The people at Home Instead South Manchester and North Trafford offer a flexible, personalised service with one simple aim – to provide the kind of care they’d want for their own families. To make this possible they do things differently.

They only recruit CareGivers with a genuine affinity for older people, then train them in the skills and ethos needed to deliver to it. Each client is matched with their own regular CareGiver so they can build the personal relationship vital to effective, dignified care.

Every client, or their family, agrees their own tailored package, providing the service they want, when they want it, and their own schedule so they always know who they’ll be seeing and when, and when needs change the service changes too. To some this might seem like the gold standard, but at Home Instead South Manchester and North Trafford, it’s just what every older person deserves.

Review from Christine W (Daughter of Client) published on 28 September 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The care my mother has received has been of the highest order. The carers have always been punctual, caring, professional and reliable. Nothing has been too much trouble and they have all contacted me on a regular basis with any concerns they may have about my mother. I cannot recommend the organisation
highly enough. Nothing has been too much trouble and they have been the next best thing to a family member.
Reply from Alison Broadhurst, Director at Home Instead (South Manchester/North Trafford)

My carers are the best I have ever had. They are all friendly, caring, so happy to do any little extra things which I require.
I am also treated with respect, kindness, and dignity.

Review from Barbara M (Daughter of Client) published on 29 August 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Earlier this year my family decided that we needed help to care for my 90-year-old mum who suffers from vascular dementia and was becoming confused. She was living by herself but she stopped cooking for herself, and also had trouble remembering how to use domestic appliances. I saw an article about
Home Instead in the evening news and had also spoken to a carer who I happened to be sitting next to at a Christmas dinner. We arranged for carers and were more than pleased with the service provided. Very helpful and accommodating.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Home Instead provides an excellent professional service at a very personal level. I have recommended Home Instead whole heatedly to other friends who have elderly parents to care for and they in turn have been very pleased with the service. To me Home Instead operates on the principles of fairness and
common sense.

Review from Andrea S (Daughter of Client) published on 19 April 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our frail, elderly father could not remain in his own flat if it weren't for the services provided by Home Instead. Carers are reliable, punctual, caring and responsive. Not only do they take care of dad's meals and medications but they also keep his mind active and report back on his state of health
(or otherwise) and allow us to keep our eye on him even though we are not close by.

The provision of care has been excellent, and prompt, as it was very short notice and it was what I needed. Trouble was taken to provide the right carers and to make sure I was satisfied.

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 4.962 for Home Instead (South Manchester/North Trafford) is calculated as follows: ( (76 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 78 Ratings = 4.962

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Home Instead (South Manchester/North Trafford) is based on 13 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 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.
