"Went away for 6 days. Needed someone to watch my mother. Had a friend pt but needed more help. Found Home Instead. Visited us before I left to get details etc. Upon returning found mom in good spirits. She was very happy with her care. They did more than could ask for. Always on time etc. Kept journals. Definitely will use again. I think mom appreciated time with some women as well for a change. It's good to know while you are away your loved one is in good hands. Thanks again to all!"

"We're using Home Instead for dad. They do light housekeeping and laundry and a little bit of cooking. They sit with him when I do groceries and those kinds of things. No one's perfect, but they really do a great job. Three different people come on different days, but all of them are excellent. They understand their jobs. They are compassionate, careful, and respectful. It's working well."

"Before my mother-in-law passed away, we had in-home care for her from Home Care Helpers. We used them for less than a week. They were there for a few days before she went back to the hospital. They were trying to get her rehabilitated so that she would be able to be home and stay home and get better more so than what she was getting in the nursing home. They tried to help her gain her strength. They tried to help her with main functions of getting dressed, taking a bath, and preparing a couple of meals a day. She was comfortable with them and her husband as well. Her husband was just very pleased with the attention that they gave her. We're very pleased with them too. They were there when we needed them. They were very cooperative and very caring. They provided fast and very personalized service. "

"We have a lady from Sherrie's In-Home Care who comes in from 8 to 4, Monday through Friday and every other Saturday. She takes care of my husband who has Alzheimer's, does his showers, and anything that needs to be done in the house. She helps with the laundry, the dishes, and cleaning the bathroom. She's a blessing to me. They've been really good in trying to match the people they send out with us and they check every day to make sure that she's here. They have a nurse on call as well if we need one. So, it's worked out well for us."
