old provider on the Council List. You can choose to have a private care company. We tailor our care to meet our client's needs, for us it's not a one size fits all approach so accurate prices are provided when we have discussed your needs . Gentle companionship/housekeeping for example in a live in care situation may require less complex care training and support than end of life care. Just call us for a chat to help you make a decision. And look at our reviews too. We are v proud of our reputation.

I found all the staff extremely pleasant and reliable, whether office or carer. The carers always arrived on time and stayed the full hour. They were cheerful and efficient and left my husband looking clean and well groomed. They dealt very well with his dementia and knew how to encourage him to perform small tasks to help himself. The office staff were very understanding and flexible when my husband went into a care home temporarily as we thought and were prepared to send carers in as soon as he came home, which unfortunately wasn't possible in the end.
Home Instead looked after me following an operation on my hip. They were always punctual, cheerful and prepared to do anything I asked. I had five different carers and without exception I liked and enjoyed having them around the house. I could not have done without them and am sorry to say goodbye to them all.

Angela, from Market Harborough, has been with Home Instead since its inception. Fully Care qualified & experienced and Home Instead City & Guilds Accredited trainer in Alzheimer's and Dementia, & End of Life, with Level 7 Leadership Health & Social Care, Angela did her Home Instead CAREGiver training with the first group when the company opened and has delivered exemplary care to many Home Instead clients in the area. Her great strength though is in people management and she has a wealth of experience in the service-based industry. This appointment has brought her full circle back into the health and wellbeing sector from when she was practice manager at a Health Centre in Perth Australia.
Angela commented, “I am very excited to be in this role. I have worked with Gail for many years and I admire her hard work and dedication to the vision of changing the face of ageing by providing top-quality care to the elderly. We only provide a minimum of one-hour visits and each caregiver is matched to their client, this ensures that we always maintain continuity of caregiver which helps to develop a trusting relationship.”
The only East Midlands home care provider for the elderly rated Outstanding in all areas by CQC makes me very proud. With local staff, we support clients in Leicester, Market Harborough, Oadby, Corby and Rutland areas with the highest quality companionship, care and personalised attention.
Caring for family members I realised that there was a real gap in provision for those who were "nervous of letting just anyone into their home" and seeing how a carefully matched and trained caregiver could make a difference to an individual's life, inspired me to open the local office.
Lucy joined Home Instead as a part-time caregiver, then developed progressed through scheduling to attain her Level 3 professional qualifications and join our team as our Care Manager. With a lifelong passion for caring for others, her early-bird hobbies (as well as a busy family life) are her two dogs and horses.
