Home Instead provided an excellent standard of care and support to my mother. All the carers were reliable and my mother go on well with them and enjoyed their visits. Communication between the carer, the office and I worked very well. The minimum visit duration of one hour during the day makes them
expensive if multiple visits are needed during the day.

My father has dementia and has been assisted by Home Instead carers for the past 18 months. I found the carers to be professional, kind, and considerate to their client's needs. They were always willing to help out in any way they could. I would highly recommend Home Instead as a home care company.

Home Instead have been providing care for my father for 4-years. The service is excellent, and the carers are wonderful. They carry out their duties with warmth, efficiency and care. We feel very lucky to have found an organisation which prides itself on the quality of its care provision and takes quality
assurance so seriously. I can’t recommend them enough.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We, my wife and myself have had numerous care companies over the last 7-year, but the last two years has been Home Instead. From day one, we found them to be very professional in all aspects of work from management down to the carers; things are done right every time, and no complaints have even been
cut. My wife has had three strokes and needs extensive washing, dressing, etc at her own speed. All the girls adjust to her specific requirements and talk and chat to her, making her feel special. This has brought her on leaps and bounds, and my wife has become a better person to me. I would be proud to call any one of these girls my daughter of a friend; "let it continue" 10/10 and our thanks to everyone.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum is 91, frail but has positive mental health. I moved in to care for her but I also work full time. This meant that although I would give mum breakfast and set her up with a packed lunch she would be alone all day. She needed care in the daytime to assist her well being, make her a hot meal and
assist her without anything she struggled with. I had tried two other care agencies and who were a lot cheaper but they were awful. I was paying for an hour - they only stayed ten minutes and some of the staff were awful. Home Instead carers are basically top class and you are paying for a high class service. What they say they will deliver they do. They are extremely organised, efficient and the carers are exemplary. The carers had fantastic skills and made mum feel at ease and stopped me worrying about her as I knew they were meeting her needs. They always stayed with mum for the full hour and were committed to providing wonderful care.

We began the service with Home Instead in March 2020. Over the two months to date, we have all been extremely satisfied with the service provided. My brother and sister-in-law look forward to their daily visit. They tell me that all the ladies who visit them are charming, very kind and a pleasure
to spend time with. The service is very professional, very reliable and effective. It is a source of comfort to the rest of the family knowing that they are so happy with the provision. I am impressed that we get regular phone calls from the managers, checking on how well the service is being provided. Everyone is so friendly and approachable. Everything is great and we would like to thank the ladies for everything that they do. We are very grateful to you all.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Home Instead became my father's care provider from June 2019 until his death in February 2020. They became my father's Care Providers after my father's previous care providers handed back the contract whilst Dad was in hospital, leaving Dad with the prospect of having to remain in hospital for another
3 weeks after he was deemed ready for discharge, as he had to be "put out to tender" by his Social Worker. I rang Home Instead, and they were able to provide 4 CareGivers a day for 1 hour at each visit beginning the next day.
Home Instead did not let my family down and cared for my father in a compassionate, efficient way allowing my father to retain his dignity in sometimes difficult situations. The CareGivers are an exceptional group of people and are the chief asset of the company. At the end of Dad's life his needs required 2 CareGivers for each visit and very experienced staff were scheduled for these visits. They were all known to Dad and were absolutely wonderful caring for us.

After much research for a home care provider for my elderly Aunt, in need of some extra help at home, I chose Home Instead Senior Care (Newport, Cwmbran & Chepstow).
My Aunt is a very independent person but agreed she did need help. The arrangements have now been in place since March 2020 and she is
delighted with the care she receives and is enjoying the company too. I couldn't be more pleased!
A huge thank you to all the Staff and Carers at Home Instead, who are working under very difficult conditions during the Covid19 pandemic keeping our loved ones safe. Heroes all!

Home Instead Senior Care (Newport, Cwmbran & Chepstow) have supported both of my parents to continue living in their own home. Their implementation of care Package was exceptional at what was, and for all families, will be an extremely difficult time. They support independent living in an extremely
respectful and considerate manner. The whole team are really caring, professional, reliable and patient. The care support is second to none.

I cannot speak highly enough of Home Instead Senior Care and the excellent quality of care provided for my aunt.
As a new client, her original care plan required an immediate review due to her changing needs and the response from the Home Instead team was brilliant.
The family would never have managed
on their own and to all the staff (caregivers, office team and manager), I say a huge thank you for all your care, support, compassion and understanding during a very difficult time.

The care team cared for my cousin, in her home, for the last two weeks of her life 24/7.
The care and kindness they showed her was exceptional, they were also very kind and considerate to us her family.
Since her death, we continue to employ them to care for her husband.
I wouldn't hesitate to
recommend them.

The standard of personal care from Home Instead has been outstanding and a real help to my mother and my family over the past 6 months. They have provided her with invaluable assistance enabling her to stay living in her house for as long as possible. The individual carers have all been excellent assisting
with everyday living activities at home, when required with personal care such as showering and getting dressed but also and more importantly providing companionship and really engaging with my mother. Home Instead were able to react quickly and put the required care in place at very short notice. They also provided a level of consistency with the carers that we, as a family, really appreciated.

My experience with your company has been so good. I really can't thank them enough for the service my team have given me. I couldn't have managed without them. This year I have had a nasty fall which left me unable to cope myself. My needs have been met completely (broken shoulder and broken wrist).

The standard of personal care from Home Instead has been outstanding and a real help to my father over the past 18 months or so, providing him with invaluable assistance when both living at home and more recently at a care home. As well as assisting with everyday living activities at home, in the care
home environment, it has still been of great value taking him out to enjoy activities and assisting with personal care such as showering getting dressed and providing companionship and extra company.

Home Instead Senior Care Newport is great - the system of an existing carer introducing a new carer was much appreciated by my father. The genuine concern to get things right for Dad, the individual approach and flexibility are strong, especially when we have needed to make changes and put additional
caregiving in place. It is reassuring to see both back office and carers working together to get things right. Thank you all.

Karen Clatworthy

Job Title: Director Joined: 2017

I opened Home Instead Newport, Cwmbran and Chepstow in October 2017 with my daughter Laura. I was thrilled to find Home Instead and to have the opportunity in the community that I have grown up in to be able to make a difference in the lives of the elderly. Having experienced caring for a close family member I know exactly how important good heartfelt care is.


I was attracted to Home Instead for its high-quality care and its ethos where the focus is on building a caring, trusting relationship between our client and our Care Professionals, which supports older people remaining living independently at home. We provide our clients with the very best support and will always work hard to make sure things are right for them. In my spare time, I like to spend time with my family, walk my dogs and read. I am also a trustee of the Noah's Ark Children's Hospital for Wales and I fundraise regularly for the children's hospital to help with providing play specialists, new equipment, refurbishments and much more.
