Care has been excellent. Carers couldn't have done more - One raised my spirits, another nothing was too much trouble and another carer was a welcome face every visit.

My carer is happy and pleasant first thing in the morning. We have a talk about the state of the world and then discuss what we could do each day. I tell her what food I would like to eat each day. She then decides what would be the best choice of the day.
I have a good wash and try to look my best
and face the world.

Very caring and professional. Mum likes all the Care Pros who visit her (this is something I find amazing as she can be quite difficult to please!) I have had good reports from Mum's doctor and nurse from the Memory Clinic, they have been very impressed with the level of care and compassion.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Since August when I asked Home Instead to help my brother and I support our mum, we have been delighted by the care given. The care pros without exception show a dedication to duty and a level of care that is second to none.
As well as helping mum with her day-to-day personal care, eating and housework,
they spend lots of quality time engaging with her as a person and keeping her mind as active as possible. They also notice little things such as if she is low on provisions or if her medication is not quite right, all of these things give my brother and myself peace of mind knowing that mum is being cared for, valued and stimulated on the occasions when we are at work or can't be there.
I would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Home Instead to anyone who needs help caring for a loved one.

Mum accessed care from Home Instead for several months. We were so impressed by their professionalism and how they wanted to tailor her care to meet her needs at the time. This care had to change over the months as Mum needed more care but I knew I could contact the office to arrange this and they would
do their best to accommodate what our needs were.

Review from Carolyn D (Daughter of Client) published on 28 March 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The company were recommended on the grounds that both of my parents required additional dementia support. The difference once they were involved was amazing. They were able to provide support in areas that had previously been neglected (as a result of my parent's reluctance not the provider). Things
took a turn for the worse, but the whole company stepped up to provide whatever was needed; carers particularly were exceptional, and I wouldn't have gotten through this period without them. Expensive, but peace of mind is priceless. Thank you to all concerned.

Barry Lambert

Job Title: Director

I was born in Huyton and have spent most of my life living and working within Knowsley and Liverpool area.


After graduating from the University of Liverpool with a degree in Political Science, I began a 25 year career with one of the major high street banks. After the banking crisis, I realised I no longer shared the values of the banking sector and decided it was time for a change of direction.


I wanted to use my commercial and managerial experience to make a difference to peoples lives. In particular I was attracted by Home Instead unique focus on companionship, having experienced at first hand the impact of loneliness and isolation amongst elderly people.


My role is to manage and grow the business, by building strong relationships within the local community with groups and individuals who have close links to the elderly. I will personally ensure that my team deliver the highest standards of service, and put our client's interests at the centre of everything we do.
