    My friend is using the transportation services for the last few years. The care givers are great and on time to take her to her appointments. Carol G. has become a good friend, and they get along great. the Fort Collins office is good to work with, communication is easy and if there is an issue that comes up they call as soon as they can and are willing to see what they can do to help.

    I have three caregivers from this agency helping with care of my 89-year-old parents. We have worked with Home Instead since May of 2020. Each of the the caregivers receives a 5 star review Our original caregiver from this agency DC - is still with us. She receives an extra commendation for grace and humor under fire. I have consistently watched her humor, patience, and ability to step in when extra needed to care for mom and dad. Also the fact that she arrives a bit early and spends time in prayer before entering the homestead appreciated. Her patience and wisdom an anchor for the rest of the team. We appreciated RV - Her passion for cooking, without me having to manage plan, or prep Her special concern for making sure that food is prepared for the coming week is appreciated by all. Also, appreciated are her capacity to help with special organizing projects - inventory pantry (no heavy lifting); and to stay focused and get a lot done in a limited time frame The latest member to the team CB - provides important male balance for the team, a generous service-oriented heart to serve in every capacity requested Gentle patience, respect and wisdom as dad sometimes questions the presence of another male in the homestead As a "doctor" daughter - I am blessed and grateful for the care provided by this agency and the amazing people they have provided to care for parents and home.

    Home Instead offers my parents personal care to assist them in getting up and ready for the day and in getting ready for bed. I cannot provide this care myself, as I live 2,000 miles away. The care manager has been super helpful, providing a detailed care plan and keeping me updated when there is a change. The staff arrives on time and are friendly as well as competent.

    It is not easy to find someone to care for the elderly, especially when there is resistance from someone that is very much in need of assistance. Home Instead was very helpful in finding someone to help my Mother with cleaning her house. The kind woman that was sent is not intimidating, friendly and efficient. Just what my Mom appreciates. Thank YOU!

    The services that Home Instead provides are a big relief for my Mother who is 81 yrs old and a huge relief for her family that is concerned. My Mom has been very resistant to having someone come into her home and help, she fears being taken advantage of. So far the experience has been positive. The caretaker is kind, gentle and responsive.

    Our caregiver comes twice a week to help my wife with whatever her needs are in the afternoons. She always arrives on time and does some light housekeeping while she is here. She also helps my wife with making greeting cards and she is very sweet and a good companion.

    I appreciate the way the office keeps me up to date on any changes in our personnel or schedules. I recently visited the main office and found a welcoming environment and wonderfully gracious people. It goes without saying the our care giving services are absolutely top notch! Caregivers are well-trained and very responsive to our needs. The caregiving is a definite respite for me as a healthy husband.

    My phone conversation with Jo A. today was very helpful, not only in getting a senior care person to take my mother to the market tomorrow, but she also took all the time I needed to discuss other concerns I have regarding who my mother may need to contact for other situations (i.e. her oxygen machine stops working) if I'm not available. Jo A. was truly listening and offered insights as to resources and other important information that should be written down for my mother. Estes Park is fortunate to have this wonderful senior care support system to help out when there is no other family close by.

    We have been using Home Instead for about four months. They come into our home and stay while I run errands. We chose it because of their location and the price. There are various helpers who are all good. I will recommend them because they are efficient and effective for the value.

    I am a past client of this provider

    Not too long ago my grandpa was a client of yours. Most every time someone came in to help him they were very kind and very professional. We had a few that would come in as if they were just expecting a paycheck and having to take care of my grandpa was something bigger then them. After my grandpa passed away the company was very empathetic and helpful during my grandma's time of need. It's as if you guys didn't just move on because the initial client had passed on. I hope that the situation doesn't happen again anytime soon, but if it does, I will look for Home Instead to assist in any home care needed.

Home Instead Care Pros strive to build meaningful connections with clients. Companions visit seniors regularly on a schedule that works best for the client. These visits offer seniors a time to enjoy meaningful conversation while engaging in a game of cards, a puzzle, time outdoors, or other activities.

    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.
