I cannot say enough good things about Home Instead, who initially provided part-time caregiver services for my mother, who was experiencing heart failure and Alzheimer's. After this began, my father was diagnosed with a very fast-moving cancer, and soon lost the ability to care for himself. Home Instead quickly started providing 24-hour care for both parents, as my sister and I both live out of state. We relied on them for everything and they delivered. Their care was impeccable, and when the caregivers were not providing care directly to one of our parents they were cleaning, doing the laundry, finding photographs to put where my parents could see them, planning meals, etc. They also worked very well with the hospice nurses.
Both my parents passed away within five days of each other, and the overnight caregiver was there with me and my sister while we were on vigil, and gave us great comfort and confidence in their experience and guidance. This was the most difficult week of my life and I cannot imagine what it would have been without Home Instead's caregivers' help--both to my parents and to my sister and me. Whatever the highest ranking is, they far exceed it.
