    After an absolutely horrible experience with an Agency coming to our home I was very uncomfortable trusting someone else. So we were very happy when Nicole explained Home Instead services and what we should expect. They live up to my high expectations. Carmela is the best ! Prompt, reliable , knowledgable ,helpful and respectful. She has the perfect knack of balancing our privacy with getting things done. We appreciate her every single time she comes.

    Our mother hired Home Instead to provide 24-hour care for our father, who had dementia, while she battled lung cancer. After she passed, Home Instead continued to care for our father in his home. My sister and I did not live there with him, but we visited daily and entrusted the Home Instead team to care for him while we were not there. While there were challenges at times, under those circumstances we would do the same thing again. Our father got to stay in his home, where we hoped the familiarity would bring some comfort. He received individual attention from people who genuinely cared about him. The hospice social workers and nurses who visited him during his final months were complimentary of the caregivers and said that our father’s situation was much better than even the best facilities. The care is certainly not the least expensive, but if you or your loved one can afford it, it is a good option to consider.

    My caregivers help me by feeding me, assisting with bathing, changing, care of my needs and going with me to doctor’s appointments. I have two caregivers Jennifer and Jack who do a great job. They are helpful, positive and fun. I am deaf and Jennifer knows some ASL and is able to communicate with me and help me communicate with others. Jack looks up signs to try and communicate with me. I also have a great coordinator Nicole who checks on me, listens to my questions & concerns, and communicates with the facility I live at to make sure I am getting good care.

    My caregivers help me by feeding me my meals and assisting with other care needs. My caregivers Jennifer and Jack do a very good job, take me out into the community and are positive and fun. Jennifer communicates with me through ASL. Jack looks up signs to help with communication. Also, if I have any questions or concerns, I can trust that my CC Nicole will help me and communicate with my facility to make sure I’m getting good care.

    My husband suffers from Alzheimer’s disease and I used Home Instead caregivers for both daytime and evening support. The office staff were always available to answer any questions I had and were able to adjust the scheduling to fit any changes that came up. All the caregivers were well trained and the overnight staff were especially capable of dealing with my husband who wandered all night. The staff went above and beyond the call of duty to put into place the overnight caregivers on very short notice and I really appreciated that. I would highly recommend Home Instead to anyone who is looking for home care.

    Thanks so much for assigning Cecilia as a driver/caregiver for me yesterday afternoon. She is a whiz-bang. She is very people-oriented. Cecilia drove me to visit my grandson's great family, including two 7-month-old twins. I met and held them in person for the first time! An unforgettable experience. This was a fine example of the service Home Instead has provided me for more than four years.

    Jean (client care coordinator) came into our lives at a very vulnerable time. Even tho we just met a couple of months ago, I feel like we have been friends for a long time and that she was familiar with my mother and her needs. Jean was able to provide 2 wonderful, amazing helpers quickly. Cecil is so calm...her foresight, experience and patience are so evident. Amore is engaging, energetic, fun, creative and stimulating. I am amazed and grateful for the improvement that my mother has shown and how receptive she is to both ladies. My brothers and I also appreciate their open communication of helpful suggestions and concerns. Thank you does not seem adequate for giving our family peace of mind knowing that our mother is in such good hands.

    I write these words with the greatest gratitude and highest respect, for each and every HI care professional, lead care giver, case manager, HI office staff and her management team that have become and been family, to our dear sister 24 hours a day for a number of years. They will be with her and us through her remaining days. The consistent quality of care, communication, interaction, and oversight of all activities with our sister, each other, with her family--all of us, and others involved, is impressive and appreciated greatly. Shift reports, conference calls, phone calls, e.mails, text messages, slow mail letters, and face to face conversations, when family members are visiting, are clearly an indication of the highest level of care for our sister, and the relationships developed with her family. The positive and affirming responses to every and any special need or request from family members are respected and handled immediately.

    As of March 14, 2023 I have employed the services of your agency. I have found it to professionally fulfill my needs. When Rosa came things got even better. All the aides were good and competent but Rosa is outstanding. I recommend your agency and especially Rosa highly. It is important to me to get to know someone when you count on them instead of meeting a new person everyday.

    I have been a client of Home Instead for over 2 years. I have been really happy with my caregiver, Shannon. Shannon helps me get to my appointments, takes me out shopping, and helps me keep my home clean and organized. Shannon has taught me how to be more mindful of the food I eat and am now healthier and in better shape than I was a year ago. I have been able to continue to live a fulfilled and active lifestyle. Thanks to Home Instead!

    Home Instead cared for our father for nearly 3 years. They were extremely communicative and flexible with regard to our father's increasing care needs as his neurodegenerative disorder and old age progressed. They endeavored to develop consistency of caregivers which was very difficult due to Covid. We don't know where Home Instead found such caring and capable people to provide difficult in-home care but the caregivers were terrific!

They have worked with me to keep consistent staff members with my family member. They also listen when there has not been a good fit between the caregiver and my mother; and have looked for another caregiver.

    My experience with Home Instead has been lukewarm at best. They committed one thing and then were unable to actually find an attendance or anybody to care for my parents. They are responsive, and they will call you back, but as far as providing care on a regular basis, it’s difficult.

    How Much Does Home Instead Charge for Home Care?

    Home care costs vary based on several factors, including the type of services required, how often one needs assistance, and the timing of the services (i.e., overnight vs. daytime care).

    When planning for home care costs, keep in mind that the national average cost is about $26 per hour, though prices in your location may be higher or lower. You can contact a Family Advisor to learn more about home care costs and payment options in your area.
