The agency has clearly and frequently communicated with our family on changes or observation on our loved one's routines. I also appreciate tht the Home Instead caregivers can provide driveing to near by towns for relative visits or errands. The best part of Home Instead is the companion service that compliments more available medical care.

Have used them for about five years. They were good, but the last year have fallen way down. The people they send are almost less healthy then the person they are sent to help. Old, crippled, and out of shape to do basic housekeeping. Kelsey, the gal they sent yesterday could not follow simple instructions like “bring the dirty towels up from the downstairs bathroom”, much less clean the bathroom. Had to be told EVERYTHING! Did her best to sit on her ass and watch tv and talk on her phone.. I believe we will drop their services.

Mom really likes all of the women that have come over to help her. They are very kind and helpful. It has also been a helpful for me as a care giver/daughter for some rest. I highly recommend this service!

Home Instead was a blessing when an emergency situation arose with my father. The caregivers were very caring and helpful for all his needs, including out of town doctor appointments, shopping and outings for pleasure. He really enjoyed their company and looked forward to his time spent with them. I don't know what we would have done without the compassionate and caring assistance of Home Instead. They truly were a blessing to my father and to us.

The ladies from Home Instead have been wonderful to my mother. They are kind, helpful, and willing to do whatever they can. They generally get dinner on the table for her, and they spend the night because Mom has fallen in the past and feels much more secure when someone is there with her in case she has to get up during the night. She has her favorite caregivers, of course, and enjoys their company.

Great customer service in every way! My parents enjoy their Home Instead caregivers very much. As the person that coordinates the care for my parents, my questions are always handled promptly with Home Instead-Hutchinson in regard to scheduling, insurance claims, etc.

We are using Home Instead for my parents. Within a few weeks, they were able to give us a caregiver match. I think initially the caregiver does more cleaning and shopping, but I think they are making some adjustments in what they are going to have her do. My parents are pretty independent and able to plan their day, mentally. So, they are making some adjustments in what they feel is the best use of time. I think she is taking care of the home, like helping to make the bed and things like that. We are satisfied. They have a lot in common in their backgrounds. I feel like there is a lot of common interest, and she is probably about the age of their older daughter. I think it has gone pretty smoothly.
