After the first cancelation, they knew we had a tight timeline for the second, as I would be leaving town for a month the morning after the rescheduled appointment. Then they casually canceled that second appointment as if it were just a minor appointment, and just assumed I was okay with it. No. I already had to completely alter my day to make either appointment. I am done. Never even considering this group again, no matter what their response is at this point. Am considering canceling the service we already have with the Woodinville office because of this.

HomeWell has provided what has been, without exaggeration, the most consistently disengaged and…read moreineffective caregivers I have ever encountered. Over time, we have cycled through three caregivers and multiple management staff, all demonstrating the same troubling patterns: inattention, lack of basic caregiving skills, and a complete absence of accountability. Families should not be misled by warm introductions or polished three-ring binders filled with mission statements and promises of dedication. The reality could not be further from what is presented. Despite repeated and direct requests--both verbal and written--to management and individual caregivers to remain off their phones during shifts, caregivers remain consumed by personal phone use while my father-in-law, who has dementia, is left sitting in front of the television for hours at a time. I have personally purchased interactive games such as Connect 4, card games, and ping pong, as well as supplies for bird feeders, all with the intention of encouraging engagement and stimulation. None of these efforts have been utilized. Meaningful interaction appears to be considered "too much effort." This is especially frustrating because I know--through firsthand experience--that my father-in-law is far more mentally present and capable than the caregivers recognize. Ten rounds of Connect 4 with him is joyful, engaging, and entirely within his abilities. He is very much alive inside, and he deserves to be treated that way. On February 4, 2026, I visited to check his refrigerator and discovered expired raw eggs dated January 16, 2025, along with multiple other expired perishable items--foods that could have been served to him up to three times a week. This alone raises serious concerns about basic safety and oversight. I arrived at 1:04 p.m. By 1:08 p.m., the caregiver--who had been sitting comfortably on her phone--suddenly made urgent phone calls and left, abandoning her shift nearly an hour early despite being scheduled until 2:00 p.m. I immediately contacted management and, to date, have received no response addressing this clear dereliction of duty. This behavior is consistent with prior experiences. On an earlier occasion, I asked this same caregiver to walk with my father-in-law around the Ballard Senior Center. Instead, she ignored the request and sat on a bench until it was time to be picked up. It is not difficult to understand why she appeared uneasy when I arrived unannounced simply to check a refrigerator--basic oversight exposed ongoing neglect. While the primary legal responsibility lies with his daughter, who travels internationally for extended periods, my husband and I step in when she is away to ensure that his fundamental needs are met: bathing, shaving, walking, social interaction, and a properly stocked and safe refrigerator. Rather than welcoming this involvement, the caregiver and her manager complained to his daughter that I "micromanage" and should "back off." It is astonishing to be criticized for ensuring that a vulnerable adult is properly cared for. HomeWell charges $50 per hour for care. At that rate, families reasonably expect engagement, attentiveness, and respect for the dignity of a person with dementia--not caregivers sitting in chairs on their phones while ignoring their core responsibilities. Unfortunately, my hands are tied. I am not the legal guardian and do not have the authority to hire or dismiss caregivers. However, that limitation does not diminish my obligation to speak up when I witness neglect, safety risks, and systemic failures in care. This is not a matter of personality conflicts or unrealistic expectations. It is about accountability, basic competence, and humane treatment of a vulnerable elder who deserves far better than what HomeWell has consistently provided. I hope your loved ones are never placed in situations where their care and well-being are compromised, as we have experienced with HomeWell.

They kept sending different people every day. My mom has dementia - she needs routine and familiar faces, not a parade of strangers confusing her even more. This made her anxious and upset constantly, but apparently Home Instead doesn't give a shit about what patients actually need. Half these caregivers had zero experience and some didn't even have the required licenses to care for my mom. Are you kidding me? I'm paying you to send qualified people, not random folks off the street who don't know what they're doing. This is my mother's safety we're talking about. I called management multiple times trying to fix this mess. Talked to some woman named Needy who gave me the most fake, corporate apologies I've ever heard. No solutions, no changes, just "sorry you feel that way" bullshit while nothing got better. This company took our money and provided garbage care that made my mom's life worse. They don't care about your loved one - they just want to cash your checks and send whoever's available that day. Don't waste your time or money with Home Instead Seattle.

I was referred to With A Little Help by a friend of mine who is a hospice nurse. He actually gave me the names of three agencies, and I called them all. The first two had a corporate vibe, and sent me directly into a voicemail black hole. It was days before I heard back. When I called With A Little Help, within seconds, I was talking with Kacie, one of the owners, who was so kind and spent all of the time I needed talking with me about our situation and care needs. By the end of the phone call, we had a plan for an intake evaluation, and just a couple of days later, a new care team was in place...and just like that, the stress and worry that had been accumulating over many months lifted. This is just one example of the many, many I could share about the excellent care With A Little Help offers. They aren't a corporate-care behemoth. They are local, owner run, and some of the most caring people I've met in a long time. Kacie and Paul, the owners, worked with us to find the caregivers that are the best fit for our situation. The caregivers are highly skilled, professional, and compassionate. All of them have giant hearts.

She did receive…read moreregular visits from nurses and bath aids who told her to call any time she was having a problem and they would come over. One evening I got an urgent text from Mom saying she thought she was having a heart attack and the nurse was trying to walk her thru which meds to take on the phone but Mom was too doubled over in pain to even see her prescription bottles clearly. So I went racing over there and got on the phone with a very calm nurse who told me which meds to give my by-now-greatly-suffering mother. I asked her if anyone from hospice was coming since this appeared to be a medical emergency. Hospice is supposed to be all about comfort care, and Mom was clearly in huge discomfort, to say the least. They balked at the idea of coming in person, at least not until the "shift change." They don't want you to call 911 for a person in hospice care, but I asked if I could do that, and they said,"What do you hope the outcome of that will be?' OMG, what a stupid question! As the night progressed, I spoke to various nurses and others answering the phone at the hospice center. One of them callously told me that everyone dies eventually. I had the phone on speaker so I'm sure Mom heard that. That night we learned that hospice must be Latin for "You're on your own." Mom somehow survived that evening and passed away recently. The hospice nurse who was there at that time was empathetic, so there is that. And the bath aid and occupational therapist that Mom had were both nice. But overall a far from ideal experience.
