Home Instead in Athens, Georgia is a great agency. They have been providing home visits and augmentation of assisted living care for my loved on for years. My aunt loves the caregivers and they have always found ways to help us out, even on short notice emergencies.
The Athens, GA management team understands the importance of keeping and retaining caring, smart, talented people. The love they have for their mission shines through.

Personal service and concern. I used another agency for several months with whom I had a terrible time getting answers. No one called me back, the owner never responded to my emails, I couldn’t get any other emails with which to communicate with anyone. The drivers were overbilling mileage, lying about where they were taking my mother, and when I called about it, all I got was attitude. Once they charged me for 72 miles (mom’s route was less than 5 miles) and instead of just refunding the money (all payments were by automatic bank withdrawal), they picked away at giving small credits to invoices for a couple months. Home Instead is a breath of fresh air. They bill like they say they will. They immediately “matched” a caregiver with my mom and she loved her caregiver from the start. Being the caregiver is so difficult but having an agency that has your back, no matter what arises, just can’t be replaced. Now I am confident that as my mother’s illness progresses, I have all her care needs in place and help for my mom is a phone call away. And...my stress has been reduced. I feel I have a partner in my mother’s care and it’s not just all on me anymore.

We greatly appreciate our caregiver -- she obviously cares for myMom's health and well-being. Her friendliness and helpfulness are indispensable. We are grateful to her and the office team for wonderful and cheerful service!

The Home Instead staff have been very accommodating to my father's needs. I live several hours away and had a tough time getting to him as often as he needed. He wants to stay at home as long as possible. Now I feel less stressed knowing he is not alone and is receiving help from someone who cares like I would if I were there.

I have caregivers from Home Instead now. It’s up to the agency to provide people, so if somebody can’t come, they provide somebody else. We don’t have one person. I think they are able to handle the work. So far, they are able to do it. They’ve had to find new people at the beginning of the day, but so far they have been able to bring people in, which is what we need. Maybe they need to improve on personal hygiene. They are strong and friendly. I think older people need to be able to reach the office of the caregivers on the phone because they don’t have computers or they don’t know how to communicate online, so I think it’s good to have several lines that they can call for several different reasons if they need to.
