I am very impressed with the service. Communication is very good. The service provided is excellent. Introductions of new people joining our team has made a difference to us and helped my husband accept the help easier. My husband goes to the cafe every week with his care professional and really enjoys these outings.
Thank you so much for leaving such a lovely review! It is our pleasure and privilege to be able to support you and your husband.
Excellent service in all aspects. Office staff were always friendly and efficient when dealing with any issues I had. All carers were amazing. They treated mum with respect and dignity and ensured she was happy and comfortable. They cared for her personally as well as cooking, cleaning, and generally looking after the house. Their care enabled mum to stay in her own home until the last few weeks of her life. They became friends to both mum and myself. Forever in their debt.
What a wonderful review! Thank you so much! It has been our pleasure and privilege to support both you and your mum over the last few years. Wishing you much happiness for your future.
I would like to thank all the staff for the help that they gave Cath and myself during Cath's traumatic time. They were most professional both in their timekeeping and care. Cath had to go into a nursing home as the medical staff told me she probably would not walk again after falling and breaking her hip. Once again, many thanks.
THank you for taking the time to leave us a lovely review. It was our pleasure and privilege to support you both.
I found the staff to be caring and efficient in their care ot my wife. They made her feel comfortable in their company, and they became friends. Thank you.
Thank you so much for taking the time to write this review - it really is much appreciated. It was our pleasure and privilege to be part of your lives.
Thanks to Home Instead my wife and I got to have our weekend's off to recharge our batteries ,so that we could care for dad the rest of the week, we knew we were leaving dad in very capable hands, any problems were dealt with promptly and professionally,
I would highly recommend Home Instead to look after your loved ones
Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a lovely review. It genuinely was our pleasure and privilege to support your family.
Experience and trained staff cared for my mom and dad. Mom looked forward to seeing the staff who supported mom with personal care. Mom maintained her independence. Staff encouraged mom to eat her breakfast and encouraged fluids. Staff supported the family during my mom's illness. Much appreciated, lovely, caring staff team. Thank you.
Thank you so much for taking the time to write your review. It was our pleasure and privilege to support your parents.
Nothing was/is too much trouble for any of the team and we are so grateful for the time they continue to spend with Mum not only when caring for her personal needs, but also for making time to sit down and chat through each day's events with her. She always looks forward to their calls and has never complained about anything.
Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a heart warming review. It was and continues to be a privilege to support your family.
Outstanding service from this company. Carers are always punctual and go out of their way with the excellent care they give. My care team are all outstanding carers. Not only are they carers, I consider them my friends.
Thank you for taking the time to write a lovely review. Your words mean a lot. It continues to be our privilege to support you.
Home Instead care professionals looked after my mother as if she was their family each day for over 3 years. They took her shopping, on outings and to medical appointments, cooked her meals and even accompanied her when she had to go to hospital. This enabled her to live in her own home relatively independently. Her dementia sometimes caused frustration, anger and sadness, but her team were there to offer a listening ear, support or a hug and then feed back the situation to me, which I found invaluable. I'm so glad we used Home Instead and I can't thank them enough for their excellent service and care.
Thank you for taking the time for writing this review. It was our pleasure to support your mother.
Professional, helpful, and thoughtful.
All of the care professionals are so nice, this service has changed my Dad's life.
Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays are the days for visits, my Dad looks forward to those visits so much.
A couple of the care professionals take my Dad out for breakfast, that's just great because I work full-time and do not have the time in the week.
His house is kept clean now too, he is unable to clean for himself.
It's important to me that I have someone else on board to help and assist with my Dad's care.
Thank you so much for your heartwarming review. It is our pleasure and privilege to support your dad - he's lovely!
Home Instead's care and support were key to mum being able to remain safe in her own home. Home was her favourite place, her sanctuary and together with Home Indstead her family were able to ensure she could stay there until her quite sudden passing.
Thank you so much for taking the time to write a kind review. It is much appreciated and we loved supporting your mum.
Having the same carers helped more build a wealth of confidence in knowing who was looking after her on a regular basis and a level of trust with knowing whom was coming into her home.
Mom was very pleased with the care given and that her needs were met. Unfortunately due to her needs plan changing, we could no longer continue the service, however it was sad this had to come to an end.
Thank you so much for taking the time to write this lovely review. It was our pleasure and privilege to support your lovely Mom.
From start to finish, the care received was spot on! The care professionals and office staff always went above and beyond to provide exceptional care and support.
Thank you for taking the time to write this lovely review! It was a joy and our privilege to be part of your lives.
My parents received excellent care from their kind and caring team. Each carer treated them with dignity and cheerfulness. The care package allowed my parents to remain in their own home for much longer than they had thought possible. Our wider family has also felt well supported by the office and out-of-hours team. We are deeply grateful to you all.
Thank you so much for taking the time to write this lovely review. It was our pleasure and privilege to support your parents and be part of your lives.
The care provided by Home Instead was way beyond the job described, the care they gave to both of our parents and the support they gave to us was second to none. We can never praise the girls and boys enough.
Thank you so much for taking the time to write a review. It was our pleasure and privilege to support your lovely family.
Thank you for your help and encouragement over the last 6 weeks whilst recovering from my hip surgery. The team have been efficient, helpful and very caring.
Thank you for your kind review. It was our pleasure to support you during your recovery.
I appreciate the level of care my dad was given but also equally appreciate the support I was given as well.
Thank you for taking the time to write your kind review. It was our pleasure and privilege to support your lovely dad.
My father started using your service after suffering a stroke in the summer of 2022, after losing his wife later on that year and with his mobility decreasing he and we as a family looked upon the extra care and support you gave us as a godsend. Dad formed quite a strong bond with his regular carers, for which I have the utmost gratitude and they made the remaining time he had before he passed more easier for him and us. Thank you Home Instead and all the team.
Thank you for taking the time to write a review, it means a lot to us. It was our privilege to support your father.
Mum was always a very independent lady, who was very proud of being able to look after herself. However, as her ability started to decline, she realised she was struggling to cope alone. Home Instead provided the perfect solution not just for Mum but also for us. The staff who assessed Mum initially were marvellous. The carers who looked after Mum on a daily basis soon became good friends and she enjoyed having someone she could talk to and share a joke with. It was reassuring for us to know she had someone she liked and could rely on. Thank you everyone at Home Instead.
Thank you so very much for taking the time to write a review. It really is appreciated. It was our pleasure and privilege to be part of your mum's life and we remember her with great affection.
Our experience with Home Instead has been very positive indeed. The carers have gone above and beyond their roles and we have nothing but praise for them. Given the extremely challenging times of Covid, they were exemplary. The care and attention provided were first class and it enabled Mom to stay at home as long as it was feasible to do so, which was her wish. Thank you all.
Thank you so much for your review. It was our pleasure and privilege to support your lovely mom.

Hello, I'm Marie
I'm the Care Manager here at Home Instead, but like everyone else, I began my career here as a CAREGiver. I knew very little about the care sector when I came to work here, but I knew it was an area I wanted to learn more about as I intended to go back to University to become a Social Worker. However, like almost everyone who works here, I found that I loved this type of work, what Home Instead stands for, it's ethos and quality of care delivered, so I stayed. My previous job was as Customer Services Manager at Dudley Zoo, so I know what it takes to deliver a great customer experience and have brought these skills to my current position.
I'm very proud of Home Instead and the work we do and, as Care Manager, I am responsible for all of the day to day activities and to make sure the office runs smoothly. The quality of the care delivered by our CAREGivers is extremely important to me and I refuse to let anyone 'rest on their laurels' as I am always looking for ways to continually improve our service.
In my spare time, I spend time with my husband, family and friends. I also enjoy reading, craft activities and learning how to better use technology. I am also known for my unhealthy obsession with stationery!
Hello, I'm Julie
I am one of the owners of Home Instead Dudley & Sandwell South. In the beginning, I did whatever needed doing - and to some extent, still do - however, my main responsibilities these days are compliance, planning and overall business development.
I am so proud of everything we have achieved so far at Home Instead and I am looking forward to continuing to grow without compromising the quailty of care we deliver. Our strap line on the company logo is 'To us, it's personal' this embodies how I feel about the company; looking after someone else's family member is incredibly personal, and we instil this in our staff from the very beginning.
When I trained and qualified as a nurse, care of the patient was very much our focus; over the years, this changed and it became more about targets and paperwork, so I left. I re-trained as a teacher and taught Health & Social Care in a local secondary school. When the focus of this job became about the results the children achieved, rather than the children themselves, I left there too. Now I am working in a environment where we get to make the decisions of how we operate as a company, I can promise you that our clients and our staff will always be the main focus of Home Instead.
In my spare time I enjoy anything craft-related, reading, jigsaws, recording our family memories for our grandson, and spending time with him and the rest of my family and friends. Like Marie, I, too have an unhealthy obsession with stationery and a bit of a Netflix dependency!
I love that this is a family-run business, and I love the family-feel we have created. Why not give us a call and let my family help you support yours?
Hello, I'm Ian.
I'm one of the owners here at Home Instead Dudley and my main responsibilities are all things financial and I also am actively involved in the initial training and education of our CAREGivers. I feel that it's very important that I am involved at this early stage of our CAREGiver's journey, as I want to make sure that the people we employ have the same values as we do. We can teach them to do the job, but we can't teach them to be kind and caring - that's who they are. I have to be happy that I would send them to look after members of my own family before they look after you or your family. Julie and I take the responsibility of owning a Home Instead Franchise very seriously and the quality of the service we provide is hugely personal to us both. We understand how difficult it can be letting someone else care for yourself or your loved ones, and through our relationship-led care, we hope to earn your trust and become part of your life.
I am a family man first and foremost and spend huge amounts of any free time with our daughters, son-in-law and grandson. However, I am also a lifelong Wolves supporter, avid horse racing (non-betting) fan and resident dad-joke teller. I am told that I have modelled my 'act' on Eric Morecambe's piano playing! All the right jokes, not necessarily in the right order - there's a reference for people over a certain age!
