Home Instead supported my brother's care for some months during 2024 and at the start of 2025. They offer a very dedicated and professional service. The managers are extremely knowledgeable about different presentations of illness and conditions. Every service and interaction was carried out with sensitivity
and thoughtfulness.


Home Instead helped with the cleaning and accompanied my brother to hospital appointments. Nothing was too much trouble. The standard of the cleaning was very high and the staff formed a sincere and encouraging rapport with my brother, which he appreciated and we do too.


The beauty of Home Instead is the depth of knowledge and the flexibility. They can start off with cleaning and progress to offering a care service also. They are able to tailor their package to the precise needs of the service user.


One incident which sticks in my mind is that when my brother went to hospital, accompanied by a Home Instead carer, she stayed until he was admitted.


Reply from Sonia Thapa, Director at Home Instead (Lewisham & Southwark)

Thank you for your kind words and for sharing your experience. It means so much to us to know that we were able to support your brother in a way that made a real difference. We understand how important it is to provide not just practical help, but also kindness and reassurance, so hearing that our carers formed a genuine connection with your brother is truly heartwarming. We're especially touched that you remember the moment when our care professional stayed with him at the hospital-it's these little things that matter most. Your feedback is really appreciated, and we're so glad we could be there for your family.

We have been using Home Instead for 8 months. Mum's carepro has been fantastic from day 1. She provides Mum with companionship and reassurance above all and also restored Mum's confidence in going for short walks and outings. Our carepro has been totally reliable and professional at all times. Together
with her line manager, our carepro has been able to adapt to Mum's changing needs.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Home Care Provider is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows: 3 points for the first Positive Review, 2 points in total for each of the next 9 Positive Reviews (1st = 3, 2nd = 0.5, 3rd = 0.5, 4th = 0.25, 5th = 0.25, 6th = 0.1, 7th = 0.1, 8th = 0.1, 9th = 0.1, 10th = 0.1)

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Home Instead (Lewisham & Southwark) is based on 2 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 = 3.5

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Home Care Provider does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
