As the designated Advocate of a dear friend of 69 years, recently placed in a Senior Living facility, I was so fortunate to discover Home Instead sitters and enlist their services in caring for my dear friend. Over the last few months I have had the opportunity to observe their 24/7 hour care on many occasions. Their dedication and compassionate care has afforded me a complete sense of trust and total assurance that my friend is in the very best hands possible. I especially want to praise our regular day sitter, Earlene! Never have I known a person with her level of compassion and care!! Having many, many opportunities to observe and interact with Earlene has given me the ultimate sense of trust and peace of mind so needed. She is not simply doing her job, but demonstrates daily that being a caring sitter is her true “calling”. She not only provides superior care for my friend, but goes so far above and beyond basic care. Together, I feel that we work as a team. She always has time to talk with me and keeps me informed of any concerns she has for my friend and values any input of my long association with her. Her eagerness to provide activities to engage and enhance my friends daily life is simply amazing!! Through Earlene I am able to keep my friend’s family informed at all times. I am so truly thankful for all of the Home Instead sitters, but most importantly, for “Our Angel” Earlene!!!

Home Instead has been servicing our family many times over the last three years. They are always there to help, even on a moments notice. My husband thinks the world of LeeAnn. They get along so well and he looks forward to the days she is with him. All of our care givers have gone above and beyond when caring for my husband. Thank you Home Instead for your professional and kind staff.

Home Instead provides care for my husband while I’m working. Earlene helps get him up in the morning, fixes him breakfast, gets him ready for the day, ensures he does his PT exercises, and attends to his needs. She is not just a godsend to my husband, she has made a huge impact on my life. She cleans the house, helps with laundry and anything else to make my life easier! She is a true blessing to our family

Home Instead provides two caregivers (Sherry and Rose) who help my father, who has Parkinson's Disease. Both women have been extremely kind and competent: Not only have they kept my father company, but they have also provided excellent care (including light housekeeping). I would strongly recommend that others avail themselves of Home Instead' services!

We have Home Instead to help my mom and dad as they battle some health and mobility issues. They have been a game changer for our family! Sundae, Angela, and JoAnne (our caregiver) are extremely professional, highly compassionate, and have made our parents feel special. More importantly, they’ve allowed our dad to have more freedom and our mom is thriving with Joanne’s attention and care. We are so thankful to be partnered with them and have them as part of our family. We Highly recommend these folks to those struggling with the demands of aging parents. They have brought quality of life and calmness to a chaotic season.

Using Home Instead has been a life saver for us. Our caregiver Trisha is dependable and always willing to assist in anyway she can. She is genuinely concerned for the well being of our loved one. She always finds ways to engage and assist with exercise in a fun way. Trisha shows compassion and kindness. Her services allowed us to return home after rehab. Trisha Gives us confidence that our loved one is well cared for and her needs are addressed.

I can tell you that I would 100% recommend HomeInStead for anyone needing Senior Care. They are a very caring company and have a great staff and caregivers. Our caregiver’s name is Maya and we cannot say enough good about her. We do not know what we would do without her. She is a caregiver to my husband. It was truly a blessing for the company to match her up with us. She is just what we needed.

My first home care experience. I’m very pleased with the communication through the manager, nurse Angela & everyone I’ve talked to on the phone. Evelyn has arrived promptly. She timed what I need to do during her daily hours here. She helps with my medicine ointment on my back & hands, fixes my meals, cleans up & is so pleasant to be around. She surpasses my expectations!

Home Instead has provided care to my mother for several years. As her illness changed, we have been able work with HI so that they provide the level of care that suits our needs. The caregivers have given our family the peace of mind of knowing that she is safe and loved and cared for when we can’t be there. They are on time, friendly, and happy to accommodate.

Home Instead provided excellent care for our dear Mother/ Grandmother Margie D. under a program paid for by the VA for surviving spouses of Veterans. Home Instead connected our family to Veterans Care Coordination who works directly with Home Instead of Gastonia. We were successful with applying for the benefit and being approved in an expedited fashion. This benefit was a huge help to our family before our Grandmother passed with providing 1:1 care as well as a much needed respite breaks each week to the family. Thank you Home Instead of Gastonia!

About a month ago after my dad suffered a stroke in Asheville we were forced to put him in rehab and bring my mom to our home. Not knowing what we were going to do with her during this chaotic covid-19 pandemic a friend put me in touch with Sundae (my angel) on a Friday afternoon and she and the nurse met with me and my mom on Monday and on Tuesday we had a caregiver in place. Unfortunately the first caregiver was not the right fit so Sundae went back to work and found our current caregiver Loretta (my mother’s angel) within two days. I honestly don’t know what we would do without Sundae, Loretta and everyone at Home Instead. They are the most caring, dependable, trustworthy people we could have ever asked for....mom says when she goes back to Asheville we are taking Loretta Thanks to everyone at Home Instead for everything you have done for us!

We are so happy to have trusting and caring people care for my MIL. We live 3 hours away, so Emily is our eyes on what's happening and Jennifer provides great communication and support/information to us. My MIL had to go the ER and Emily stayed with her through the admitting her (much longer than she was scheduled) and Jennifer kept us informed. Then at discharge, Jennifer picked up my MIL and got her meds. We could not be happier with extraordinary professionalism & care they provide.

It's not often I write reviews. However, in this case, I truly feel it's my responsibility. Home Instead Senior Care in Gastonia, NC has been providing incredible service to my Mother. The things that make this possible are Home Instead's 1:1 relationship with the patient and family. The other critical component of that is 1:1 decisions too. Mom's plan is specifically outlined for her and what makes her most comfortable during uncomfortable health conditions. There is absolutely no way our family could provide the service Home Instead Senior Care does. In essence, they've become our extended family. I think that's the highest compliment a home-healthcare company can receive. It certainly is in our case.

I currently have care givers 5 days per week from 9 AM to 5 Pm which allows me to do the necessary errands to manage our home life. My wife cannot be left alone. The staff is always on time and support us in every way needed. If we need to change the schedule it is done in a friendly and supportive manner. All contacts with the office staff are friendly and professional. I would recommend Home instead with no reservations whatsoever.

All the carers currently looking after my mother are great. Many are exceptional. They are very competent, very attentive to Mom and have very friendly, charming manners. I could write an essay about certain caregivers and how wonderful they are with Mom! They go out of their way to keep her happy and feeling safe and secure. There is a lot of laughing and giggling in this home, thanks in large part to the caregivers from Home Instead! I'm only writing here about 1% of how much I think of these ladies. My interactions with the Home Instead office staff, people on-call etc. have been positive, for the most part. When CG's have called out and been unable to come for their shifts, the on-call representative has always gone above and beyond to find a replacement. They have always communicated information in a friendly manner, even though they received some call-outs at odd hours!
