Nichole L.
Home Instead doesn’t just provide a service—they provide peace of mind. Knowing our loved one is safe, valued, and truly cared for has been an incredible blessing. I would recommend Home Instead Senior Care without hesitation to anyone seeking trustworthy, compassionate, and exceptional care for their loved ones.

This is one of the places I researched for my Father And I think im going to go with them. Everything they offer to help was exactly what we are looking for and from other research on this company seems as though they have wonderful caregivers.
Mr. D.
A relative of mine needed assistance because she could no longer drive and was beginning to have cognitive issues. I met with the Home Instead Staff who then subsequently came out to assess the situation. I also provided them with a typical 'care agenda' of days and key items that would be helpful to do with my relative. I had them come for three 4-hour shifts each week to provide transportation and care for my relative. The caregivers that were assigned were thoroughly briefed on any issues with my relative as well as the proposed schedule. All of them were kind, caring and professional. You could see that they were genuinely concerned about approaching my relative the right way, getting my relative engaged and being supportive to the relative's needs. The caregivers would do 'little things' that were above and beyond, like check that groceries were supplied AND were also still fresh and not spoiled. They'd lookout for tripping hazards and put them in order. When going out on drives they would take different routes, make other interesting stops, do other things to vary the routine to assure that the trip was interesting and something to look forward to. Perhaps the best testament to their service is that my relative has called me several times after a Home Instead visit to express delight about the wonderful afternoon that they just had. Home Instead's scheduling personnel go out of their way to provide consistency with caregivers so that they know the routine of the person that they are assisting. If there is a change from regular personnel, any caregiver who arrives is fully briefed on the needs of the person that they are caring for. They also provide me an alert when this happens so I'm aware should there be any issues. The best thing that I can say is that there have been NO ISSUES. I'd strongly recommend using Home Instead because they take their job seriously, understand your concerns and treat their clients with personal care and respect.

I have used Home Instead twice this year 2023 and I am very pleased with the service. The home care workers were punctual and professional and very helpful. The coordinator Elizabeth worked with me to insure everything was satisfactory. It;s reassuring to know that in the future, I have a place to turn to for help. A Class Act.

Home Instead made it possible for my Dad to remain in his home versus go into a nursing home. Home Instead provided excellent care for almost 5 years for my Dad.

Here's when home care might be the right step:
- You're juggling caregiving with work, family, and your own well-being

- You're noticing signs of burnout, frustration, or fatigue
- You want a consistent, trusted partner to rely on
Home Instead Care Pros provide support that fits your routine—not the other way around. Whether it's meal prep, a walk, or help getting to appointments, our care is designed to enhance—not replace—your role.
You don't have to wait for a crisis. Most families who start care with us say they wish they had done it sooner.
There's no one-size-fits-all answer—but if your loved one wants to stay in their own home, in-home care can be the most personal, flexible, and reassuring option.
In-home care vs. assisted living
Assisted living can be great for those who want a communal setting and are ready to relocate. But if your loved one wants to stay at home, in-home care offers:
- One-on-one attention in familiar surroundings
- A flexible schedule that fits your lifestyle
- Support with meals, mobility, personal care, and companionship
- Help from Care Pros who get to know your loved one—building trust and routine
In-home care vs. hiring a private caregiver
Hiring an independent caregiver can seem less expensive—but it comes with risk. As the employer, you'd be responsible for payroll, insurance, and coverage when they can't show up.
With Home Instead, we handle everything:
- Professional hiring, training, and supervision
- Background checks, insurance, and 24/7 backup support
- Personalized matches and no long-term contracts
In-home care is all about helping your loved one stay independent, comfortable, and safe—right in the place they know and love. From simple companionship to specialized dementia support, our Care Pros are here to help make life easier.

It's care on your terms. Ready to get started?
