    The professionalism, dedication and compassion of the nurses and caretakers from Home Instead made all the difference in improving the home care and quality of life for my elderly father and his wife, who suffers from Alzheimer's. The entire situation proved to be more challenging than anyone anticipated, but Home Instead bent over backwards to not only bring all resources to bear, but also help us make the difficult transition to moving them into a senior living community where higher levels of support would be available. I cannot recommend this agency enough, especially if you are supporting a family member with dementia, with which this team is very experienced and knowledgeable.

    I hired Home Instead to help my elderly aunt, who is like a second mother to me. She lives in Virginia, and I live in Texas. So I could not be with her while she recovered from hip surgery. Every step of my experience with Home Instead was easy, and the staff have been professional, responsive and caring. Within a couple of days after I called, Home Instead met with my aunt (and me over the phone) to determine her needs. We mutually determined she needed a caregiver in her house M-F for several weeks until she finished her recovery and felt confident in taking over all household tasks. After that meeting, Home Instead had a professional caregiver at her house in 2 business days. The caregiver was lovely - patient, friendly and professional. Making the decision to hire someone to come into your home (or a loved one's home) is not easy. Home Instead makes the entire process manageable and pleasant.

    Home Instead provides a companion in the house who comes twice a week for 4 hours each time. He is here to help me get around the house safely, to bring my lunch and medications at noon and to provide some social contact. I feel very safe in the house with him here. Also important is that by having a companion in the house my wife gets "time off" to go out for walks, meet with her friends, run errands and be free to leave the house without worrying about me. Any changes we need to make in this schedule have been easily handled by the agency. When my companion needs to make changes an alternate is always offered. When I have been hospitalized for a few days there has been no problem in changing/cancelling services with little previous notice. This is a very helpful, knowledgeable agency that really does provide personalized services.

    I worked with Home Instead when my mom was diagnosed with ALS. They were great with her. Now my dad has Alzheimer’s. I was very grateful to know that Home Instead Senior Care would be there to help us with our dad. All he wants is to stay in his home, and with their wonderful, caring staff, that’s going to happen. My family is extremely grateful for Home Instead.

    Outstanding service and truly compassionate care during a critical time of need. Our Care Giver treated my husband with dignity and respect. He quickly bounded with her which provided great comfort and peace of mind. I highly recommend Home Instead, care with a heart.

    There is always a representative available to discuss scheduling and other concerns. Everyone we work with at Home Instead is top-notch and shows a genuine commitment to caring for our father. It has been a huge weight off of our shoulders to know that we can count on these great caregivers.

    Have used Home Instead at different times over the past years for each of my parents. The office staff was always extremely helpful and timely. And the caregivers were wonderful. I felt very comfortable in leaving my parents in their care.

    Very impressed by the professional staff. Their employees were actually trained! Call them and ask them how they find their caregivers then ask other companies.
