Everyone was very helpful and kind supporting my mum and dad ensuring they were both really well looked after as my father peacefully died. We were all helped during this sad time. The team were able to add extra support when needed

Reply from Craig Mayes, Director at Home Instead (Hinckley, Burbage & Nuneaton)

What an amazing review of our Care! It was an honour to support your parents and family at such a difficult time, the CAREGivers always felt welcomed into the home and have said they were privileged to be given the opportunity to get to know your parents. Kind Regards Home Instead - Hinckley, Burbage & Nuneaton.

We met the deputy manager before when we were looking for care for another relative and decided that we would use Home Instead when the need arose for my parents-in-law. She was clear, friendly, helpful, reassuring and managed the whole process extremely well. We liked the carers who came on the previous
occasions and are looking forward to working with them again.

5 star review! What an absolute gentleman you refer to it was an absolute joy and pleasure to spend quality time with him. We are thrilled that you rated our care so highly and you're returning to us to care for your parents in law and we cannot wait to support them to live independently at home.

My dad has support from Home Instead and I can honestly say they have changed his life. They have built him up after his stroke and giving him his confidence and independence back. He gets on well with the CAREGivers and they are matched to his needs and personality, he trusts them and that helps him
push himself to do more, especially with his exercises. He enjoys getting out when we can with the covid rules, I know they will keep him safe and have a great time.

Reply from Craig Mayes, Director at Home Instead (Hinckley, Burbage & Nuneaton)

5 star review! That is amazing and thank you so much for the review. Your dad is a pleasure to support, it is wonderful to have helped him get back to his hobby of cycling and to watch him go from strength to strength.

Very reliable, professional, caring team and an exceptional care agency. They match the carer to the client and provide continuity and are very understanding of each client's personal situation. Without a doubt, a first-rate company.

Reply from Craig Mayes, Director at Home Instead (Hinckley, Burbage & Nuneaton)

Thank you for the review. I'm told by the CAREGivers that their visits to you both are always a pleasure, you make them all laugh until their sides hurt and they all enjoy listening to your stories about your past careers. You make their jobs a dream and everyone would love a job like that. Kind regards, Home Instead Senior Care - Hinckley, Burbage & Nuneaton.

The 3 carers involved with my mum have been excellent. It's not been easy with Mum as she's very strong-willed and wouldn't always let carers do what they need with her. However, the carers have been very patient with her and let Mum go at her pace to accepting them in her daily life. It's taken a while
but Mum is getting there. The carers are loving and caring towards Mum. I can't fault them as I know it's not easy with my mum because she's always been strong-willed, which has got worse with dementia/Alzheimers. Thank you all - we really appreciate you all.

Reply from Craig Mayes, Director at Home Instead (Hinckley, Burbage & Nuneaton)

Thank you so much for the lovely review we are used to dealing with strong-willed clients and it's our role to support them live comfortably at home and if that's slowly then that's how it will be. Your mum is a joy to support, we love hearing about her life in Gibraltar before coming to the UK. She is such an interesting lady!!

We cannot speak highly enough of your wonderful team. Dad was very specific with his care needs, and they were always met with kindness and professionalism.
It was also very helpful to Mum that the team of caregivers was kept small enough for her to recognise them as her friends.
Thank you to you
all for your kindness and support.

Reply from Craig Mayes, Director at Home Instead (Hinckley, Burbage & Nuneaton)

Thank you so much, what a lovely endorsement your mum recognised our team as her friends we are honoured. Supporting your parents was always a lovely experience, we loved hearing their stories of their bowling days, and the wonderful holidays they had. It is always great to receive such wonderful feedback. Kind regards Home Instead Senior Care - Hinckley, Burbage & Nuneaton.

All the carers that helped us care for my dad during the last few weeks of his life provided excellent care and made a big difference in the quality of life for my dad. I can not thank them enough.

Reply from Craig Mayes, Director at Home Instead (Hinckley, Burbage & Nuneaton)

Thank you so much, our time with your dad was really special. We loved talking to him about his time down the mines, Liverpool Football Cub and his love of birds. We were absolutely honoured to have cared for him and supported you during this difficult time and we really appreciate you taking the time to let us know.

Makes me a cup of tea as her first job. Cleans the kitchen up if necessary and mops the floor, then goes upstairs and mops the bathroom floor. Sit and chats for the rest of the time, which is nice as I don't see many people.

We have been very happy with the support given to my parents during their visits. Staff always were pleasant and helpful in their home. Mum was always treated with dignity and respect as she faced her own challenges. Always a smiling face greeted her and supported her feelings. Wouldn't hesitate to
call again if we needed care.

Mum and dad require constant care; Along with my siblings, we were providing this. Having accessed your services, we are delighted; Mum and dad are enjoying the social interaction and the activities including and especially cooking, have been inspired.
The "time off", we as carers are now able to
take has helped to restore a healthier life balance. As such, our time spent with mum and dad is once more as it should be - thank you.

Thank-You for the positive review. We are delighted that you and your parents are feeling the benefits of Home Instead Senior Care. I couldn't resist sharing your review with the primary CAREGiver and in her words, she feels that it is a pleasure and a privilege to spend time with your parents and has been so pleased to see the positive impact her CAREGiving has had on both their lives

Dad is delighted with the care and support he gets. It has made such a difference to his life. From my point of view, I can relax knowing Dad has extremely professional carers coming in most mornings. His carers show initiative, common sense and most importantly a sense of humour.

Cannot fault the care, help and service given to my mother after coming home after a lengthy spell in hospital. Regular carers known to my mum, always on times arranged, willing to do a variety of jobs, chores to aid her. Very organised, professional and customers interests all a priority.

Thank you for the review. You have stated in your review exactly why we are different to other Home Care providers, there will never be a stranger who comes to one of our clients doors, we will come at the exact time you want us to and we will do everything we can to support our clients and their families. We really enjoyed being taught how to light the coal fire and your mothers sense of humour. All of the CAREGivers that supported her, talk so affectionately about her.

We used your service to provide care for my Mum whilst I was on holiday. We had 3 visits over 5 days, providing personal care, support in the morning. The carer had just begun with the company and visited with Mum prior to commencement. I met with the Manager prior to this to complete paperwork and
contract fee of £90.

Thank you for taking the time to review us and scoring us so highly across Staff, Care/Support, Management and Dignity. We thoroughly enjoyed our time together and are pleased we were able to support in your rehabilitation. We were disappointed to read that despite rating us highly across the areas mentioned above you felt that we were not value for money. We are not the cheapest but I do believe we deliver value for money for our clients by promising familiar CAREGivers and visits at the specific times that they request. I do not believe quality care can be delivered for less than we charge and there be a sustainable business with longevity for clients and CAREGivers.

Craig Mayes

Job Title: Director

Joined: 2018

Having spent the first 20 years of my working life around the world running pubs, restaurants and hotels following in my father's and grandfather’s footsteps, I thought it was time I worked for myself, spend more time with my young family and give something back to the community around me.


I’d watched my grandfather live to a dignified old age by being cared for by carers who in my opinion were the most caring, reliable and generous unsung heroes of our communities. However, I knew this wasn’t the right of passage for the majority of older people in our country.


This is a generation who have given so much so that we can live the privileged lives that we do so and therefore I am determined to work alongside my team here at Home Instead to “change the face of aging” encouraging older people to continue to lead a thorough and enriching life surrounded by care, companionship and support.

Emma Wheatley

Job Title: Care Manager

Joined: 2018

I have worked in the care sector since I left school with various care providers in the Hinckley & Nuneaton area. I have always loved making a difference to the lives of people I come into contact with, whether that be the people who are accessing the care or the fantastic care teams I’ve worked with.


I started my career as a Care Assistant & Activities co-ordinator, I then worked in Mental Health services and more recently as an Assistant Manager for a Day Centre & Care Home. Whilst working in care homes it became apparent that there were many people coming to live there who were not able to continue to live in the community.


I have experience caring for both the older generation and younger people with learning disabilities, I especially enjoy working with people living with dementia, and I am proud to be a Dementia Champion. When I saw Home Instead, it was wonderful to see that a company was really addressing the needs of the clients, enabling people to stay in their homes for as long as possible.


I knew it was the company for me and I am delighted to be a part of a company which shares my values. When I am not at work, I am spending time with my Husband and my 3 daughters who certainly keep us busy!! I have lived in Hinckley for 17 years and I love the close-knit feel of the community.
