Absolutely shocking experience Absolutely shocking experience. Worked with them 3 years, a waste of 3 years, horrible coworkers, management handling and people/staff skills are brutal, constant issues with pay, would never work with this company again and would certainly advise against having loved one cared for by them!

Home Instead Care - Rip Off My elderly mother with Alzheimer's got home instead care from 16th January 2024. Unfortunately she went into hospital on 17th Feb 2024 and ended up in a nursing home so home instead had to be cancelled from that date. Whilst I cannot fault the carers that came to see mum for a total of 4 hours only per week I think the company are greedy as my mum has ended up paying £1502 for a total of 20 hours care as she had to pay an initial £200 registration fee and had to pay for 30 days after she went into hospital for no carers caring for her. Rip off company.

After training and starting work at… After training and starting work at home instead Worcester, I was not informed it would be a zero contracted hours… so as I wanted to further my career in care, I got offered a job with the NHS to work and train as a nurse associate and get a degree. I got a voice mail from the manager Karen very rudely asking what is going on, as had received a reference for me, she called me into the office and asked what it was about , when I explained I wanted to further my career in care and be a nurse associate, she snotty said “ and what is that” so I explained I’d get a degree in nursing. She said I was not a fit for home instead and would not go past my probation, which is fine by me. I said I would drop my bag of supply’s off but a family member past away, I emailed Karen explaining a family member past away and would get the bag to her the next day….. I received an email from Abby stating that I would not be getting paid for the hours I’ve worked and trained for…. I emailed back stating that By law (Employment Rights Act 1996), your employer must pay your wages on your agreed pay day, I have contacted head office through phone and email and no reply…. Avoid this care service at all cost !!!!!!!!

Compassionate, trustworthy end of life care We couldn’t have been happier with the service and care that we received. Tula in particular was a pleasure to have around at a very hard time. I would recommend Home Instead to anyone. All I ever wanted was for my Mother to pass away peacefully in her own home. This was only possible with Home Instead.

Only want your money Here are a few words I would describe this company Unsympathetic Pushy Greedy Demanding And charging extortionate prices in the process. My parent went from being able to walk to being hospitalised within 3 weeks of using this company and then they carried on charging us for the 30 days notice we had to give. Unbelievable.
