Fantastic home care for my 89 year old mom. The staff is always very friendly and very caring. They are very professional in their approach. They try to be very accommodating to changing needs and respond promptly to any inquiry or concern.

Home I stead makes it possible for my Dad to stay as independent as possible in the comfort of his own home. His aide comes to his home assists with bathing, laundry, cleaning, cooking and food shopping. She provides companionship and at this time of pandemic quarantine I feel comfortable with his choice to remain at home.

Meeting Pam and Home Instead of Volusia County was nothing short of a miracle. Like many others, my need for in-home assistance for my mom happened very quickly and time was not on my side. Within two or three days, we had a weekly schedule and I had peace of mind. When the need changed, Home Instead was very accommodating. This included a PANIC call at 9:30 on a Thursday night to find additional help for Friday morning.
The caregivers are so nice and knowledgable. They helped me understand what my mom was going through and what I could expect. The only reason why we are no longer working with Home Instead is that my mom moved in with us in Orlando. I really wanted to continue working with HI in Daytona and was so sad to work with a different company. The HI in the Orlando market was okay, but they didn't have Pam. She made the world of difference to me. I highly recommend the caregivers for HI Daytona Beach.

Home Instead responded quickly and compassionately to my immediate need, providing home health aides for my 94 dad, enabling him to continue to live independently. Care givers were terrific. Ruby S. and Kim R. patiently answered all my questions, rapidly coordinating care. They hire, train and supervise all staff, unlike ‘registry’ agencies that simply match up client and publicly listed care giver, leaving the client or family member to oversee. This was critical since I live 1000 mikes away. I highly recommend them.

We're using Home Instead Senior Care Daytona Beach Volusia but I'm a little disappointed. Some of the caregivers are better than others. Most of the time they are prompt, but I have 2 caregivers fell asleep on me. I have them from 10:00 at night to 10:00 in the morning, so they put my husband to bed and they're with him through the night. Then when he wakes up in the morning, they shower and dress him, and get him breakfast. The value for the money could be better. Some aides do more than others while some just don't do enough.

Caregivers were always so kind and helpful to my mom. She felt they were friends not just caregivers. They all truly cared for her and I never had to worry because they were there.

This service was a blessing. Everyone from the office staff to the aid that came out was exceptional and went above and beyond. The emotional range of feelings a person experiences having to call upon a service to help for a loved one is beyond words but is best understood by people who have gone through a similar experience. I called upon Home Instead for my mother and will be using the service again once I transition her to my home which will be in the very near future.
I highly recommend their service!

Home Instead Senior Care has been providing care for my mom for over three years including a transition of moving from her home to an Independent Living Facility. Home Instead has been just great. We have been able to have the same Aide during this time, Traci who is very dependable has really bonded with mom and she is flexible, caring and goes out of her way to provide the best care while keeping mom as independent as possible. Mom has had to give up driving over this past year and Traci takes her to doctor's apportionment's, shopping and to her activities which has made the difficult decision to stop driving much easier for mom. The staff is professional and responsive and the the care provided has been wonderful. Truly a great company that believes in providing quality, consistent care in a professional and personal manner so you feel that you matter. . I would not hesitate to highly recommend!

My father fell and broke his hip and after many months in rehab he was able to return to his assisted living facility. Home Instead provided excellent service while he was making the adjustment to the assisted living. They are very professional and Pam M. did a great job in explaining services, making everything clear. The aides were reliable, pleasant, and eager to please. We had an excellent experience with Home Instead.

The Caregiver Home Instead provided is a very good match for my Mom. She's a happy person, Patient, Fun loving and willing to do whatever is needed for my mom that day. Beyond my expectations she cleans up and is very thorough.
I was very hesitant to ask for help - I am the sole caregiver and thought I had to do it all myself. But I don't - Home Instead Caregiver provides a break twice a week. Even more importantly, it gives my mom something to look forward to and interesting new conversations and experiences that I could not provide for her.
It was a good decision for our family.

We use Home Instead Senior Care for my mother and it provides me with peace of mind to know she has someone who can assist her as I work full time.

Our granny sitter got a job at home at the last minute and we had to come up with a daytime granny sitter for a ten day trip we were taking. My sons friend recommended home instead and gave him the number for the coordinator. They made it happen. They came to the house to meet my mother in law twice. They took notes on what we told them her routine was it went swimmingly. They were great my mother in law was so happy with them as were we. We plan on looking into it when we go home so we can take a break. She is not really an invalid but she is petrified of being alone. She was at my sons and he was with her except while he was at work and the caretakers were there during the day to keep her company, make sure she ate and took the correct pills. Will definitely use them again. Great job on the recommendation Rhonda,coordinating it Pam, and watching her Anthony and Janelle. You are all GREAT!!!!! I'd give ten stars if they were available

Home Instead Senior Care of Port Orange, Florida, cared for my elderly parents for over 5 years. There were never any issues or concerns with their care. All of the employees were professional, compassionate, and patient. My parents felt well cared for, and the caregivers became "part of the family." Living in Indiana, it wasn't always easy for family to visit. The caring people from Home Instead provided peace of mind. This company deserves 5 stars!

Our caregiver, Debra, has a great sense of humor. She is not intrusive, never loud and is always on time. She treats my wife, who has dementia, with dignity. She takes her to the fitness center. She makes large meals so we have leftovers. She makes our bed and does our laundry. She is like family to us.

I have been with Home Instead for 2 years. I am wheelchair bound so I appreciate their timeliness. They are predictable beyond words. They are very thoughtful and caring. I have had one caregiver for 2 years. I can't ask for anyone to do anything differently. It is perfect. It gives me great comfort to know everything is consistent and reliable. In my situation I need that my caregivers are very pleasant and I enjoy their company.

I enjoyed both of my caregivers. I couldn't ask for two greater girls. They are both different in their own ways. They both do everything for me and spoil me. I tell everyone I come in contact with how great Home Instead is. My neighbors tell me how great I look, I tell them that's because of the care my caregivers give me from Home Instead.

My caregiver from Home Instead does the laundry for me. She cooks delicious meals and keeps my house clean. She also helps me with my showers and gets my clothes ready for me as well. She talks to me about current events too. She even suprises me with brownies and other goodies. She is very kind and thoughtful.

I have been very pleased with the quality of care and the high level of service my loved one has received from Home Instead. My loved one lives 900 miles away from me, so I cannot be readily available for minor problems. Increasing or extending services is always easily accomplished. The agency representatives keep in regular contact with my loved one and notify me if concerns or issues arise. My loved one has enjoyed the interaction with his caregivers and is very satisfied too.
