    I hired Home Instead Senior Care in White Plains for my cousin. They offer laundry services, food and companionship, and taking him to medical facilities if needed. The caregiver also provides overall care for a 4-hour period. My cousin told me that the caregiver is very good and a very nice person.

    Home Instead Senior Care has provided services to my Grandfather for several months now and my family and I could not be happier! His caregiver goes above and beyond to meet his daily needs. I know as things progress with his conditions that Home Instead will be there for him and make any changes necessary to accommodate him. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for home care services. My family and my Grandpa couldn't be more pleased!

    Majorie R. is a very caring and diligent caregiver. She is attentive to my husband's needs. Amy also has been a great person. Office is not diligent in calling the patient when the caregiver cannot come.

    Home Instead personnel has shown compassion and professionalism every step of the way. This has enabled my mother to continue her wish in remaining in her home. As I live 200 miles away, Home Instead has given me great peace of mind knowing that my mother is being helped and looked after.

    Bernadette has been working with me for the last six months. She is the best caregiver I have ever had- intelligent, resourceful and competent. I'm hoping that she will be able to continue her excellent service to me for a long time to come. She has a combination of brains and warm heart.

This plan is reviewed regularly and adjusted to meet changing needs.
