    Part-time in-home care and transportation for my father-in-law while he was being treated for brain cancer. Jane was a pleasure to work with. She was flexible and helpful in working through the issues.

    We used Home Instead for a few months for my father in law. The customer service was outstanding. They were very quick to respond and get help into place and throughout our time using them they were EXTREMELY flexible. Jane was very responsive and very responsive. Would definitely recommend them and use them again.

    Home Instead cared for Pat, a wife, sister, mother and friend to so many. They started 3 months before her passing and they were a blessing to us all. They bathed, dressed and fed her and attended to her every needs. They became like family to all of us. Having Home Instead allowed us to be a husband, children, sisters, and family members instead of caregivers. We will be forever grateful!

    I was so thankful to have found Home Instead as a recommendation from a friend. The management was super helpful and able to accommodate our needs quickly. The caretakers were wonderful and provided my dad with all the support he needed. It gave me such peace of mind knowing that he was truly cared for. These are dedicated professionals that take great pride in their work and do their best to help others. Great company with great staff!

    We’re so grateful for the Home Instead team here in Easton MD. My mother, 96, had a bad fall and was hospitalized for a month. What a comfort it was having Home Instead there from the start with kind, caring aides to help my mother get back on her feet once she returned home. The staff worked closely with us to fine tune her needs, and then as Mom became grew stronger and more capable, we were able to taper back the care. The communication throughout has been excellent including a great client portal. Mom is down to just one shift a week, but we know that should that ever change, Home Instead will be there for us.

    Home Instead was one of the best, most professional service companies I’ve ever used. The quality of the entire company was simply incredible. Our first contact with Jane established our care needs and laid out next steps. We quickly got on a care schedule that met our unexpected, immediate need for in-home care. Every caregiver - everyone! - who came into our home was on time, professional, ready to work, and above all, compassionate and caring. The business office was prompt and accurate. We were able to easily modify the care schedule as our needs changed. The whole experience of working with Home Instead was just amazing. We are so grateful to have this company and these folks in our community.

    We had caregivers from Home Instead for the last few years to help my Mom stay in her own home as her health and abilities declined. They were wonderful. They became like part of our family. We started with just one coming 4 hours a day on weekdays and we were able to adjust to 24 hour care as mom needed more help. The coordinator Jane was great at listening to our needs and checked in with us frequently to make sure we were satisfied or to see if we needed to make changes as mom's needs changed. They gave us consistency, professionalism, and genuinely warm and friendly people to care for Mom in her home. I would highly recommend the agency and their caregivers.

    My sisters and I have been taking care of our elderly father for over six years. As time has passed, and our personal circumstances have changed, we have needed additional help. Home Instead has been a life saver. We’ve called on them throughout the past three years at different times and they are simply wonderful to work with. Our caregivers have been professional, as well as personable. My family is glad to have Home Instead as our supplemental helpers. We feel totally comfortable leaving our precious father in their care.

    We originally contacted Home Instead to assist my mother as she recovered from hip surgery in 2014. They stayed with my mom until just this past Spring when it was time to move her into a memory care residence. The care provided by Home Instead was exceptional with some of the companions turning into friends of my mom. In addition to the companionship and watchful eye, they administered medication, took my mom on errands, reported maintenance items on the house (we live out of state), and assuredly more. Never forget when I walked into her house last Fall completely unannounced and the Home Instead companion prepared the kitchen table for them to eat lunch - it looked so formal and nice - like they were having a tea party. The ownership/management was extremely responsive and great to work with. They knew my mom so well and provided unsolicited reports on areas of concern and other matters. Thank you Home Instead!!!

    Home Instead has been helping my parents for close to a decade. Each of my parents have had their own challenges but Home Instead has found caregivers to match their ever-changing needs. The caregivers have on numerous occasions gone above and beyond, which gives our family peace of mind when we are so far away. Home Instead has allowed my parents to age with dignity and help maximize their quality of life.

    Home Instead has been helping my parents for almost a decade. Each of my parents has had their individual challenges but Home Instead has adapted to their ever-changing needs. When there have been serious events, Home Instead has gone the extra mile with caregivers extending shifts and providing full coverage until family members could arrive. This reliability gives our family great comfort.

    Home Instead lacks flexibility, but otherwise, it was very good. Everything went well, but to put everything in a four-hour slot makes it a little difficult to do the things I need to do. Sometimes I need two hours, which is very difficult to find. We had two different caregivers: one was very polite and handled the whole situation very well, and the second one just wasn’t a good fit. The agency handled it very well after I told them why she wasn’t a good fit.
