The service provided to my 96-year-old Mum is second to none.
Everyone is extremely helpful, professional, caring and friendly and they go out of their way to accommodate specific requests.
My mum so enjoys and looks forward to her visits from her care provider. Knowing I can rely on Home Instead

to take Mum to hospital appointments when I‘m not available is a great help to me, knowing I can trust and rely on Mum’s care provider to support Mum in the best way possible.
Thank you so much for providing such a superb service.

Very happy with the service and care that Home Instead provide my 88-year-old mother. I don’t live near my mum so it’s very important to me that I can see how she is doing every day. The system they use allows me to remotely check how she is on each visit in real-time and gives a level of detail which

gives me peace of mind. The care pros are just as the name suggests, caring and professional.

Overall Experience

After a few hospital stays, my father needed help to live at home. It was incredibly stressful trying to find a team of people to care for Dad, who would look after him as if he were their parent and who we could trust. Fortunately my sister saw Home Instead featured on a TV show. I contacted them abs

it just felt right. Home Instead knew exactly what they were doing and more importantly, what we were talking about. Their ethos was not only to assist Dad on a day-to-day basis but to help him rehabilitate as much as possible. They helped every step of the way, often exceeding expectations. As Dad's health fluctuated so did his needs. Home Instead's care pros rose to every challenge Dad presented to them. All of them were absolutely brilliant, from the first call to the last visit. We could not have coped without their help.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Home Instead to anyone looking for assistance for themselves or a loved one.

Reply from Kiran Agrawal, Director at Home Instead (Romford, Hornchurch, Rainham & Dagenham)

Thank you so much for sharing your experience; we are so pleased it exceeded your expectations. We understand how difficult it can be when looking for care for a loved one and our aim is to make this as supportive and reassuring for families as possible. Thank you for trusting us and choosing Home Instead, it really was an honour to be able to support Dad.

Overall Experience

The team at Home Instead really are outstanding. They have provided truly person centred care to my mum, and have worked in partnership with her, me and my brothers to ensure that she received the best care and support possible. Nothing was too much. Communication was excellent and their Care Planning

app meant I was always aware of what was happening and who was supporting Mum each day.
All of the Care Pros were professional, personable, and understood how to build the right relationships to deliver the best support. They were backed up by a responsive office team who were flexible around all of Mum’s care needs. What was most impressive were their problem solving skills and approach, which meant that every challenge was overcome quickly and creatively. Another core part of their approach was to ensure that the time spent was quality time built around companionship, as a core part of the physical and practical care that they provide. I can’t recommend them enough!

My Mum until recently had been a client of Home Instead for 20 months. I would have no hesitation in recommending Home Instead to other prospective clients. The level of service throughout the company is absolutely excellent. The carers are professional, caring and kind, we were very satisfied Mum was

safe, happy and well looked after in their care.
The carers, who are genuinely lovely people, all formed a really good bond with Mum so she was always very pleased to see them. From the management through to the office staff the communications were always thorough, polite and unfailingly helpful.

I cannot rate Home Instead high enough. My mother is so happy with her care providers. They are gentle and kind, very thorough in their care, and super-efficient. Nothing gets missed and they are always on time, which is very important to an elderly person. They already feel like friends to Mum, she

looks forward to their visits very much. The office staff are great too. Completely approachable, nothing is too much trouble for them. Always reachable, which gives me reassurance and so cheery. They work so well with us as relatives to make everything a positive, comfortable experience. The company is really well organised and run. We have 100% confidence in them and couldn't be happier. Thank you Home Instead.

Overall Experience

I was so pleased I found Home Instead Romford. My dad lived with me, and I was struggling to look after him in the mornings and hold down a full-time job.
I was very hesitant in engaging a care agency coming into our own home. However, all of the carers are lovely and friendly. They took an interest

in Dad and seemed to genuinely enjoy caring for him. He enjoyed their company and accepted the care despite his insistence at the beginning that he did not need carers. This really took the pressure off of me. On arrival, they were always prepared to read his notes, so knowing of any changes to his care needs. Both the office management and administration team were extremely efficient and responsive.
I would certainly recommend Home Instead; it's a wonderful all-round service.

Overall Experience

Mum had vehemently rejected carers in the past but with, amongst other things, her Alzheimer’s getting worse we were getting desperate.
As soon as we met Mum’s two caregivers we knew we’d made the right choice. We instantly trusted them. After just two months they have become part of the family, providing

practical and emotional support to us all. They are genuine and kind and we feel we can ask them anything - for advice or for practical help. Our 95-year-old Mum is so much more focused, is talking more and enjoys their visits, even letting them help her with her personal care: up until now she wouldn’t let anyone near her. She seems generally so much happier which of course means we are too. It has changed our lives for the better and we now get more quality time with Mum.
Thank you all at Home Instead for helping us keep our lovely Mum at home. We only wish we’d have called you in earlier!

Reply from Kiran Agrawal, Director at Home Instead (Romford, Hornchurch, Rainham & Dagenham)

Thank you so much for your kind words. We love being able to support Mum. Our caregivers have formed such a lovely relationship with Mum and we are so pleased with the progress Mum has made. They have a good giggle together! We love that she enjoys the visits and it means everything to us that we are able to support both Mum and you as a family.

I cannot praise the Home Instead team highly enough. The staff have been without exception compassionate, adaptable and responsive. It has been so reassuring to know that Mum will have carers of the highest calibre visiting her, preparing a meal, helping about the house and spending time listening and

talking to her. Mum’s behaviour became challenging following dad’s death but they have remained committed to providing sensitive and caring support, the reports received following a visit are so reassuring and itemise everything that has been done and alert us to problems. Highly recommend this agency.

Overall Experience

Home Instead have a wonderful team of employees who collectively supported mum and us to a very high standard, which was always professional while also very personal. They were always willing to go the extra mile, which was particularly apparent when Mum came out of hospital last time and her needs

had changed; they were able to respond and adapt her care accordingly giving both mum and ourselves confidence.
My mum developed a wonderful rapport with the caregivers, who each brought different attributes to her care, whether this was encouraging her with walking, sharing a joke or delivering patient gentle care when she was tired and weary.
The team are a credit to the owners decent management philosophies which are reflected in their approaches to the job.
Home Instead also provided us with additional support and advice with respects to additional community care services.
I would not hesitate to recommend their services.

Overall Experience

We used Home Instead (Romford, Hornchurch & Rainham) to look after my mum. The care provided was exceptional. My mum was extremely hesitant about getting anyone in and it took a lot of encouragement from us as a family. We started with five daily visits but as mum took so well to this, we increased

to everyday. Management were very quick in getting any changes implemented. We did have some adjustments to times and appointments which required carers to take mum and again they sorted this very quickly. The ladies were great with mum, patient and very reassuring. My mum recently moved away with my sister so we no longer need care but I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend. Thanks again.

Overall Experience

After two years with another agency, we moved my aunt's care to Home Instead Romford. It has been a smooth and successful transition. My aunt is 87, has dementia and has no children. My family and I live at a distance and it is vital that we collaborate with a proactive team with excellent communication

and attention to detail. We have high expectations and Home Instead exceeds those expectations every week. The managers are extremely professional, efficient and friendly. They are always on hand if we have a concern/need advice and are quick to make sensible suggestions and recommendations. The family app, where we are able to read the real-time reports/actions from each CAREGiver, is invaluable. My aunt has a consistent core team of CAREGivers who she looks forward to seeing/spending time with and describes as being 'a lovely lot'. We really appreciate their kindness, patience and 'can-do' attitude. The client relationship and companionship are at the heart of Home Instead's comprehensive service.

The Home Instead team have provided an excellent service to my Aunt over the last few months. The carers have built a really good relationship with her in challenging circumstances and have gone above and beyond to support her. They are kind, reliable and trustworthy. The 2 managers have been helpful

Their knowledge and expertise have been invaluable. My Aunt was very initially reluctant to accept help but is now very positive. Would definitely recommend.
