Home Instead (Perthshire)

The carers from Perth branch were very kind and thoughtful while looking after my husband. My husband trusted his carers which is an important factor when such a personal service is being provided.

We had one serious issue which was handled very professionally, dealt with immediately and without hesitation, for which we were both very grateful.

If you are looking for a professional company to care for your loved one I would certainly recommend the Perth branch of Home Instead.

However, we would highly recommend Home Instead and are very grateful for the assistance they provided over the past few years

Heather sees me Tuesdays and Thursdays. Excellent help in every way.

An excellent company

Home Instead Perth have been providing care to mum for almost three years now and it honestly has been the best decision we've made.

The care professionals are just great. Mum really trusts them as they are always so friendly, capable and work at her pace.

The office team 'behind the scenes' are so helpful too - whenever I speak to them they are so accomodating with any changes that we need to make. It really is reassuring that mum has people like this helping her and I would absolutely recommend Home Instead Perth.

Having changed from my previous provider, home instead have given me hope for a brighter future. They are nothing but supportive helpful and support me in all aspects of life for a better future. My family and friends see such a positive change in me, They have commented I have a new lease of life. Prior to home instead I felt like I had given up. They came in as strangers and now I do not know what I would do without their 5 star care every day.

Mum benefits from an hour a day of service from Home Instead carers. The carers come in the morning and it gives Mum a sense of purpose and anticipation. She is up ready for them arriving and likes to make them toast and coffee, allowing her to keep up these essential skills. Mum enjoys the chat with the caers and they help her with light household chores. Home Instead is keeping my Mum at home, safely and without anxiety. It maybe in the future we need to up the hours to include an evening visit. I will have absolutely no concerns in doing this. I find the central staff very easy to contact and I beleive they keep me well informed as to the day to day running of Mum's care. Thnak you to all staff concerned.

My mother has one carer who visits each morning Monday to Friday and another carer who visits on Saturday and Sunday mornings. I was a little concerned at the start about how my mother would adjust to having a carer. However, both carers are friendly and helpful and very quickly put her at ease. They are doing an excellent job. I would be very happy to recommend Home Instead to anyone in need of care.

I have been able to step back and when I visit now I can actually sit and have time with my son.

The Carers and Administration Staff for the them were excellent. The Carers bonded with the Clients, were sympathetic to their needs, cooked, cleaned, did washing and ironing and above all made friends with them. Cannot speak highly enough of their efforts. Dealing with the Finance Department was a challenge that we could have done without, however, it finally came good in the end.

My sister and I are very happy with the dedication, care, kindness and patience that the Perth team show towards our parents who both have dementia, and can be quite trying at times! We also appreciate the fact that they keep us in the loop and contact us if they have any worries or concerns with mum or dad, or if there is to be any change to the time of the visit or staff availability.

Exemplary care carried out with compassion, dignity and kindness. A very professional team. We have become very fond of them all.

It is a very personalised service and they are always willing to listen and change things as needed. Our care professional is excellent. With her attention to detail, we know our mum is in very safe and caring hands.

I highly recommend this service.

Home Instead have been providing companionship visits for my widowed father, who has dementia, for over a year now. As he has dementia he much prefers seeing the same carers regularly and Home Instead has largely succeeded with this noting this isn't easy to achieve. The carers who have attended have all been professional and reliable as well as understanding and caring which is appreciated by my father and the wider family. The support from the office has been excellent too. Thank you.

Home Instead has been a lifesaver for me and my mother in providing us with the extra support we so desperately needed. The Home Instead team went above and beyond to assist us and was so supportive and professional from the outset. I would not hesitate in recommending them to anyone looking for compassionate care and support for their loved ones.

The carer was wonderful, kind, gentle, and very caring. She was able to calm Mum when she was distressed and she kindly brought art supplies as I told her Mum liked art. My only negative point is that she couldn't drive and Mum likes to go out in the car.

Very considerate carers who treated my father with respect and kindness. The carers not only looked after my father but also his home and always maintained a high standard of hygiene and cleanliness.

I requested the help of Home Instead to provide companionship visits to my 93-year-old mother, who is sadly now not able to socialise as much as she used to. Everyone I have dealt with has been extremely professional, courteous and, above all, focused on providing the best and most appropriate service to suit my mother's needs. Great care was taken to 'match' the right care professional for my mother and the visits have proved to be a great success. The service is very flexible and can be adapted should care needs change. This is extremely important, as circumstances can change very quickly. Information, follow-up and feedback are regularly given and nothing is too much trouble. Their help and support have been exemplary.

All carers are extremely professional and dedicated. They offer great service, very helpful and courteous. They go the extra mile.
