We are Home Instead, and we provide award winning home care to older people nationwide. Back in 1994, our founders were searching for a way to keep their 89-year-old grandmother at home ‘instead’ of going into residential care. Grandma Manhart became our very first client and since then, our care expertise has led us to become the world’s largest global home care network supporting more than 100,000 older people worldwide.
At Home Instead, we believe that care is more than just a service, it’s a relationship. We understand that no two people are the same. That’s why we don’t offer off-the-shelf care packages. Instead, we take the time to get to know each individual – their needs, preferences, and personality – and build a care plan that evolves with them. Whether it’s companionship, personal care, specialist dementia support, or clinical services, our Care Professionals are trained to deliver care that’s as unique as the people they support.
We believe in consistency and connection. That’s why we match clients with Care Professionals based not just on skills, but on shared interests and values. This helps build meaningful relationships and ensures that every visit, which always lasts at least an hour, is an opportunity for genuine companionship as well as high-quality care.
