We have nothing but positive feedback for you.

Carer is absolutely fantastic and my Dad always looks forward to her visits. The positive effect her visits have on my Dad’s mental well-being is immeasurable. She always goes above and beyond, and nothing is too much trouble for her. We (and you as a company) are so lucky to have her!

The caregiving service has been truly amazing. The Caregivers provide Mum with companionship, they help with her evening meals and medication, they walk her dog and help to keep the house clean and tidy. There have been times they have gone above and beyond – driving Mum and her cat to the vet, keeping Mum safe and finding a solution when Mum locked herself out her house, and embroidering the most beautiful flower patch to cover the hole of Mum’s favourite cardigan!

Tailored Home Care in Portobello & Joppa

The difference in quality care has far-reaching benefits, as noted by our clients and their loved ones. Elizabeth, a client’s wife, shared, “What is important to me is that the carer manages to get my husband to change into gardening clothes and back again after getting him to do some work in the garden and still keep him in a good mood. I take my hat off to her!” Karen, the daughter of a client, stated, “We have been using Home Instead for our mum for four years now and have been very happy with the care she has received… My mum now has a team of 4 staff who visit so she had some support every day.” These testimonials, sourced from homecare.co.uk, attest to the exceptional care and support our team provides.
