Pros

If you want to significantly impact people's lives one family at a time, come enjoy flexible work hours, great training that makes you feel equipped and confident to walk into any situation, and incredible support from the staff at Home Instead. You will walk away from your shifts knowing that the excellent care you provide for clients changes lives, and the transferable people skills that you'll learn through the variety of clients will benefit you for the rest of your life. You will find countless life-giving moments with seniors through laughter and conversations, as well as benefit greatly from the unique way Home Instead is structured. I have had an absolutely phenomenal experience as an employee of Home Instead. If you want to change lives through strategies that enhance people's independence, and care deeply for people, you will fit right in at Home Instead!

Cons

Mileage is only reimbursed when you are driving the client, not the distance you may travel from client to client during the day.

Pros

Ok pay Enough hours available Great for school students or extra income

Cons

Management wont work all shifts to see what clients are like at different times of the day. Since this is a business that cares for alzheimers and dementia they should know clients change at certain times of the day and if theres a certain time of the day problems arise then why dont YOU as management work those shifts to understand that your little emails with advice doesnt suffice for the actual incidents that happen. Stay for the entire shift on every shift even if you have to rotate days to do so and learn why your caregivers cant tolerate certain clients and its many caregivers not just a handful. Learn the client that way before giving advice on how to go about handling a client and situations.
