Hi I'm Stephen and I joined Home Instead as Care Coordinator, as I fancied a career change from a telecare company. My role at Home Instead is to schedule the Care Professionals across our group and match them with our clients.

Received excellent service. Staff always helpful, punctual and pleasant. All queries dealt with promptly and efficiently. Would highly recommend Home Instead to anyone considering help in the home for elderly relatives.

From our first contact, on a January Sunday, when we needed to set up urgent care for my 98 year old Father, Home Instead have provided a thoroughly efficient, responsive, sensitive and supportive service at every level.
My Father had been reluctant to accept support at home, but in 6 months of getting

to know the friendly and supportive team around him, now admits that he couldn’t manage without them. Not only do the Care Pros look after his daily physical needs, but, with family at a distance, they provide valuable and friendly social contact and Dad enjoys chatting and joking with them.

From first contact helpful, organized and Professional company at all levels. The App meant I could easily access Dads daily records and be reassured that he’d eaten and taken his medication, and his mood had been assessed, a must have for me as I live overseas. The Carers are wonderful, friendly,

kind and always cheerful. Dad said he felt they really cared about him and they brought joy to his life every morning.
I would recommend them to anyone looking for social care at home. Brilliant!
