Home Instead

My husband, he's 71 years old and he has Dementia and Progressive Supra-nuclear Palsy. It's hard for him to move, to think and to see. It's hard for me to do it on my own. Thanks to Home Stead, he's home with me and the staff looks after my husband and me. It gives me time to grocery shopping and some time alone. The Care givers are very caring and loving. I could not do it without them.
My experience with Lindsay, Wonda and Monique has been special. They are there for me and Joe whenever I need them. I would recomend Home Instead for your love once and for yourself.

During a recent medical emergency, I contacted Home Instead to provide care for my parents aged 96 and 98. I am their closest family member (daughter) but I live 3 provinces away. From the moment I communicated the desperation of the situation to the administrative staff, they took charge and arranged for on site help within 2 days. The caregivers themselves are well trained. My Mum says they are more than willing to help with whatever they need. They provide them with personal care (including pedicure!!!), meal prep, shopping, exercise facilitation, housekeeping, laundry, and take them to appointments, just to list some of their services. They even help my Mum with her computer emails. Two days ago, the caregiver observed a developing medical concern and immediately reported this to her supervisor, who in turn called me. Because of this, "CIRCLE OF CARE," we were able to avert a potentially life threatening situation. Thank you Home Instead. I have great trust and confidence in your service during these difficult times.

After 2 years of retirement, I decided to return to the work force with Home Instead. I am so glad I did. The Barrie office staff are absolutely tremendous, they understand each employees requirements and accommodate them wonderfully. Providing quality care to the unique needs of each customer is high on the list of why I enjoy working here. I don't consider this a job....more like friends, helping friends!

My mom had Home Instead in several times to help look after my dad a few years ago and was very pleased.

My mom turned 100 this year and she still lives in her own home. What she wants most is to end her days in her own home and through the wonderful care she's been getting from the great staff at Home Instead she's managing just fine. Mom very much looks forward to the visits from the staff engaged to look after her and they keep me well informed about how she's doing which is a challenge because I live 7 hours drive away. Can't say enough good things about Home Instead and I highly recommend them.
