Top-notch, kind and compassionate care! The caregivers take a vested interest in my mother's personal interests and are very skilled in memory care. They actively help her enjoy the crafts she has always loved doing, but can't always remember due to cognitive decline. They discovered some sorely needed home repairs within the first 2 days of being hired. They stay on top of needed household items and grocery needs, and remember all her favorite food items. They even help her care for her little dog. Today my mother is going to the beach for the first time in years. She is able to go to church again, which is very important to her. After a very poor experience with another service, I am thrilled with Home Instead. The difference in the level of care between the two services is night and day. My mother's house is tidy, her clothes are clean, and she is smiling, laughing engaging in conversation again. She is painting and knitting again. She loves having her helpers! Highly recommend this premium level service who go the extra mile to make my mother's golden years shine as brightly as possible!

Let me tell you about the dumpster fire that this company truly is.. we were excited to start utilizing Home Instead for a family member and went through everything and just before our “caregiver” was about to start something told me to do a google search on this individual. Needless to say, it was appalling. This person has been convicted not only for multiple counts of identity theft but also theft, resisting arrest and failure to appear. What the heck is going on over there? I believe in second chances but multiple accounts? Judging by what I’ve found this is merely the tip of the iceberg of this persons criminal history. We dodged a bullet and I implore all of you to do your homework before letting someone care for your loved one’s.
My question to ownership, Do you not understand the trust we are bestowing? It’s only a matter of time before your beyond negligent office or Human Resources staff creates a catastrophic situation for our families. Background checks are fairly common for employment.. I did a simple google search. It cost me nothing and took a total of 5 minutes. Are you honestly telling me the person in charge of hiring couldn’t take 5 minutes to do a simple google search? Is my family not worth 5 minutes? Blatantly being this negligent isn’t a mistake it’s a mistake it’s a choice. It’s complacency. I will not claim to understand your office culture but it’s abundantly clear that changes need to be made. I will be contacting corporate because I know this will fall on deaf ears at the local office.
We declined to utilize this company and I can’t speak for other areas but the Guilford office doesn’t have any compassion and who ever is doing the hiring is completely incompetent and I wouldn’t trust them to make an order of fries much less employ people who will be in your home caring for your family. Absolutely disgusting.

Home Instead has provided caregivers for my father for over two years. He is over 100 years old. Initially he only needed assistance a couple of days per week. More recently he has required around the clock help. Erica, who handles the scheduling of caregivers, has been extremely responsive and a pleasure to deal with. Marie has also been helpful and pleasant to interact with. The quality of the caregivers provided for my father have been outstanding...ALL have been professional and kind. Special thanks to Maria K., who has been with my father since the beginning. I would highly recommend Home Instead!
