"We have been clients of Home Instead for 2 plus years and are so grateful for the help and assistance that we have received. This past July we got a phone call that my mother in law was not doing well and we were at the beach at the time. We immediately packed up to come home and were so fortunate that Brenda was able to reach out and get some additional help for my in-laws till we returned the same day. We were using the service 3 days a week but since July they were able to provide us with additional support 5 days a week. I cannot say enough about how fortunate we are to have Brenda and Wendy helping us They are both wonderful women who go above and beyond. They are like family to us. Thank you for employeeing such great staff."

"I immediately felt like this company truly cares for their patients after meeting Judy the representative that came out and met with my father and family. She went far beyond my expectations with her professionalism and compassion! What a gem! Thank You Home Instead Senior Care for the love and support you have shown my family in their time of need!"

"I started my search for home care for my 88 year old mother back in June. It was so overwhelming and very confusing. I found Home Instead Senior Care through a friend of mine whose parents live in Florida, and they loved their experience with Home Instead. Dreading to have to explain my situation for the 100th time, I picked up the phone and called. That is when my life and the start of my mother's changed. Stephen Lair answered the phone and saved the day. Stephen, the owner of Home Instead was so knowledgeable, reassuring and down right caring helped me through this overwhelming journey. Fast forward 4 months and my life is stress free when it comes to my mother and my mother is enjoying her caregivers that she says ""They bring me a ray of sunshine every day"". Need I say more! Thank you to Stephen and his incredible team of caring and compassionate caregivers, you have truly changed our lives. Cher""

Nerissia M, Home Instead Chapel Hill
Nerissia began her career as a nursing assistant, and later received a degree in education. In addition to caregiving, she supports Durham Public Schools as a teacher. Nerissia is CPR and First Aid certified.
“I’ve always wanted to be a nurse and love people. After losing both my parents, caregiving gave me purpose again. I enjoy being with older adults and learning from them. The appreciation they show—just a thank you—means the world to me. My favorite part is companionship: we talk, share stories, and connect. I’ve learned never to underestimate someone’s potential.”
