Unprofessional trainer and unpaid training... total rip-off They will call you for unpaid induction and unpaid training with DBS cost on yourself and knowing well there is nothing to lose for them, they'll be as rough and if needed unprofessional with you only to test if they can easily push you around when you start working or not. Will make you go through a month-long online training for no pay and can very easily tell you they are not onboarding you for whatever reason when in fact its a zero-hour contract and they know they do not have enough hours to provide. Very unpleasant experience, stay away from this company. A total rip-off. (Home Instead Swansea)

dont waste your time, Bethlehem, PA was working for a client and everything was going well. as soon as I had enough hours to get benefits I got a text message from owner that I was fired with no explanation. They told my client I quit, but that was rectified when he hired me privately and ditched home instead. They are a greedy , low life, low integrity company who treats employees like garbage and clients even worse. They also show up at unemployent hearings with lawyers and battle your unemployment claim. Go elsewhere.

Appalling standard of carer, creating risk and causing distress We were truly appalled by the standard of care and the behaviour of the carer. At the basic level, she failed to attend to water intake, leading to dehydration. She put her client at risk by undertaking an ‘outing’ which appeared to suit her social preferences, rather than the needs of her client. She drank alcohol, whilst on duty. We would NEVER use Home Instead again and we warn others to be careful about the calibre of carer that they may send

Good, caring support and new management excellent My mother is supported by Home Instead. Although she was initially reluctant to agree that she needed care, she is now very happy and looks forward to her visits. Her carers are kind and supportive, and generally keep good notes which helps me to keep an eye on what is happening with her (she has dementia so is not able to tell me much about what has happened). The relatively new management has been excellent, and I have been listened to and concerns responded to quickly

Home Instead have been a lifeline for… Home Instead have been a lifeline for us. I honestly don’t know what we would have done without them. In addition to the care they already provided we replaced the free ‘care’ provided after mum broke her hip with Home Instead as their carers are all wonderful, compassionate and efficient. The communication has been first class. Sandy and Vicky have been really helpful and Tina, Janet, Maxine, Theresa and Tracy are all lovely carers.
