View Full Details of Home Instead (Cardiff)We have been using Home Instead Cardiff service supporting mum for just over six months. We are delighted with the service - mum enjoys the visits and her carers are greeted as friends now. They are responsive to her needs and treat her with dignity and respect. The hour visit means they have time to help with daily tasks as well as much needed companionship. The administration team are so helpful and any small issues are quickly dealt with and resolved. I live 200 miles away and although I visit regularly it is such a comfort knowing that I can have confidence in her care team. I look at the care report every day which is updated online and this communication is so helpful. Mum has dementia and other physical health issues but loves her home and wants to stay there. Having Home Instead involved in her care means we can help her to stay independent as long as possible. Thank you to all at Home Instead and a special thanks to her main carers - you are stars!
We are completely happy with the service you provide and would recommend your firm.
I find all the carers that come to me are brilliant with the helo they give me always on time, they are excellent with anything they do for me.
Home Instead is simply the best care agency I have come across. Due to our circumstances, we had to try several agencies for my elderly mother before we found out about Home Instead. With this agency, my mother feels cared for by the staff who attend to her needs as they spend every minute of the call helping and interacting with her. I'm very impressed.
Very professional, friendly and supportive service from the first approach through to the implementation of the care plan. Very responsive to the changing needs of my mother, including during an unexpected hospital stay. The care team were all flexible and responsive to requests. Inevitably there are different strengths and knowledge levels amongst the individual carers but with a willingness to learn and provide the best care, we felt my mother was in safe, secure hands and that any communication difficulties could be resolved promptly. We learnt from carers as a family and they listened to us!
Very satisfied with the help I am receiving. Very helpful carers.
Home Instead have been supporting my mum for a couple of years now. I am really pleased with the service they provide and so is my mum. I’ve met a few of the caregivers and they are always helpful and friendly. They assist Mum with anything she needs, even walking her dog if required. They are always punctual and efficient and the main thing is they are reliable. There have been times when I’ve required a couple of extra hours of support from them and this has been managed very quickly by the team, without any issues. I can highly recommend them.
I am very comfortable with the care I receive from my weekly visit. I have the same lady with time who is like one of the family.
Generally very good - a couple of problems when a carer we had asked not to be sent appeared and another when the carer was late arriving, which the company knew would be happening but I didn't know.
We have been using Home Instead’s service now for over 5 years and it’s irreplaceable for my mother's care. The caregivers are just like friends to my mum which is exactly the kind of relationship she wanted with her home help. We know that we can fully trust the caregiver to always have her best interests at heart. We now have an app that the caregivers fill in every day so that we can remotely check on her well-being as well. The office keep in good communication with me to let me know of any issues on availability and any concerns they have. We couldn’t be without this service and it means that my mum can carry on living in her own home for as long as possible.
Thank you Home Instead, you have indeed helped us as a family keep our mother at home way longer than it would otherwise have been possible. You have provided us with some truly exceptional caregivers, over the many years we've been with you. We sing their praises, their job isn't easy. Always helpful on the phone, managers and schedulers have played their part excellently.
The ladies who came to support my mother (with Alzheimer’s) were, quite simply, wonderful. Kind, patient and understanding. They are a special group of people to whom I remain very grateful. The admin team were empathetic and quick to adapt as far as possible to the changing needs of my mother. Living overseas, I often needed to pass on information or seek reassurance - both were handled quickly and efficiently.
We have been very grateful to the care and support provided by the carers as it made my father in law clean, supported and fresh. The house looked clean and organised when we were away and the carers came and supported dad to live comfortably.
First-class service. My mother loved the attention from the two ladies who visited her house twice weekly. This care practice offers a very efficient, reliable service, and I would not hesitate to recommend them. My mum actually gained more confidence during the past month and looked forward to their visits.
My mother, who is now in her late nineties, has been using Home Instead for more than ten years. To begin with, it was mainly for companionship, but now they help her get washed and dressed and get undressed for bed. The carers provide her with three meals a day, wash clothes in the washing machine, wash up, vacuum and do the shopping. Throughout the pandemic, Home Instead has provided her with the three visits without fail, although occasionally, the time has to be changed by a one-time slot (ie +/- 1 hr 15 mins) due to staff sickness. The staff are friendly and very competent and take special care of my mother. She is very happy with their services and sees them as her friends. They communicate well with each other. If there are any technical problems, the carers can contact me directly, help me diagnose the issue remotely and liaise with me as I get the problem resolved. The office staff know me well and are always very helpful and supportive if we have any challenges.
We have been using Home Instead for 18-months, and we were lucky to have the same carer throughout that time. My mum suffers with Dementia, so having the same carer was invaluable. Mum was able to build a lovely relationship with her carer and was always pleased to see her. We also used Home Instead when Dad wanted to trail an overnight stay, and the lady that came was fabulous too. Dad and I were really worried that Mum would be anxious, but Mum loved the lady that stayed, and they had fun together. So it was a very positive experience. The office team have always been friendly and helpful, and the owner was very professional on his initial visit, and it was appreciated when he popped in to see them with a card at Christmas. Sadly we have had to make the heartbreaking decision to find permanent care for Mum due to the severity of her illness and have not cancelled the care provided by Home instead. We would definitely recommend their service to others.
I cannot thank Home Instead enough for the loving care given to both my parents, since first engaging their services in 2019. The company work as a great team from the inside, out. The office staff are so very polite, helpful, thoughtful and always had time to discuss the care plan, I was never rushed. A carefully selected team of CareGivers were planned for my parents, maintaining consistency of care, enabling trust and relationships to grow. The CareGivers were all amazing, from day 1! Getting to know both my parents, never making their role obvious which is helped by them not wearing uniforms. My parents very quickly looked forward to their daily visits. Even when times were getting tougher for my parents, in particular the last few months, the CareGivers gave it their all and cared. I take my hat off to you all for being there and being amazing. To all at Home Instead, 'Thank you' you do a wonderful job.
I started using Home Instead to help my mother back in October. She needed support to keep her comfortable in her own home when family were not around to help. From the very beginning, I was impressed with the Home Instead team. They came to visit us and talk about what they could do to help, how they could select the team to fit in with my mother and how the scheme could be expanded as my mother's needs changed. When I came back from working overseas in December, I was so happy to see how my mother's quality of life had improved due to the Home Instead team and their hard work. They had helped her with getting meals, keeping the house neat and tidy and looking after herself, all without it feeling like an invasion. I have had to change the care and the administration team were more than accommodating in putting in place the extra care my mother needed, despite all the implications of the pandemic. A big thank you to the carers and the people in the Home Instead Cardiff office.
Home Instead have provided my Grandfather with exceptional care over a number of years since he was widowed, guiding him through bereavement and assisting him to live independently well into his mid-nineties. When the time finally came to move my Grandfather into residential care the whole Home Instead team could not have been more empathetic, supportive, flexible and helpful. His carers went above and beyond our expectations and I cannot speak highly enough of them; they are fantastic. The management team are similarly extremely easy to deal with, responsive and kind. I would not hesitate to recommend Home Instead to anyone looking to care for a loved one at home.
I have had experience of the service Home Instead offers with 4 different clients and I have found Home Instead deliver an excellent standard of care. The Home Instead managers (Office and on-call) are keen to tailor the care to individual needs, are responsive to feedback, are keen to find solutions. The Carers are kind, efficient and responsible.
