Mum is more than happy with the girls that visit her. She speaks of them very highly and is always happy with what they do for her. Thank you.

Thank you for the review. It has been a pleasure building Mum's confidence in receiving care, there have been some great relationships built during our time with your mum so far. The Care Pros really enjoy hearing Mum's stories and knowledge of the local area. Kind Regards, Home Instead (Hinckley, Burbage & Nuneaton).

Choosing a care provider for my dad was a daunting experience. But choosing Home Instead was the best decision I have made. The support they give is excellent. They are professional but genuinely friendly and give the best support. Management is great and introduced the carers beforehand to start building
a trusting relationship. My dad has the same regular carers at a time that suits his needs and wishes. He is given as much independence as possible. On a final note, during a medical incident, the carer stayed until help arrived and she followed all procedures. Management also followed up with a call to ensure Dad was ok.

Reply from Craig Mayes, Director at Home Instead (Hinckley, Burbage & Nuneaton)

We are so happy to hear that your experience sourcing support with us was a positive one and we hope that we made it as smooth running as possible, especially as this can be a stressful time. Your father's care professionals have built a great relationship and I know they enjoy visiting both of your parents. They are treated so well and it's very much appreciated.

The care provided has been of a very high standard. The client is comfortable and well-supported. Nothing is too much trouble and the carer takes everything in her stride. I am able to take a break without worrying and have total trust in the carer. The excellent quality of support has made it possible
for me to keep the client at home.

My mum has Alzheimer's, but remains living at home with support from family and Home Instead care.
A lovely carer comes twice a week for an hour to keep Mum company and check medication has been taken etc. - she plays snakes and ladders and dominoes with Mum, which Mum loves.
So far Home Instead have
managed to roster the same carer for Mum, which has been invaluable in keeping Mum to a familiar routine.
Communication has been excellent.

Reply from Craig Mayes, Director at Home Instead (Hinckley, Burbage & Nuneaton)

I know from feedback from your mum's care pro that they have created a wonderful bond and whatever they do, whether it's playing games or looking through your mum's photos, it is always enjoyable and your mum truly is a joy to support. Kind Regards Home Instead - Hinckley, Burbage & Nuneaton

The service provided to my father has been excellent, caring, and reliable. I appreciate the comfort the carer has brought to my dad during her work at his property. On the other hand, I feel a little let down by the office side of Home Instead. We received a standard invoice for February 2024 which
was for 4 visits when in fact only 3 were made. I emailed, and phoned (twice) and never received written confirmation that the invoice would be amended in line with reality - only a message after my second phone call. I think Home Instead should improve their communications on this subject.

Reply from Craig Mayes, Director at Home Instead (Hinckley, Burbage & Nuneaton)

Thank you for the kind words about our Care Professional, they have certainly built a wonderful bond and she speaks very highly of your Father. I'm sorry you felt the need to discuss the invoice so openly, we had acknowledged that the error was ours and given a response that we could credit off from the next invoice which it was.

I had to find a local company who could provide care support for my sister who has been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s and through the Internet found Home Instead. I have not looked back since starting last September and my sister has built an excellent rapport with her carers. I am micro-managing her life
from 400 miles away but get support when needed so no complaints from myself. Recently had a review with them to discuss the way forward and have come up with a plan involving more visits. As you can tell very happy with the service being provided and in the knowledge it can be extended as and when required.

Reply from Craig Mayes, Director at Home Instead (Hinckley, Burbage & Nuneaton)

Thank you so much for the glowing review of our care and support, it is a pleasure to support your sister. The care professionals have as much fun with her as she does with them, it's lovely to see their bond growing over the months and we are so pleased to be able to put your mind at ease from afar.

The registered care manager and the team were amazing at facilitating our needs for my mum. After reading some of the horror stories when looking for care for my mum, Home Instead promised to visit at the times we wanted, with regular carers and provided exceptional care. They delivered beyond my expectations
and I can’t thank them enough for their genuine care and support.

Thank You for a truly amazing review and for personally acknowledging our amazing care manager and our team in the office. We truly believe we are the best at what we do delivering care how you would like it, when you would like it no compromises necessary. We really enjoyed our shopping trips to the park with your mum especially the yummy cakes we picked up at a supermarket for when we got home!

I was away visiting my daughter and family in Australia for a month over Christmas period and as my husband has Alzheimer’s now, he required a daily visit for an hour, to carry out my usual care and tasks. The ladies who called carried out all the necessary care we requested and all went well. He seemed
very at ease and satisfied with things on my return and will definitely be using the same services in the future.

Absolutely amazing! Due to my Mum's quick deterioration, we only got to know them for a week but they were fantastic - two members of staff especially. Both were caring, thoughtful and above all, at all times, professional. Not only did they care brilliantly for my mum but they also cared for me too
when I was having a ‘tearful’ day. They always went above and beyond and it meant so much to us all seeing them both at my mum's funeral. I would definitely recommend Home Instead.

Joined: 2018

Having spent the first 20 years of my working life around the world running pubs, restaurants and hotels following in my father's and grandfather’s footsteps, I thought it was time I worked for myself, spend more time with my young family and give something back to the community around me.


I’d watched my grandfather live to a dignified old age by being cared for by carers who in my opinion were the most caring, reliable and generous unsung heroes of our communities. However, I knew this wasn’t the right of passage for the majority of older people in our country.


This is a generation who have given so much so that we can live the privileged lives that we do so and therefore I am determined to work alongside my team here at Home Instead to “change the face of aging” encouraging older people to continue to lead a thorough and enriching life surrounded by care, companionship and support.

Emma Wheatley

Job Title: Care Manager

Joined: 2018

I have worked in the care sector since I left school with various care providers in the Hinckley & Nuneaton area. I have always loved making a difference to the lives of people I come into contact with, whether that be the people who are accessing the care or the fantastic care teams I’ve worked with.


I started my career as a Care Assistant & Activities co-ordinator, I then worked in Mental Health services and more recently as an Assistant Manager for a Day Centre & Care Home. Whilst working in care homes it became apparent that there were many people coming to live there who were not able to continue to live in the community.


I have experience caring for both the older generation and younger people with learning disabilities, I especially enjoy working with people living with dementia, and I am proud to be a Dementia Champion. When I saw Home Instead, it was wonderful to see that a company was really addressing the needs of the clients, enabling people to stay in their homes for as long as possible.


I knew it was the company for me and I am delighted to be a part of a company which shares my values. When I am not at work, I am spending time with my Husband and my 3 daughters who certainly keep us busy!! I have lived in Hinckley for 17 years and I love the close-knit feel of the community.
