  Quick call back to arrange for time to meet and review requirements. Very thorough in ensuring clients and care providers are a good match based on needs of clients. Would highly recommend Home Instead to families for their loved ones during a time of need. It was so good to recover in the comfort of my own home.

  Home Instead have been providing care to my mother for about 3 years. She is currently 97. Where do I start?!? First, Rita and Greg worked to ensure the best fit for mom. As I believe with most people, there are individuals with whom you ‘click’ and others not as much. Clicking is even more important when establishing an intimate relationship. Mom’s Care Pros work Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. They attend to her personal needs I.e. assisting her in the shower and have full access to her home. A high level of comfort and trust is essential. She has two, one comes Monday and Friday and the other comes on Wednesday. Having two people is most beneficial as if one person is unable to attend it usually works out that the other person can. As mentioned, they attend to her personal needs as well as clean, do laundry and really anything else needed to have a clean and tidy home. In addition they make food such as muffins. At 97 mom has little appetite so they ensure the food they make is nutritious. Hydration is also considered and they ensure water is close by as her mobility is limited. She is taken to her nail appointments and other outings, as well, they pick up grocery items when required. This has been helpful for my sister and me. We trust them implicitly. Her mental wellness is also considered. Every visit they read and answer from a trivia book. This particular book contains Canadian history. At 97 mom has lived a lot of what is now history. This often sparks memories and stories. Their conversations are interesting and sincere. It doesn’t take too long to discover connections. I really cannot think of where they could improve. My sister and I are grateful that Home Instead have come into our lives and I know our mother feels the same. She has two more people in her life that care for her and she very much enjoys their company.

  Home Instead has been a wonderful addition to my Mom's life. Mom is 94 and recently moved to a new home. Moving can be difficult for anyone, but especially seniors, so we contacted Home Instead to provide Mom with some one-on-one companionship every day at her new place. Evenings used to be a difficult time for Mom, but now she looks forward to being with her friends from Home Instead. Mom adores them and they make her feel special. I can't recommend Home Instead highly enough.
