We reached out to Home Instead to see what help they could provide in caring for our Mom who has started to show signs of dementia. Traian Rusu came to the house and did a thorough assessment of our needs. We started out with 3 days a week so as to give Dad a break. Fatima was assigned to us. She is wonderful. She would keep mom company, do math puzzles with her, do up her hair. Do exersizes with her. She is so gentle with her. Fatima is pure Gold. All aspects of this process from contact to getting Fatima was fast, and smooth. Would recommend.

When we unexpectedly needed 24 hour care for my dad due to mom going into hospital, Home Instead were recommended by their retirement residence. They were extremely responsive and were able to set up care immediately. The PSW’s assigned to dad were all fabulous. They were very caring, friendly and professional, and encouraged him to join in the activities available in his home. I highly recommend Home Instead for anyone looking for support for their loved ones.

My Parents needed help and I didn’t know what to do. My Mom has Alzheimer’s and my father was bedridden. I was so fortunate to come across this company. They have wonderful care givers and I was so comforted knowing they were with my mom and dad. Bahareh was amazing! She cooked wonderful homemade meals for them and keep the house immaculate and laundry was always done. She would help with anything my parents needed. She was very kind. Ursula was also amazing! She would help my mom a lot with her Alzheimer’s through word searches and games. I appreciate these people more than I can express through this review.

I cannot thank Lavern enough for the care she has shown my mother. Lavern took such incredible care of my mother, who has advanced dementia. She went above and beyond, her kindness and genuine compassion made a huge difference in my mom’s well-being. Her patience and ability to connect with her were exceptional. I witnessed her patiently engage my mother, even when she was confused and frustrated. Lavern always knew just how to redirect her in a calming way, and she genuinely made my mother feel valued and understood. We are so grateful for her compassionate approach. I have been really impressed with the level of communication from Home Instead office. They always keep us informed about any schedule changes, and if there’s ever a shift in staff, they let us know well in advance. I always receive timely updates. I appreciate that they check in periodically to see how things are going and if there’s anything more they can do. Their attention to detail and commitment to keeping us in the loop has made all the difference in our experience.

Helpful FAQs

A late-night safety concern, difficulty with grooming or meals, a return from hospital, or a growing need for help across the day can all be signs that the current routine needs support. The first step is to understand what the person wants to preserve at home.

The Richmond Hill team is experienced in accommodating complex needs quickly, including in rural communities where transportation and healthcare access can make planning harder. Care can be shaped around practical routines, family capacity, and the person’s preferences.

The office offers flexible care outside standard work hours and includes in-person Quality Assurance visits as part of its approach. That can be especially useful when a family needs a plan that adapts as routines change.

The team can discuss personal care, memory support, 24-hour care, hospital-to-home help, specialized routines, respite, companionship, and end-of-life support. Home Instead provides non-medical care and works alongside licensed healthcare providers.

The office has experience responding quickly when a person’s safety changes unexpectedly. A rapid conversation can clarify what is needed now, what the home or residence can support, and what schedule is realistic.

Timing depends on staffing, the location, and the type of support required, but families can ask about same-day or urgent options.

A practical plan may need to account for longer travel distances, limited transportation, fewer nearby services, and family members who cannot be present at short notice. The office can discuss schedules that provide steadier local presence and clearer communication.

Care Pros offer non-medical daily support while licensed providers remain responsible for clinical decisions.
