Care Professional Awards & Recognition
At Home Instead®, our success revolves around the work of our Care Professionals – and we make sure they know it! We celebrate Care Pros year-round through: notes of appreciation, recognition in our employee newsletter, flowers, extra time off, and even impromptu office parties.
Do You Know Someone With A Caring Heart?
We all have that someone who is a natural born caregiver. If you know a friend or family member that would make an outstanding Care Pro, someone who would easily receive a standing ovation from Home Instead, please share the career opportunity - we’d love to meet them!

My name is Lorena and I moved to Crestline 7 years ago. I have 2 sons and 2 daughters with a total of 8 grandchildren. I have a mini York terrier named Charlie that I love like another son. If I am not working you can find me out and about, because I don't really like to stay home. When I do spend time with family, I love to take pictures to show everyone. My favorite tv shows are I Love Lucy, The Walking Dead, Everybody Loves Raymond and Shirley Temple classics.
Living in Crestline away from my family was hard for me in the beginning, I wanted to keep myself busy and start a new career path. I found HISC through my son who was working for them in another location at the time. I chose caregiving because I saw the love, care, and protection of the one thing I cherish most in my life, Family.

"Caregiving chose me. All the years of taking care of my parents. Wanting the best life for them in their last years, to make the process of aging easier for them and taking care of all the things they couldn't do anymore. It was all worth it at the end, when they were able to stay in their home. I want that for all my clients and love to be able to help them achieve the best quality of life possible. When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with my family on road trips, concerts, and vacations.
