The 10 Best Home Care Agencies for Seniors in Derry, NH for 2025

"Excellent providers of elder care. Friendly, smart and on top of things. They are my Mom's best advocate. I know she's always OK with them around! Even after she had to go into Assisted care, we kept Home Instead on a weekly basis. Another good eye and good friend for my family!"

"Right At Home did a great job in caring for my mom. She loved her aide and overall it was a very positive experience. "

"When our parents were in need of home care we turned to A Place At Home. The company arranged to meet our parents to perform an assessment and assign a caregiver. During the assessment they listened carefully to the needs of our elderly parents and assigned a respectful and compassionate person as a caregiver. Both of our parents are in their 90’s, yet they enjoy an independent lifestyle in their home. The caregivers at A Place At Home provide help performing the activities of daily living and make it possible for our parents to continue their independent lifestyle. The caregivers at A Place At Home are polite and engaging and provide a high level of care. We are grateful that our elderly parents have the opportunity to continue to thrive while living at home. We highly recommend A Place At Home."

"Where do I start? We have been with Home Instead for 9 years. We had the same provider home care companion for the 9 years…obviously that speaks for itself. Dealing with the Chelmsford office was always smooth and we felt the kind caring support from everyone."

"We had to place my mother in an assisted living facility. We did not realize how severe her dementia was. We had to have Right at Home take care of my mother for several weeks until we could get her in a nursing home facility with a Dementia Unit. Right at Home came in every day of the week for about 18 hours a day at the assisted living facility. My mother was scared and anxious. She never could have made through those weeks without the excellent care that was provided by the Right at Home staff. My mother is doing very well now. Thank you Right at Home for helping my mother and family get through those trying times. "

"My mother gets in-home care 7 days/week. Before Right at Home we had been unable to get services either on a regular basis or sometimes at all from 3 different agencies. When you call Right at Home you immediately know you're not dealing with just any in-home care agency. Cyndie and Julie are patient and kind while also focused on providing you with assistance. Our first home care worker started with mom 5 days/week. Mom will tell you she loves when Ann comes in and above all she trusts her. This is so important when having people come into your home. When mom needed more support to continue to live independently at home I called the office and was able to increase support to 7 days/week. Each of the care givers are proficient, caring and professional. I couldn't be more appreciative of the services we've received from Right at Home, or more fortunate for the quality of care they provide. "

"I am using Home Helpers Home Care of Burlington, MA, for my parents. They put us at ease. They were able to lay out exactly what the plan could be for making sure that my mom was taken care of and the trip that I had to go on. They've been easy to work with. They've been very accommodating regarding scheduling and how quickly we needed to get things together. They've recognized our needs and have been able to put together stuff that worked for us."

"We worked with Kathy, the Director of Client Care in Lexington. She was so helpful to me and my family. She worked with to us to understand the type of care we needed for my father who had Alzheimer's/dementia. We were introduced to Patricia. We can't say enough about Patricia! My mom is so grateful for her. Patricia came to our home always with a friendly smile! She never complained and was always gracious, kind and patient! She cared for my dad so my mom can have a break. Everyone at Home Instead Lexington has been wonderful in the process. "

"We did use Home Helpers for about a month. They were great. They were very pleasant, very nice, and very willing to do anything. They helped out him getting something for snacks and helping him to drink, they read reviews and newspapers with him, and they helped him with his crafts. I would recommend them for any type of assistance you would need at home. It was a very positive experience. They made my husband very comfortable. "

"We're using MAS Home Care for my mom because we needed one that took Medicaid. Currently they do light housework once a week and hygiene stuff for three to four hours. So far everything is routine or recurring. The billing has so far been pretty automatic since we're paying through Medicaid; initially it was private pay. The caregiver who's assisting my mom is great, she is very present, and pays attention to my mom. She's considering Mom's needs, but knowledgeable enough to be able to coax her and make her comfortable enough so that she can help her without making her feel like a helpless senior."

"I am a previous Caregiver associated with Happy At Home, and I will be the first to say that Rick is one of the most courteous, friendly and professional people I have ever worked with. Always there 24/7 with a quick response to any question or problem. Should you , a family member or friend need a Caregiver, call Rick and you will be so glad and comforted that you did. Don A. Exeter, NH"

"My daughter was living in NH and was put on IV's beginning in February of this year. Her doctor recommended Critical Care Systems to oversee the administration of the medications at home. The visiting nurses had to teach her how to care for her PICC line and instructed her on her meds. She had visiting nurses at least once per week who were very thorough in their care and their instruction etc. Someone was also available by phone if necessary, 24 hrs per day. That is peace of mind at 2AM for sure! She always told me how patient, compassionate and empathetic her nurses were. I had the opportunity to go to NH and meet 2 of her nurses in March and I was very impressed! They were kind, compassionate and explained everything to me- they instructed me on what I needed to do since I was unfamiliar with it all. They never rushed us and took the time we needed to feel comfortable with everything. They even helped me by letting me take notes so I could refer to them if needed. She is no longer on IV's and has since moved from NH, but we will never the forget the compassion and kindness of the staff and nurses at Critical Care Systems! I hope they get to read this :-) and know we appreciated them. "
