"My 90 yr old mother has received weekly bathing and household help for over a year. Olivia, at the agency, is prompt and courteous in communicating any changes. Our regular caregiver, Jessica, is always on time and has taught my mother new crafts which keeps her busy. This week, a young lady, Kailey came to fill in. Because of her youth, my first thought was to expect less. To my delight, she was thorough, polite, professional, and my mother was very comfortable with her. I thought of her as an old sole in a young person. I hope we see her again. Thank you Home Instead for the help and allowing my mother to enjoy her time at home. I highly recommend their service. "

"This organization is outstanding. Tanya is amazing the owner. Ramona and Sue and Yelena are the most compassionate and professional therapist I have ever dealt with in my life. I had a broken wrist and they have been coming to My Home twice a week. They have gotten me back to where I need to be to function in my life. I recommend this agency and these therapists and I give them five stars.⭐️ "

"I have used Cherished Companions in the past and am again using them to help me with my husband's care. Because of our past and positive experience with the agency, I immediately turned to them when it was determined that due to his weakened condition he had become a high risk for falling and returning to the hospital. Since we are still in our home and I am his primary caregiver, I needed someone to come for a few hours a day on the days I was unable to be there and on the days we have doctor appointments. I requested the same person if possible. The agency met our needs and my husband is adjusting well to having her help in his care. The office staff is understanding and easy to deal with; they have been helpful in many ways."

"Lucille and Sylvia have been so caring for my father. I have no worries that they will come on time and work hard. I looked in and saw her washing the laundry and cleaning the fridge. The office communication and flexibility has been great, too. I'm a business owner, and I can tell when a business is run well."

"I'm using Home Instead Senior Care and the provider's name is Alicia. It's been about two years and it's one day a week for three hours. The agency itself is very good. They work with me very well. If I need schedule adjustments or if they have schedule adjustments, they always communicate with me and let me know. They match me up very good with the caregiver. I've had two permanent caregivers so far and both were good. One I think is no longer with the company, but the one I have now is awesome. I get housekeeping. I get help with vacuuming my floors, cleaning my bathrooms, making my bed and things like that. No personal care. I think it's a very good company."

"Professional and caring staff. Great response to inquiries and needs. Clear assessments of needs with attention to fine detail about the patient to find aides with a good personal fit, not just a good fit for more "technical" needs. It is clear that information about my parents' physical needs and personal eccentricities requirements are documented and taken into consideration each time I call for a service. A really good experience in often very difficult circumstance. All of this makes my family very confident about my parents being in good hands. Can't tell you how helpful that is in times of great stress. Thank you!"

"I’m so happy with the care I’ve been getting from this agency. They’re always checking in, quick to help, and really kind. My caregivers help with groceries, daily tasks, and make sure I feel comfortable and supported. It’s rare to find a team that truly listens and shows up when you need them. I’d definitely recommend them to anyone looking for caring and reliable in-home support."

"I am a stroke victim in a wheelchair and In Home Angels are very nice people. They're a very nice group. I have an excellent experience with them. I was with another agency prior and cost kept on mounting and getting prohibitive. So I met Carrie she worked for the agency I used to have her for a short while and she then decided to form her own agency with her 2 other partners. My experience has been quite good with them. The people they sent to help me are all very qualified. They're very patient and nice people. I had no difficulty with any of them. I have been using them for a little over a year now and I'm quite happy with them. Everybody they sent were quite efficient and knows what they're doing. I came back from a nursing home where I ended up breaking my left leg and broke my left ankle too. So when I came back here I was on a hospital bed. Eventually I gotten myself transferred to my own bed but I still have to use a hoyer lift. They're very good about helping me in and out of bed with the hoyer lift. They help me exercise and strengthen my leg and feet. The last time I was able to walk was in December 2nd 2010. "

"Last year I hired this company to help care for my dad while he battled Alzheimer's. They stuck with us until the very end. It was a difficult time for my family. The caregiver was amazing. She was always on time, very understanding & she even attended his funeral. If I ever needed this company again I would absolutely hire them. I wish this company well."

Aging can be a difficult process, and loved ones may not always ask for help – oftentimes it’s up to their family to evaluate their need for help around the house. While no two situations are exactly alike, this checklist can help you and your loved ones determine when it’s time to start the search for a home care provider.


If you’ve determined that your loved one needs the assistance of a care provider in their home, it may be time for a difficult conversation. Handled correctly, however, this process can bring a family together and ensure that everyone’s concerns are addressed. Use this PDF as a starting point to help the conversation stay as positive and productive as possible.
