  I'm so happy to be with home instead. I've been with them for almost a year now, and the experience has been wonderful, my Caregiver, Dulce Padilla, cooks, cleans, and most importantly, keeps me company with great conversations. I truly don't know what I would do without her. She is amazing, and her cooking is excellent. She also goes with me to appointments and grocery shopping, which makes everything so much easier. I also want to recognize Randy Menzie, one of the managers at home instead.He is a great person. He checks in regularly, takes the time to talk and laugh with us, and it's always there to help and answer any questions we have. Overall, I'm very glad we made the switch to instead the we had made a big difference in my life.

  TO: Home Instead January 20, 2026 Dear Anna, I hope this letter finds you well. I want to thank you for Barbara Zajac. She has been a godsend for Steve and I from the time she gets here in the morning until she leaves. Barbara stays very busy with work and humor doing a multitude of things from helping me out of bed, making my breakfast and doing exercises. Barbara is also a great friend to my handicapped son, we lost Steves Mom three years ago and Barbara has been able to provide comfort and a sense of security to him. Steve also looks forward to the weekly library trips. Barbara energetically always shows up with a smile on her face and a positive attitude that just gets me going in the morning and she has a great sense of humor! I hope you reward her and appreciate her. In addition, my daughter would like to add the following: We began this journey a little over a year ago and it was the best decision we made as a family. We were in unchartered territory after my mom passed away, which was further complicated by my father’s mobility issues, we knew we needed help. It didn't take long for my father and brother to bond with Barbara, she is caring and very thoughtful. I have a great deal of comfort knowing Barb is there looking after them. Now, looking back, I don’t know how we made it without her! We felt the need to express our appreciation and gratitude to someone who deserves to be acknowledged! Also, the entire staff at Home Instead has been wonderful to our family. Thank you! Jim, Steve Lewis and Kathy Pokorny

  I really enjoy working with home instead. The leadership team is wonderful but I want to give a special shoutout to Mary since I work with her closely. She has been incredibly supportive and helpful. I love her positive attitude and it’s clear she genuinely care about the people she lead. I’m glad I joined the team and happy to work under their leadership style.

  Home Instead is more than a company—it is a place where hearts, compassion, and purpose come together to care for seniors with dignity and love. They go above and beyond in every possible way to ensure their clients feel safe, valued, in the comfort of their own home.. Antoinette is a true blessing. She is sweet, loving, kind, and compassionate in a way that can be felt immediately. She listens, she understands, and she genuinely cares about both the seniors and the caregivers she supports. Along with her, the entire team of staff managers shares the same heart and dedication. They do not treat this as “just a job.” This work is a calling to them—it is part of who they are!
