Overall Experience

My dad had care of visitors from Home Instead for the past five months and both he and I have been really pleased with the service. He was a little reluctant at first, as I imagine many independent people are, but after just a few visits he got to enjoy the time with them and looked forward to them

coming. The management team went above and beyond to rearrange and re-organise care arrangements, often at short notice, which gave us both great peace of mind. I have no doubt that the positive experience with Home Instead definitely helped him remain independent for a few more months, as he wished. Happy to recommend.

Reply from Roger McLaughlin, Owner at Home Instead (Belfast)

We're so pleased to hear that both you and your dad were happy with our service. It's always our aim to provide flexible, supportive care, so we're glad we could offer that peace of mind. Knowing we helped him maintain his independence for a little longer means a lot to us. We truly appreciate your recommendation.

Home Instead were able to provide care for my father at very short term notice. The service and care provision have been exceptional and I would recommend them to any family looking for top-quality care for their loved ones, nothing has been too much trouble for them. Highly recommended.

Short notice service. The carer was fantastic. Office staff were great. The care provided felt like a premium service and my grandad was very happy with the Standard. Carer was very attentive and understanding of the situation. I would recommend Home Instead Belfast to everyone I know

Overall Experience

Dad required some extra help following discharge from hospital following an operation on his leg, we reached out to Home Instead to get him some help in the morning alongside a number of other private care companies. I would like to specifically call out the very high level of professionalism of the

care manager I spoke to in Home Instead and who came out to speak to dad about his needs. He was incredibly helpful, responsive and attuned to the needs of Dad and regularly kept me in the loop - open and upfront, helpful and personable in tone. The carers who came out to dad very quickly built up a strong rapport and respect with dad which went both ways - ‘nothing was ever a bother for them’ dad would say. We had a great experience with Home Instead Belfast at a very challenging time for Dad, it’s a very well run company with a caring ethos throughout in our experience.

Overall Experience

My Mum was reluctant to use this service - she was completely against it from the beginning. The carers who originally came in must have wondered what they were letting themselves in for. That quickly changed and my Mum had got into the habit of hanging up my phone calls because her friends (carers)

had arrived and she was more interested in talking to them than me! I can't thank Home Instead Belfast enough in the help they have provided over the last few months - the level of compassion, friendship and help they have given to my mother has been above and beyond. Calls if they had even the slightest concern were frequently made to me - I can't recommend highly enough.

A brilliant service! The staff were always patient, kind and caring to me and my mother. They were proactive, responding quickly and appropriately to my mother's needs in a friendly, professional manner. I will be recommending this company to anyone I know who would need some support with elderly relatives

and I won't hesitate to use them again in the future!

Overall Experience

Very pleased with the service offered by Home Instead. Professional and friendly initial assessment/discussion of care needs and then put in place the package very quickly. We have two carers coming on different days to provide visits of generally 2 hours to offer a wide range of help, support and companionship.

The carers are both excellent and extremely reliable coming at precisely the agreed time every day. Very happy with the support provided.

Having used this service since December 22, we have found it to be professional with very helpful staff and carers. To date, we have nothing but praise for all involved in caring for our family member. Special mention to the home carer whom our family member has stated is fabulous!
We cannot find

fault with any services provided to date.

My sister and I have been happy to use the services of Home Instead (Belfast) to keep our elderly mother in her own home for the last three months. The carers coming in twice a day have taken a lot of worry from us. They treated Mum with dignity and efficiency, and the office staff were always quick

to deal with any queries and were good at keeping us informed.

My family decided to look for some home help for our mum after my dad died, I phoned a few companies, but instantly knew once I spoke to Home Instead they were professional and gave us confidence that mum would be well looked after. The carer who comes to see mum is fantastic and nothing is too much

trouble, it gives us such comfort knowing that she has someone calling and they are so flexible when needed. We couldn't recommend them enough.

Overall Experience

I first heard of Home Instead a couple of years ago. I like the sound of its policies, but at the time, I was coping very well on my own and didn't even check whether it operated in Northern Ireland. Last year, I had a health scare which made me reassess my future. Conscious of my deteriorating hearing

and eyesight and problems accessing high shelves, low cupboards etc, I contacted the Belfast manager, who came and assessed my requirement. He found a carer who was ideally suited. I find the help very useful, often in unforeseen ways. Highly recommend.

The information provided was really well communicated and we had a clear understanding of the service to be provided. In fact the communication on an ongoing basis was above our expectations. All staff that we dealt with and met where helpful, courteous, professional and caring. The genetleman, who

was in charge, couldn't have been more helpful, updating when required and very caring in his approach. Our service provided overall was excellent and based on our experiences I would highly recommend.
