Two caregivers, Rose O. and Connie N., are very caring, genuine, and truly tuned into my mother's particular circumstances, needs and preferences. Gail R. remains exceptional and my mother adores her.

Patti is a remarkable, thoughtful and careful young lady who is always trying to make life better for my husband and myself. Gets tasks done at home for us and get us to appointments on time. Reminds us of our meds.

Our caregiver, Sissy, is a huge help to us and a real asset to Home Instead. She can get him to do his P.T. exercises—he won't do them for me!

We appreciate the quickness (less than 24 hours) that HISC started services for my wife. The caregivers were all wonderful, especially, Kimbereitha C. Her compassion at the passing of my wife was much appreciated.

My father is dying yet he is very happy, pain free and content. In great part because of the excellent care and genuine love he receives from his Home Instead team. Isn't that what we all hope and pray for at the end of our lives and the lives of our loved ones.

The services were great. The consistency of the same caregivers coming on the weekends wasn't good. Needed more stability for my parents.

I would like to share that Home Instead Senior Care of Culpeper, VA did a remarkable job caring for my mother so she could remain in her home until she passed, which was her wish. The caregivers were very caring, dependable, knowledgeable, available, willing to learn, and kept me informed of her care. The office staff responded to my numerous calls with questions, concerns, and updates, both during office hours and after hours. I would truly recommend their care and hope that others can have the positive experience with the care of my mother as I did.

Our 2nd experience with Home Instead has been a disappointment. They are obviously taking more cases than they have help. We had 7 day help for the past month and 1/2 that was excellent, particularly the most recent girl, a CNA, who was sent to us for a 7 day work week, 4 hours per day. She has been sent to another client and no one showed up today, a holiday!! Although the office called to be certain we were willing to pay time & 1/2 for the holiday. We were given no notice that no one was scheduled to come, so today I have no help after a 20 hr. day yesterday and now a 24 hr. day today. One f their excuses, among many, was they don't want to "burn out" their helpers. However, their is obviously no concern for the main caregiver who happens to be handicapped but doing 20 hours daily 24/7 and 24 hours daily for 13 years! DO NOT RELY ON HOME INSTEAD FOR CARE!
