    Our aunt died last week, and my sister and I had to travel out of state. Mom is unable to travel due to her medical conditions. We require 24/7 caregivers, we were a little nervous, but each caregiver was just as caring and committed as Stephanie.

    We were blessed to have Frederick's Home Instead caregivers provide daily visits for our dad who lived alone and needed help with chores and shopping. The staff was wonderfully responsive to our shifting needs and unpredictable schedule, and everyone was consistently positive and helpful. We appreciated the professionalism, problem-solving, and friendliness that characterized our every interaction with them.

    The helpers who have come are willing and able. Some will proceed to do things. I’ve asked with little or no supervision, those who need a little guidance accept it in good cheer and are willing to do more than they’re told to do. Each helper has been just that—a big help.

    I had someone come on two occasions from Home Instead. It was short term. The caregiver was excellent. I was completely comfortable with her. They provide assistance with housekeeping, chores and laundry, assistance with walking, and practice outside. She reached things I couldn't reach. She was generally very helpful. Whatever I needed, she was agreeable to doing. The scheduling was very easy. We chose it because it had a five-star rating, and that was a good indication.

She's prompt, responsible, and professional along with having a friendly and welcoming personality with my Family and my Mom. Carol helps my Mom complete all of her needed tasks during every visit and goes above and beyond what is needed. We would definitely recommend her for anyone else seeking a caretaker for a Loved One.

    My parent has home care now from Home Instead. It was one that was recommended by her primary doctor. We have been using them for about two months now. We're very pleased with the regular person that we have for her. She is fantastic. She would come in two days a week. She does light housekeeping and cooking. She would be there as a companion for my mother. However, with the holiday, there was a substitute who came in her place and she wasn't as good as the regular. We did let the company know though. Overall, the company is very good.

    First rate service. We used Home Instead for my Mom. she had two different care givers both of whom she loved. They actually did a personality match to provide care givers who had shared interests with my Mom. She was a huge nature lover. The office staff was very helpful too and came out with the care givers for their first shift to do introductions and make sure my Mom had everything she needed. Zero complaints!

    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). Where you live also has a significant impact on the cost of home care, as national chains scale their local prices to the cost of living in a given area.

    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.
