They sort of do everything I need to have done, and they do it very successfully. The people that come are very nice, and they do the work they are supposed to do.

The caregiver does a lot for me. She gives me showers, and she makes sure I get fed. The girl I have is very good. She helps me around the house.

Jean W_22

All of it is helpful. The caregivers are good at their job and they are dependable.

They made life easier because I didn't have to go to the basement to do the wash, and I also didn't have to make my bed. I had surgery and couldn't walk, so they walked with me in the event that I had fallen. There is also a security in having someone in the home when alone. That played a large role. My emotional and physical needs were met. They have done what they could do for me, I had no complaints, they did a good job, and they were lovely people. I was very pleased.

Claudette H_1

I only have them three days a week, but they are very helpful. They help me with the laundry and ask me if there is anything they can do for me. They take very good care of me, they watch and make sure I don't fall. They are very helpful.

I have multiple disabilities, and it's difficult to move around, I need someone present to help me if I fall. There are issues with the financial billing system. We are billed every two weeks and are past due because of that.

They keep him safe while I'm working. They seem to care. A supervisor came to introduce the substitute when someone had to call in. They are thorough, and they understand the importance of their role.

Cannot say enough good things about the care my father receives from this agency. Marth J., Samantha, and their supervisor, Judy G., treat my dad with dignity and respect while providing excellent care. Thank you!

Nurse is excellent. Companion is awesome. Helps my mom with chores around the house, paints her nails, takes her places and they look at photo albums together.

Barbara

We are fortunate to have Cathy as our worker with our disabled veterans in my home. She is wonderful and very good to our gentlemen. Our Statesville office is contracted with the V.A. Cathy is a tribute to them.

We have been very happy with the Home Instead care givers for my mother over the past three months. We use them to fill in where family can't, usually 2-4 days a month. We has enjoyed every caregiver. I also like that I can look online and see who is with her at any given time.

chrised

Sometimes it is very hard to provide care and get your own appointments done. Home Instead has allowed me the benefit of being with my family part time and also free time to take care of my own needs.

Brittany853807

Having the same dependable caregiver is just a blessing. I am glad I am able to count on them to take care of mom.

Home Instead has been a gift from God to our family. My Dads health has improved daily since Home Instead came into the picture. They have all been great to work with from the office staff to the care givers. From my experience they are very honest, an a great support system for me while taking care of Dad.

Great care for my dad

ddavis02

Everyone is VERY responsive to any questions, concerns or changes that may arise. The patient's needs are the primary concern.

captburksgirl

You moved very quickly to help us in an emergency situation and you were very flexible with our needs in a very stressful and rough time. Emily was a joy and I was very comfortable knowing she was with my Dad taking care of him. You kept me up to date all the time on what was going on and had a great communication system to let us know how he did each day. You also alerted me to anything I needed be aware of regarding his surroundings or actions.

I love this Company and the people that work for them. They do a great job with my mother. I especially love how the young lady Jessica answers the phone and is always happy. It helps to brighten my day. I recommend them to all of my friends.

Dear Creighton and Tracey, Although it has been some time since we worked with Home Instead, I wanted to write and say thank you for all your help when I needed it with my father. The caregivers you selected both during the time he was able to stay in his home and when he needed extra attention at the facility, were all so helpful and took such good care of him. Hollace and Jackie made it possible for him to be at home longer and after all that time they both came to his funeral. Nancy and Amber came to the facility and sat with him through some transitional times in his illness. You and Home Instead provide a valuable and much needed service for the community. I am grateful. I would recommend you to anyone who asks. Pattie T

Donna Chubb

Scarlet is an excellent caregiver. She is great at communicating with my father. She has experience with older people and does not treat them like children. She follows directions well and is very thorough. She has good people skills and shows interest in their personal lives.

My experience with Home Instead Senior Care so far has been positive. I don't have any complaints. We're using them in a very limited way. They come once a week for three hours to do some cleaning, and light housekeeping. What impressed me was they were very proactive in reaching out to us, and they had good phone manners. They seemed interested in coming down to visit, and find out about our needs.

We are using Home Instead's caretakers, and they're fabulous. They're excellent and professional. We're glad we chose them. The one thing that really stands out is that they took our caretaker and trained her for days to do things the proper way. 24 hours a day, if there was a problem, you could call them. Their bills are on time and correct. They're so good with my mother-in-law. Even the nurse that comes is terrific.

Esther Cole

Helpers are always on time, pleasant to have around and willing to do anything I need.

Daniel Rodola

Tracy is simply the best! She is caring, efficient, dependable. We couldn't ask for a better friendly-caregiver.

Home Instead Senior Care is a very professionally run home care organization that truly cares about the welfare of their clients. After my mother had several falls, the last being a fractured pelvis, I was faced with the responsibility to get help for my mother. She was in much pain and unable to be left alone. After asking a nurse in the Statesville area, and asking another professional in the health care field, I was advised that Home Instead would be an excellent choice for home care. After making an appointment with Home Instead, I realized I would be unable to leave my mother to go to their office. The owner actually came to my mother's house to explain the services that were offered. That was 5 months ago, and I have nothing but praise for the staff and the owners of the company. Its is a very qualified staff and everyone is very friendly and pleasant. They have the most up-to-date technology available in the health care field. They are always able to help you with any questions or issues you may have. If you truly want the best care or your loved one, I would highly recommend Home Instead Senior Care. You will be able to rest assured that you have given your family member the best care possible.

Mom started with Home Instead a week after my online inquiry. The first week they had someone else, the second week they had this woman and she has been there since then. My mom just praises her caregiver all the time. When I’m there, the caregiver is very polite to me. I spoke to her and told her not to take my mom to the grocery often and everything had been better. There was an instance where I called but it was hard for them to answer my questions. It took two days for them to leave a message. I called back at night and they said they will call me in the morning. But it was a day after that somebody got hold of me.

Our relationship with Home Instead Senior care is great! Our caregiver is professional, compassionate, caring, responsible, considerate and a very hard worker. She is making a difference in allowing my dad to be able to stay in our family home and we are so thankful to have her. We know that if ever there is a time she is not available, that we will have another qualified, trustworthy, caring person to fill in for her. Thank you Home Instead for being there for us!!

We chose to hire the services of Home Instead Senior Care for my grandfather because of the reputation they had for being the best at what they did. When they came out to talk to us, they listened to what we were looking for and what my grandfather's needs were. The caregiver they sent was absolutely wonderful and she became like part of the family. If for some reason she couldn't be there, we knew that they would send an equally capable person to care for him. I felt that the caregiver and my grandfather matched perfectly and we have been nothing but pleased.

My father is a current client of Home Instead Senior Care, Statesville, NC. I am an RN with extensive home care and long term care experience and evaluated many home care providers before choosing Home Instead for my Dad. I couldn't be more pleased with their level of integrity and quality of care. The management staff is extremely professional and compassionate, providing very timely response to service requests. My Dad receives Home Health Aide and Companion Services 7 days per week, and has had the same caregiver since start of service almost 2 months ago. Their quality of care and level of communication & oversight is excellent - I can't speak highly enough of this organization. I rest much easier knowing that my Dad is in their reliable care.

There are constant changes in caregivers with this office. Multiple times they have had new or substitute caregivers show up in the morning and come into the house with my parent asleep without notifying anyone. That has been very disturbing to me and my parent as they wake up to see a stranger in their house. Part of their service is to provide meals, but they send caregivers that don't know how to cook and admit they do no screening to verify if their caregivers can cook. There is no education on normal dietary needs of older people, such as how to provide low sodium or diabetic meals. One caregiver did not even know what a carbohydrate was and was serving potato soup, potato salad, baked potatoes, mashed potatoes, cornbread, etc at most every meal to a diabetic. Poor caregivers are just cycled on to someone else...maybe you. They do not ask you about making changes in caregivers or review potential caregivers with you to, they just make changes as they see fit, and state if you don't like them let us know and we will send someone else. Your loved one does not want a constant changing of people coming in to help them take baths, dress, and see them nude. Our loved ones, however fragile, still have some dignity. This office does not treat them that way. This office requires that payment for their bill be received 10 days after they mail it. Meaning, you have to write a check and get it back in the mail within 1 day, since a weekend will occur during that time. If two weekends are in that 10 day period you will have to drive to their office and take it to them for it to get there within those 10 days, or they charge late fees. If you decide to use them, someone needs to go the the home EVERY day to check on your loved one. Read the client log EVERY day. Talk to your loved one and make sure that what they are writing in the log is true. Sometimes it is not. The caregivers will put down what they were supposed to do, but that is not always what happened. Sometimes they actually do tell the truth, and it can be shocking. I recommend finding another option besides this company if it is at all possible.
