It was difficult to admit that the care my mother-in-law needed was more than I could provide. I hesitantly reached out to Home Instead for information and Liisa compassionately listened to my story and took the time to understand what I needed to continue providing at-home care for my family member. Liisa connected me with Tanya, who has been nothing short of AMAZING. Tanya not only represents herself and Home Instead admirably, but represents the entire concept of at-home care well, giving me the peace of mind that I’m doing everything I can for my loved one. Tanya is the angel I didn’t know I needed but I’m grateful that I found.

I used Home Instead following a shoulder surgery when I wasn’t able to fully care for myself. The most often care professional who came out to my house, Elaine, always went above and beyond to make sure all my needs were met. She is super. I would definitely use Home Instead again in the future if the need arises.

After our 100 year old father fell, we needed help to keep up with his needs. Home Instead became our provider and they delivered. Alyssa came regularly and proved to be competent, caring and kind. She brought brightness and positive energy every day. Our confidence in Alyssa grew quickly and she definitely made our lives easier. Her relationship with Dad was warm and thoughtful. Carline came to us as an experienced care giver from Home Instead and quickly became a favorite of Dad’s. She developed a genuine rapport that was heartfelt and lovely to see. Carline made Dad feel comfortable in an easy going way, always attentive but never smothering. We knew Dad was in good hands. Dad recently passed and we want to express our gratitude for not only the services provided but for the people who demonstrated compassion and care in a very genuine and heart warming way. We will miss seeing Alyssa and Carline, thank you so much from our entire family

Home Instead in Norwood provided exceptional care for my father, allowing him to remain in his own home — so important to his independence and happiness. Liisa and Dawn in the office coordinated care beautifully, and his caregivers — Taikai, Antoinette, Sharon, and Diane — were outstanding. They offered not only skilled support but also genuine kindness and companionship. Our family had peace of mind knowing he was safe, comfortable, and cared for by such a dedicated team.

- Missed medications, meals, or appointments
- Challenges with bathing, dressing, or mobility
- Increased forgetfulness or signs of memory loss

- Stacks of unopened mail or unpaid bills

Still unsure? A care consultation is a great place to start. We'll listen, answer your questions, and help you explore your options—with no pressure or obligation.
Here's when home care might be the right step:
- You're juggling caregiving with work, family, and your own well-being
- Your loved one's needs are growing beyond what you can manage alone
- You're noticing signs of burnout, frustration, or fatigue
- You want a consistent, trusted partner to rely on
Home Instead Care Pros provide support that fits your routine—not the other way around. Whether it's meal prep, a walk, or help getting to appointments, our care is designed to enhance—not replace—your role.
You don't have to wait for a crisis. Most families who start care with us say they wish they had done it sooner.
There's no one-size-fits-all answer—but if your loved one wants to stay in their own home, in-home care can be the most personal, flexible, and reassuring option.
In-home care vs. assisted living
Assisted living can be great for those who want a communal setting and are ready to relocate. But if your loved one wants to stay at home, in-home care offers:
- One-on-one attention in familiar surroundings
- A flexible schedule that fits your lifestyle
- Support with meals, mobility, personal care, and companionship
- Help from Care Pros who get to know your loved one—building trust and routine
In-home care vs. hiring a private caregiver
Hiring an independent caregiver can seem less expensive—but it comes with risk. As the employer, you'd be responsible for payroll, insurance, and coverage when they can't show up.
With Home Instead, we handle everything:
- Professional hiring, training, and supervision
- Background checks, insurance, and 24/7 backup support
- Personalized matches and no long-term contracts
In-home care is all about helping your loved one stay independent, comfortable, and safe—right in the place they know and love. From simple companionship to specialized dementia support, our Care Pros are here to help make life easier.
Here's how it works with Home Instead Norwood:

- We build your care team. We'll match your loved one with a trained, compassionate Care Pro based on skills, schedule, and compatibility. Many of our Care Pros speak Spanish and bring years of experience supporting chronic conditions or memory care.
- We start care quickly. We can often begin care within 48 hours. Services may include bathing, dressing, transportation, meal prep, medication reminders, and more. We also offer 24-hour care, dementia support, and hospice assistance.

It's care on your terms. Ready to get started?
At Home Instead, we don't just send a caregiver—we introduce you to a Care Pro. It's a title we take seriously, because our team members bring more than just help—they bring heart, consistency, and respect for the life your loved one has built.
Here's what sets our Norwood Care Pros apart:
- They're trained and trustworthy. Each Care Pro goes through a thorough background check, drug screening, and extensive training—including how to support Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and chronic health conditions.
- They're employees—not contractors. That means we handle taxes, scheduling, and supervision. We also provide liability insurance and workers' comp, so you're fully protected.
- They're matched with care. We take time to match each Care Pro based on your loved one's personality, preferences, and needs. It's not just about filling a shift—it's about building a relationship.
- They show up, and we've got your back. If your regular Care Pro can't make it, we'll send a qualified backup—no scrambling on your end. Our 24/7 support line means help is always a call away.
