My family has used Home Instead to support my dad for six months (5 days per week, 3-5 hours per day). Our "typical" schedule is complex and there were additional vacations this summer that made the calendar even more complicated. Shannon in the office has been fantastic and so patient as we worked through things. The nurse (Darlene) overseeing my dad's case has been very attentive and caring. My dad just mentioned the other day how caring and helpful Greg has been as the daily caregiver.

We've been using Home Instead for two-and-a-half months now. The caregiver comes twice a week and is a companion for my mom if my dad wants to get out, that kind of thing. They'll play games together, fold laundry, or do little things in the kitchen because my mother has dementia. It depends on how my mom's doing that day. Her name is Melody. We're very pleased with how she cares about my mom. In terms of scheduling, they're excellent. If my parents have appointments and they have to cancel, she comes the next week.

Lisa has been with us for nine months now. I knew I would like her right away. When I opened the door to let her in, my dog got out. She chased him all over the neighborhood until he ran home. Since then, she has been our cook, cleaner, , counselor, advisor, and driver to countless appointments. She has made me laugh through some very difficult times. She has been a cheerleader for my 94 yr. Old mom For eating her food and not giving it to the dog. She is great giving my mom pills and her eye drops. Lisa has become a friend. She encourages me to walk without my walker and start driving.

I've been a client of Home Instead for 13 years now. They come once a week. It's excellent. We get along very well with the person that comes here, and she bonded with my wife. Everything's perfect. They take care of my wife when I go out and run errands once a week. The caretaker that comes here, Polly, is excellent.

I've been a client of Home Instead for about eight months now. They're dependable. Lisa is real nice, and she's good at what she does. She's very helpful. I use them once a week for three hours. They help with light housework, meal prepping, they can go shopping for me if I need it, and general home care. She's very personable, caring, and understanding.

My father has been a client of Home Instead for five years now. Their service is great. I've never had any issue or problem with any caregiver. They just do it right because they make sure the client and the caregiver mesh. I use them three days a week. I think that they're very intuitive on tasks that they have to perform. My father is in a situation where he can't do household chores. He can't vacuum, he cannot bend over, and he can't flip his mattress or change his bed linens. He can do some of the laundry, but he can't do all of it. These are the things that they assist him with. They adhere to a schedule that he likes and he's flexible, but it just seems to work because they can get all the tests done that he needs in a week completed. They help with food preparation, shopping, medication management, making sure that his pills are picked up, and that he's taking his pills. They're not administering them, but they're making sure that he's taking them. I looked at all the homecare agencies and I looked at their reviews and I chose them because they were ranked very high.

I've been using Home Instead for about six to eight months now. I like it very much. I'm very well pleased with the gal that I was given to help me out. Her name is Ruth. I use them two or three days a week. She helps me in the house, straightens up, gets me ready for meals, and gets me ready to get out of my bathrobe and into some clothes. I'm very happy to have her. It's usually morning, so that works out very good for me. She's super. I had a couple other agencies, but this one surpasses that other ones I had. We really all appreciate Ruth being here. She goes above and beyond the call of duty. If I find anybody else that needs somebody good, I'm going to refer Ruth to them as well.

I've been using Home Instead for about four years now, once a week. The aides are very nice and helpful. They do the cleaning of my apartment and if I need stuff from the store, they go to the store for me. When my groceries come, they help put it all away. The aide I have is very good. She keeps everything clean and that's what I need done.

My caregiver from Home Instead is definitely a five. I've been with them for at least two years now. I was using them once a week, and then earlier this year until now, I see her twice a week for two-and-a-half hours each day. I receive household services, laundry, dishes, helping me to organize my apartment, cleaning, and cooking. No personal hands-on care yet. She goes to the grocery for me.

It is through Home Instead that we have been getting our private care for my mom. They have been very helpful. When we started out, it was kind of a struggle to get us the service that we needed. We kept adding on. Originally, we had only wanted somebody for three evenings a week from 4:00 to 8:00, and then my sister and I were going to spend overnight with her, but that got to be too much for my sister and I, and then we ordered some overnight help. This girl has become like a family member. We call her my mother's third daughter. She's wonderful. So, we're very pleased. They've been very helpful; they have offered assistance. They have a nurse on staff who has reached out, and they offer other services than what we're using that we haven't needed to use, but it's there if we do need it, so we're very pleased with them. They help my mom with meals when they're here. They help her with medicine. We have to put it out for them. We have it monitored, and we just tell them when she takes it. They assist her to the bathroom, and they help her when she gets up at night. Right now, we have a female catheter system where she doesn't have to get out of bed at night, but she wakes up frequently wanting a drink of water or some lip balm on her lips because her mouth gets dry, so they do that. They'll give her Tylenol when she needs it. Like her knees bother her, and we have Aspercreme for her knees, and they will do that. They clean up, they make the bed, and they'll do dishes. Basically, when they're here, they do whatever my sister and I would do if we were here. At the beginning, we had three or four different people, and it was confusing to my mother with her dementia and everything. Now that we have two steady people who are here all the time, and maybe they'll be once or twice where they're not able to and they'll send somebody else, but we've had good experience with all but a couple of the aides. They know who we liked and who we weren't that fond of. Overall, we're very impressed. Anytime we have an issue, like a special occasion where we need help, we call, and they jump through hoops for us to get somebody for us.

I was grateful and impressed for how quickly the agency responded to my urgent request. I was in a bind and they reacted quickly. The caregivers arrived on time, were very kind and caring. They sat bedside and kept excellent notes, which they shared with the hospice nurses. The caregivers didn't wait to be told what to do, they were proactive. The caregivers took their job seriously - truly - it's their calling not just a job. Rhonda and Josie were especially wonderful - showing such respect and care. The staff was also excellent - keeping in touch with me as well. I highly recommend this agency for true peace of mind.

HomeInstead provided expert care for my parents. My father has many health issues and my mom has dementia. My sisters and I work full time so we are unable to care for them in the day. Our caregiver came five days a week to prepare meals help with laundry and light housework and care for the needs of my mom. She helped with bathing and dressing. She also drove her to adult daycare. She took my father to doctor appointments. She was very reliable and always arrived on time. On the few occasions she was not able to come we always had advance notice. She treated both of my parents with respect, kindness and compassion. If she had a concern she would contact me immediately. Anytime I contacted the agency I had an immediate response regardless of the time of day. On the occasions when my father was hospitalized-a staff member visited him. Their entire staff was professional and caring. I would highly recommend their agency.

Home Instead has an excellent program that matches the client with the caregiver. Our caregiver Vicki is so kind , caring and helpful with my father who can be very challenging. She keeps hm in good spirits with her conversations, cooks meals for him, keeps his room and laundry clean and tidy which is no small task. I am so grateful to Vicki and home Instead for providing such a high quality of care. Vicki has become like family to us and we think she is the best!

I am using Home Instead for my father to supplement the care at an Assisted Living Facility. The aides are excellent, and my father has thrived with the one-on-one care. Service is very responsive. They arranged 24x7 care within 6 hours of my first call.

My parents have been clients of Home Instead-North Olmsted since June 2015. Even though some days can be quite busy with appointments, phone calls, therapy, visitors, etc., the Home Instead caregivers always make sure that my parents are CARED FOR. I can confidently recommend Home Instead to provide care for your loved one.
