Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback, we really do appreciate it. I am pleased that the service met the changing needs which, we know, is important to a lot of families.

We first used Home Instead for a short period last year to cover a holiday, and didn't hesitate to return when we needed a longer-term care package. Every carer has been consistently friendly, kind, and compassionate, which gives us huge peace of mind knowing our mum is being so well looked after. Any queries have been handled promptly and any issues resolved quickly and satisfactorily. The level of detail in the app is incredibly helpful - right down to knowing exactly what she has eaten and drunk each day. Securing care for a loved one can feel daunting, but our experience has been overwhelmingly positive. I would have no hesitation in recommending Home Instead.
Thank you so much, Hazel, for taking the time to leave such a lovely review. It means a great deal to our whole team to know that you have such peace of mind knowing your mum is well cared for and supported. Were also delighted to hear that you find the updates in the app helpful and reassuring....

I now have the ladies from Home Instead coming in once a week to help with showering and some light housework. This gives my daughter a break but she knows I'm in safe, friendly hands. The ladies are all helpful and thoughtful, willing to help and good fun. Best idea I have had to ask them to return on a regular basis.
We're delighted to hear that our Care Professionals are providing support that gives both you and your daughter peace of mind. It's wonderful to know that the team is not only helpful and thoughtful, but also good company.
Thank you for choosing Home Instead and for trusting us with your care.
It was lovely to see how much care and attention was given to my friend, it was like they really understood her individual and personal needs. I know this made a huge difference to how settled and well she was able to feel. Thank you.

We had Otega as a live in carer for my Mum who has dementia for 2 weeks and she was lovely with Mum, doing everything for her and learning to trust Otega. You could see how much Otega was naturally caring with my Mum and treated her very well and with the utmost patience too, thank you.

Having someone come in during the week to help around the house has taken a lot of pressure off me, especially on the days when my back is more difficult. The carers are always warm, approachable, and easy to get along with, which makes a big difference.
The office team are also very easy to contact and quick to respond, which makes everything run smoothly.
Overall, I feel much more supported and less worried knowing I have this help in place.

The Care Professionals were kind, patient, and very attentive, helping me with personal care as well as everyday tasks like shopping and household chores. Their support made a real difference and allowed me to recover comfortably and safely at home.
Communication with the office and management team was excellent throughout-everything was clear, responsive, and easy to arrange, which gave me real peace of mind.

After calling, they arranged a consultation at my home within a couple of days, and I was able to get help straight away. My carer took care of tasks around the house, picking up essentials for me, and helped relieve the stress and pain I was feeling trying to keep things running at home while I was on my own.
I felt taken by surprise and a little depressed at realising my lack of independence, but the staff at Home Instead were incredibly nice, efficient, and made me feel looked after and never judged. Next time I need help to keep my life together, I won't hesitate to call them again.
For anyone out there looking for short-term or long-term support, I would highly recommend Home Instead.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience. We're really pleased we were able to step in quickly and provide the support you needed during what sounds like a challenging and unexpected time.
It means a great deal to hear that our team helped ease some of the stress you were feeling and that you felt comfortable, respected, and never judged - that's exactly the kind of care experience we aim to provide every client. Maintaining independence can feel different at times of change, and we're glad we could support you in a way that felt reassuring and positive.
We truly appreciate your recommendation and your kind words about our staff. It was our privilege to support you, and we're always here whenever you might need us in the future

Tahnk you so much for taking the time to leave a review. Companionship is at the core of a Home Instead servcie, regrdless of the degree of support required, so its so encouraging to hear that this has made such a difference for your husband.

Very pleased with the care provided to my Mum which allowed us to go on holiday for a week. The care provider put my Mum at ease from the start as it was the first time she had anyone outside of family caring for her. Nothing was too much trouble and the visit was long enough for her to do what was needed and also have a lovely chat. Have already booked in further visits to cover our upcoming holidays. Great service to allow families to have a break knowing their loved one is being well looked after.
Many thanks for such a lovely review. Short-term servces such as we provided for your Mum are always very special, as we realise how difficult it can be to trust others to support loved ones in the same way as you would yourself. Its great to hear that you are so happy and are comfortable in planning further breaks - we are always here when you need us
