What recent reviews say

Five of six reviews report serious care failures: mistreatment during personal care, lost laundry, inadequate meals, and unresponsive staff. One reviewer praised a compassionate PSW, but the facility's overall pattern shows repeated broken promises to families, persistent safety gaps, and little meaningful follow-up on raised concerns. Families report exploring transfers due to ongoing worries about their relatives' dignity and basic needs.

Watch-outs

Home Instead

4.9(104)✓ Google-verified

Over five years, families have relied on Home Instead for in-home care that goes beyond tasks: caregivers like Lori, Ranju, Pam, and Bolade adapt as health declines, visit hospitals and nursing homes, keep detailed journals, and become trusted companions. Parents with Parkinson's, dementia, and palliative needs report that staff connect emotionally while managing medication routines, meals, and hygiene with confidence and warmth. The consistency of these relationships matters most. Reviewers praise how the office coordinates flexibility when needs shift, how caregivers notice early concerns, and how families sleep easier knowing someone professional and genuinely kind is present. Staff turnover is not mentioned; what stands out is how individual caregivers earn the phrase "I love that girl" or become the highlight of a week.
