Our specially trained Care Professionals work closely with district nurses, GPs, and healthcare teams to manage daily needs.

With unhurried visits of at least an hour, families gain peace of mind and can focus on spending meaningful time together.

The Care Professionals and Management Team have (and continue to) support my parents and brother in a truly empathetic, caring and professional way. As I live a long way from the family home it is reassuring to know that my family are being looked after so well. The team provides companionship and personal care with timely communications.
Jude R (Daughter of Client)
The service provided by Home Instead Salford has been excellent throughout. The care and professionalism shown by the carers and the office staff has been exemplary. Any difficult issues are communicated and dealt with sensitively and with compassion. As I don’t live close by, knowing my father is well cared for by genuinely kind and understanding carers is so comforting. I can’t praise the team enough.
Christine S (Daughter of Client)
I had a meeting this morning with two of the staff at Home Instead (Salford). Care and communication are excellent as always and our meeting was dealt with professionally. We continue to be delighted with Dad’s care.
Diane S (Daughter of Client)
I can not complain about anything. My Care Professional has done everything I have asked of her. She has cleaned, she has shopped, and she has taken me to appointments. I am 96 and I find the things that I can do no longer, she does for me. If she wasn’t here to do those things, they wouldn’t get done. Without my Care Professional, it would be harder for me as I like my independence.
G.R (Client)
Homeinstead have made a massive difference to the quality of my life. The routine, consistency, professionalism, good communication and attention to detail works well for me.
D.S (Client)
I would like to thank all the Care Professionals who have visited my Dad over the last few years. Without their support and diligence, we would not have been able to keep Dad at home until his final days, as was always his wish.
Lisa (Daughter of Client)
The whole team around my family have been so supportive. Mum loved being cared for by C.G in particular- she always spoke of her so fondly and told me how thoughtful she was towards her, always treating her with kindness, dignity and respect. She also made her laugh even when Mum was at her lowest- another truly amazing Care Professional to whom I’m so very grateful for.
Jude (Daughter of Client)
J.N has been wonderful to Mum in the three years she has supported her. J.N has been with Mum since the beginning, it truly has been a successfull match. J.N has taken her time to really get to know mum, she goes above and beyond and nothing is too much trouble for her, she most certainly goes the extra mile.
Rona (Daughter of Client)
I am pleased with my Mum’s Care Professional’s. They get on really well with Mum and I can go walk the dog without worrying, as I know my Mum is in safe hands.
Rita (Daughter of Client)
M.L is one of my carers who is loyal, respectful and very caring. Without her things would not be the same, I would be less independent. When she takes me shopping I feel better as we have a laugh and get something nice from the cafe. I am glad she is my carer and I would not know what to do without her.
M.M (Client)
You have such wonderful staff who treat mum so lovely. Mum looks forward to A.Q doing her nails and she was telling me how she makes her nice meals.
Heather (Daughter of Client)
The Care Professioanal’s are wonderful and I could not be without them. S.A has been there the longest and knows Dad so well. She does everything like I would do it which means such a lot. I know he is in good hands and is being looked after.
Helen (Daughter of Client)
I would like to thank the Care Professioanls and all staff at Home Instead for the care and help
they have provided my mother, helping to get her back to herself after her illness. I would have no hesitation recommending Home Instead.
Paul (Son of Client)
Home Instead has been fabulous in setting up a care package for my mum. We thought the process was going to be quite daunting but a particular member of staff and the team made it really easy. The carers who look after my mum are brilliant and my mum is really happy with them from day one. It has really helped my mum and taken a lot of pressure off the family.
Peter H (Son of Client)
We can’t thank Home Instead (Salford) enough for taking care of our 96-year-old grandmother during the difficult lockdown period and subsequently two years following. Her direct care giver was exceptional and a real lifesaver. Their friendship and companionship is held in very high regard from both my grandmother and the whole family.
Colette H (Granddaughter of Client)
The caregivers at Home Instead have been looking after our sister for the last seven months. We got in touch with them when it was clear that she required help with daily living. Her dementia had increased to a point where she was no longer able to perform many of the tasks needed to remain on her own, including meal preparation and taking medication, but she wasn’t yet ready to move into a care situation.Since the visits started, carers have turned up, as agreed, twice a day, faithfully, and on time. All of them have been cheerful and encouraging of her, providing much-needed company as well as preparing meals, tidying up and cleaning the kitchen.We are most grateful to the caregivers; they have meant much to all of us, and we have appreciated their professionalism.

Tailored Palliative Care in Salford and Worsley
The impact of thoughtful palliative care resonates in families’ words. As shared on homecare.co.uk: “An amazing carer was with her when she ‘went to sleep’ and held her hand. I will be forever grateful to her and Home Instead for helping our family in a true hour of need.” These touching moments remind us why supporting families through this journey means so much to our team.
