Grateful to have additional support for my father at home. In particular, we've been so impressed with Nikkita Waldron. She recently dealt with a serious safety issue in a very caring and professional manner. So thankful for her!

I speak to Rhoda in scheduling a lot!! She is so efficient, and kind. I might want to be annoyed by me because of how much I call but she is always so gracious. I can really trust her to get right the scheduling right every time. She is an asset to Home Instead.

The staff was wonderful. Nurse came in after I had surgery, and was very helpful. They provided care people who were very nice, they helped me get around, and cleaned up the kitchen and straightened the house. I highly recommend them
