My husband has dementia and Home Instead appointed a lovely “buddy” to accompany him for a walk and coffee. This has been very successful – a new “face” for him, stimulated conversation and time for me to relax.
Coral - Wife of Client
Home Instead South Lanarkshire have been supporting my mum for over two years now. As my Mum’s condition has deteriorated over that time, the support and care have increased. I must congratulate Home Instead on the quality of their staff. I really don’t know what mum would do without them. I live abroad and knowing how well the staff look after Mum is a huge relief to me.
Frank - Son of Client
I have been using the assistance provided by Home Instead for quite some time now. I am very satisfied with the help they give me and appreciate the companionship they provide, as I live alone and very often do not have much company to come and go on.
