The care and attention given to my parents is very good. The care team engage fully with both mum and dad. They cope with my dad's occasional odd sense of humour and both parents are very pleased with the care given. My sisters and I live over 300 miles away and have come to rely on the daily
reports we receive. Any issues we have are dealt with quickly and professionally by the manager and the team. We could not ask for more.

Over the last 2 1/2 years of service from this company, we have both been extremely pleased with the level of care, friendliness, helpfulness and compassion from all the staff. The Office Staff are very efficient and helpful should any hiccups occur.
Would highly recommend this service and long
may they continue.

I remember being daunted and nervous about arranging care for my mum after a fall and a spell in hospital. When I contacted Home Instead I knew I had found the right provider. They understood my mother's needs, were professional and made sure my parents were comfortable with the care that was being
provided. All the carers were excellent, and a delight to get to know. They focused on mum's needs and the daily communication provided me with a full understanding on how she was progressing. After awhile my dad also needed some care which Home Instead provided, at times this was challenging care but all the carers supported mum and dad wonderfully until eventually my parents needs required 24 hour care in a care home. If you are hesitating to contact Home Instead, don't hesitate anymore, you will be pleased and relieved that you made the call.

Our father has been receiving a comprehensive level of care from Home Instead (HI) for many months now and from my point of view they have been excellent. We are now able to go away and leave our father for short periods of time knowing that Home Instead can be trusted to deliver a high level of
service, support and professionalism. This included the collecting and administering of new medication whist we were away. Their daily tasks involve intimate care, help with dressing, the planning and serving of all his meals, light housework, all his washing and ironing and most importantly companionship.
From our father's point of view he has a consistent team who have really got to know him and who care for his needs in a dignified and professional manner enabling him to remain at home for as long as possible and most importantly they make him laugh.

My mother and father truly benefitted from the care they received from Home Instead. The carers were punctual, caring and hard working. My mother has dementia and the carers experience came to the fore as they were able to manage her daily needs and care with just the right touch. I would definitely
recommend Home Instead.

Mum and I have found the care given by Home Instead excellent.
Mum came out of a care home to be cared for in her own home after hip surgery four years ago. Mum is now 99 years old, has carers twice a day and has a lot of help from myself.
The carers have been punctual, genuinely caring,
efficient, adaptable and hard working. They have become friends to Mum and myself. The team remains generally stable and any new carers are carefully supervised in their new role.
Management are helpful and sympathetic, any problems are quickly rectified and we have a regular thorough review.
All care is expensive but this care provider represents good value for money in this market.
This care gives Mum the best quality of life available, maintains her independence in her own home and enables me to spend quality time with Mum.
I thoroughly recommend this company.

Excellent provider of quality care.
My experience with the manager and his professional, kind team has been exemplary.
They have and continue to look after my husband since May 2021. They are totally reliable and helpful when I need to change dates.
A superb company I would highly recommend.
30 May 2024
A wonderful company staffed by professional and kind staff who have made a real impact on the quality of life for my father and mother, as his carer.
Right from the first meeting with the care manager we were impressed and reassured. He took time to get to know my family; what we needed, my
father's interests as well as full health details. At no point were we rushed to sign a contract (unlike other companies we met with!), however once we were ready the carers were rapidly in place.
The company believes in and delivers, a small team approach to care with wonderful, reassuring and knowledgeable carers. They really engage with Dad throughout the sessions, but also keep an eye on Mum. The carers were introduced by the manager in person and we always know who is coming in.
The care package has already been tweaked as needs have changed, but the ease of contact with the manager has meant that changes to the level of care are seamless.
A massive thank you from all the family.

Human beings treating human beings as they would like to be treated themselves is all that needs to be said about this excellent provider. From the start of a difficult journey, and during, we have been overwhelmed by the kindness and support we have received. Special mention must go to the care
manager and another member of staff in particular to whom we will always be very grateful. On behalf of our entire family, thank you.
31 July 2023
I cannot speak highly enough of this super company and it starts at the top for sure. The manager is very approachable, helpful and intuitive and he really listens carefully and works out what the family as a whole needs. The carers that visit Mum are lovely, and Mum feels she has made new friends.
The level of support offered to the family as a whole is superb.
08 July 2022
A kind, helpful, knowledgeable team who have been a huge asset and help with caring for both my mum and dad. The carers are compassionate and caring.
We regularly recommend Home Instead to our friends.
08 July 2022
I would thoroughly recommend Home Instead as a care provider. Their staff are well trained, friendly and efficient; they support without patronising, and nothing is too much trouble. The company communicates any changes of staff visits very well and makes sure that all contacts are introduced to the
client before they visit so there are no concerns of an unfamiliar face.
06 July 2022
Home Instead is providing a wonderful service for my elderly mother. The carers are amazing, staying cheerful at all times, whatever the circumstances. Their professionalism and empathy command my utmost respect. So too does the experience I have had of the two managers at head office who have
accommodated our needs brilliantly, even through the pandemic. Well done, Home Instead, and thank you all enormously.
06 July 2022
The team look after Mum very well. Happy to recommend service to others.
05 July 2022
Very pleased with the communication throughout the organisation. Excellent access to management and a positive ‘can do’ attitude from everyone.
Very pleased with the two caregivers we work with, they are making a real difference.
Well done to all and thanks for providing a super experience and
service.

The Truro branch of Home Instead provided care for our mother for over two years until her recent death. The care package was ramped up from an initial five one-hour visits a week, to three one-hour visits a day as my mother become more frail and her care needs increased.
The standard and
reliability were outstanding in all aspects, from initial contact with the management team, through to the ongoing care visits, throughout dealing with the extra demands and restrictions imposed during the Covid-19 pandemic. The carers consistently provided Mum with exactly what she needed. Starting with largely companionship and routine welfare visits, this later progressed through to full support, including meal preparation and personal hygiene care. The carers were diligent and thoughtful, and they all treated our mother with exceptional kindness and took time to engage with her and listen to her preferences and needs.
Without a doubt, the Home Instead team were the main factor in allowing my mother to stay in her own home during her final years, which was her most fervent and often-expressed wish. We cannot thank Home Instead enough for their service to our mother, and we would have no hesitation in recommending them to others.

These people are so caring. They are efficient, kind and really go the extra mile to deliver a truly personal service.
My mother immediately took to two staff members and treats each like a member of the family. The staff are quick to contact me if there are any problems or if they are concerned
about mother. They have been particularly efficient during the recent pandemic.

This home care company provides excellent home care. My Father is always treated with dignity and respect. The carers are of an extremely high calibre and are well trained. Their judgement is excellent and both they, and their office team, have excellent communication skills. I am always made aware
of any concerns regarding my Father's health and wellbeing. Earlier this month, the swift actions of one of the carers led to my Father's pneumonia, and subsequent sepsis, being spotted very quickly and he is recovering well. That carer returned to the house, in her own time to wait with me for the Dr and later visited him in hospital, which made his day! This was above and beyond what you could possibly expect from a service. Others have made him special homemade meals and helped him with his 'office work' which makes him happy. Both Dad and I couldn't do without this team of people.

Like many older people, my mother is determined to live in her own home for as long as possible. She had been in receipt of a care package arranged by the local Social Services for about three years. Following a nasty fall which resulted in a hospital stay in May this year she was sent on to a local
care home to complete her recovery. Unfortunately, she then lost her care package.
After three months in the care home, she was desperate to return home. Home Instead were amongst many that I contacted and were immediately receptive and helpful even though they were at that time unable to take Mum on. I put Mum's name on their waiting list and as luck would have it they made contact a few weeks later. Their staff seem to be a little more experienced than most and Mum is full of praise for their efforts and attentive ways. Their minimum one hour visits have worked brilliantly. If you are looking for a care provider to look after someone close to you then I recommend you give them a try!
05 December 2018
Very supportive staff, both carers and office staff. As I don’t live in the UK, I need to be completely confident in the care given by the company and I also feel supported myself. My family and I feel very fortunate indeed that we found Home Instead.
