I am really pleased with Home Instead and how they look after my aunt and uncle. Professional, friendly, easy to communicate with and flexible. The online portal is extremely useful and allows me to monitor the progress of care provision in real time.
I highly recommend Home Instead Wembley for your peace of mind when looking after your loved ones.
Andrew
I found the whole experience a dream. All staff we met were very professional.
The carer mum had was kind and helpful, mum really liked her (this was mum’s first experience of non family carers). I felt extremely comfortable leaving mum in their care.
Sandra
This was my first time looking for care for my Dad and the team at Home Instead have made the process so much easier than I would have expected. All the carers involved with caring for my father are kind, friendly and diligent in the care they’re providing. The team in the office have also been fantastic and helped me out when I needed extra care provided at extremely short notice. I can’t recommend them enough.
Michael
My Mum has been receiving care for several months now. The Carers are extremely reliable, very friendly, always taking the time to make sure Mum is ok. All the Carers have taken the time to get to know Mum and are becoming good friends. Carers are very happy to do whatever Mum needs, happy to make a light meal, cleaning, watering plants. Communication with the office is very good with no request being too much trouble. The office always keeps me informed and are happy to accommodate any changes to routine due to hospital appointments etc. The relationship between the Carers, Mum and the office is very quickly becoming indespensible.

I have been using Home Instead (Wembley) since October 2019 to care for my mum, who is now in the latter stages of dementia. Their level of care and service is excellent. They are very responsive to my mum’s needs as her condition has deteriorated. I would hate to think how we could have coped during lockdown without Home Instead. It is extremely reassuring to know that I can depend on the carers to tend to my mum’s needs on a daily basis. The peace of mind that this gives me cannot be underestimated. Their online portal is really useful as it allows me to keep updated on how Mum is doing on a daily basis. The admin staff are all very friendly and manage Mum’s prescriptions for her medications. Overall, I would happily recommend Home Instead for care.
Paul
Good old fashioned service that meets all of our requirements, this is how I would describe what I’ve seen from Home Instead (Wembley). In February they have assisted my Mum in settling back into her home after a three month stay away in a care home whilst improving her mobility. The service manager, with over 40 years of experience and her team are all focused on delivering Mum what she requires on that day, not just ticking boxes but actually caring for her needs whether this is a cleaning or feeding task or simply pouring Mum her favourite tipple just how she likes it.
I cannot express enough just how happy and safe I feel for my Mum knowing that she is under their care.
Thank all of you at Home Instead (Wembley) you’re first class.
Mark
We have just started to use Home Instead (Wembley) to care for my parents and so far we have had an excellent experience. The care manager who visited us for the initial assessment was warm and caring and extremely knowledgeable – she put us all at ease and made us feel very confident in going ahead with the care. The carer who visits is also great – my mother finds her to be kind and thoughtful, she always thinks of extra things she can do to help, and she is lovely company too. All of the admin side has been handled efficiently too. Based on our experience so far, highly recommended.
Judith
I contacted Home Instead to provide support for my mum who is physically able but has dementia and lives with her partner.
I was concerned that my mum, who does not feel that she needs any help would not accept the care and support. This has not been the case. The carer built a relationship with my mum over a very short time. She’s shown great flexibility from taking my mum out for coffee or to have a look around the shops to cleaning and helping with personal care.
The whole process from my initial enquiry has been smooth and professional. The online visit reports are useful and reassuring. I would highly recommend Home Instead Wembley.
Jo
I can genuinely not speak highly enough of the managers and carers at the Wembley Home Instead branch. From my first contact in a system I was very unsure of I was shown compassion and understanding…this was immediately reinforced on meeting the managers who took the time to get to know my dad and me and discuss his care needs. Sensitive and kind professionalism would be my description. My dad absolutely adores (and that is no exaggeration) the carer he has been matched with, she again is beyond kind and so gentle and supportive of my dad. The notes of the time spent with my dad are so reassuring and a great feature of the service.
Lydia
During what has been a very difficult year for everyone, the team at Home Instead Wembley have delivered excellent care and companionship for both my mother and father.
Unfortunately, both had falls and broke their hips (not at the same time I hasten to add!) The care and support received was exceptional, not just the carers but backed up from the management team making sure we had care on site in every eventuality especially when my father briefly came out of hospital, Home Instead stepped up and helped us provide palliative care when it was urgently needed.
To conclude the care received has always been reliable, caring and most importantly the amazing carers have always treated my parents with dignity and compassion and consequently, my mother always looks forward to their visits. It is a great comfort to my wife and I to know that she is being looked after in such a kind and caring way and we would have no hesitation in recommending Home Instead for care.

This unique combination of community-focused local offices and the resources of a national network enables us to provide personalised, relationship-led care while leading research and innovation that is transforming the experience of aging. Our services include companionship care, personal care, specialist care (including dementia, palliative, and Parkinson’s), and live-in care.
Search here if you cannot see your town or postcode - What local support is available?
Ensuring reliable live-in care means having robust support ready to handle any changes or emergencies. It’s important to ask how a provider manages carers schedules, especially if adjustments are needed or if a carer is unavailable.
At Home Instead we maintain a comprehensive local team that coordinates alternative arrangements in situations such as if the Care Professional is ill, without disrupting care continuity – ensuring your loved one always receives the attention they need.
- Are your carers employed or are they self-employed?
There are broadly two types of live-in care providers: self-employed carers and professional care companies. Self-employed carers typically offer flexibility and may cost less, but they often lack regulation, comprehensive training, and insurance, which can impact the quality and reliability of care.
Professional care companies, like Home Instead, directly employ Care Professionals who are rigorously trained and fully background-checked and insured. These employees are covered under the company’s policies, including national insurance and payroll, ensuring a secure, and high-standard care environment.
- What qualifications do your carers have?
Training and qualifications are vital in ensuring live-in carers deliver high-quality care. It’s a good idea to ask about the providers training levels and certifications.
Home Instead’s Care Professionals receive comprehensive training in areas such as mobility support, dementia and Parkinson’s care, catheter management, and end of life support. Our commitment to ongoing professional development ensures they are well-prepared to provide compassionate and effective care across various scenarios.
- How do you match caregivers with clients?
Compatibility between a live-in carer and client can greatly influence the quality of care. It’s beneficial to enquire about the matching process and how a provider ensures that the caregiver’s personality and skills align with the client’s needs and preferences.
At Home Instead, we carefully, match clients with one or more Care Professionals based on shared interests and care requirements to foster a comfortable and supportive relationship.
- How does your service ensure care continuity during emergencies or caregiver changes?
Continuity of care is essential, especially in emergencies or when regular live-in carers are unavailable. Ask your care provider how they handle such situations.
Home Instead has protocols in place to ensure that care continues seamlessly, with trained Care Professionals ready to step on so that your loved one’s needs are always met without interruption.
- What is live-in care?
Live-in care means a trained, professional carer will live with you in your home in order to provide the care you need on a regular basis, and support your specific needs. This is often a preferable alternative to a care home or nursing home, and it allows older people to remain living in their own home alongside a constant companion who can assist with things like personal care, specialist medical care, cooking, housework, and more.
Discover More - How much does live-in care cost?
Every live-in care package is unique to the individual client, so the best way to gauge how much this will cost you is to get in touch to discuss your loved ones needs. As a rough guide to cost, live-in care through an agency often ranges from around £1,350 to £2,000 per week in the UK, depending on their needs and other factors mentioned in our guide on cost linked below.
Discover More - How many hours does the Care Professional work?
Live-in care is not the same as 24-hour care. A Care Professional will typically work an 8 to 10 hour day. Those hours will be discussed in your initial assessment and tailored to suit the needs of the person receiving care. A live-in Care Professional is of course on hand in case of emergencies, but it is not generally expected that they will provide ongoing night care. The Care Professional also needs to have breaks throughout the day, and other Care Professionals may visit the home if a wrap-around care service is offered, giving the main care provider their needed breaks without any interruption in support.
- What will a live-in Care Professional require?
A live-in Care Professional must have their own bedroom for personal space. It is also typically expected that the home has an internet connection. Arrangements for food will be discussed in your consultation, but the Care Professional typically receives a weekly food allowance to purchase food for themselves. Live-in Care Professionals may cook and eat with their clients, or they may decide to do this separately, depending on the dietary requirements and personal preferences of everyone involved.
- What are the benefits of live-in care at home?
Live-in care at home empowers the elderly to maintain their independence, dignity, and a sense of control over their lives, while still receiving dedicated, comprehensive support. By far the main benefit is that live-in care allows care recipients to remain in the comfort and familiarity of their own home, which can significantly enhance emotional well-being and quality of life. This form of care is highly personalised, adapting to the specific needs and routines of the individual, ensuring tailored support for daily activities, medication management, mobility assistance, and more. The one-on-one nature of live-in care fosters a strong bond between the Care Professional and care recipient, providing companionship and reducing feelings of isolation. Staying at home eliminates the disruption and stress often associated with moving to a care facility, and even 24 hour live-in home care can also be considerably more cost-effective than residential care options, as it avoids facility fees which can often be extremely steep.
