Overall Review of Homecare By Design

differentiator 5 reviews mention this

In-home care helps seniors stay

Residents and families describe receiving in-home help that supports daily living at home.

Several reviews describe care that allows a loved one to remain in their own home, with day-to-day support like meals, shopping, rides to appointments, and help with routines. One reviewer specifically contrasts it with not wanting a nursing home setting. Caregivers are described as showing up consistently when scheduled and providing companionship alongside practical tasks.

common 19 reviews mention this

Caregivers are described as caring

Reviews repeatedly describe caregivers as kind, friendly, and attentive to personal needs.

Across many reviews, families highlight caregivers who are compassionate, respectful, and focused on the person they are serving. People also mention communication and professionalism in day-to-day interactions, including helping with light housekeeping, meals, and other personal needs. Some reviewers add that support staff checks in periodically to confirm needs and adjustments as circumstances change.

common 2 reviews mention this

Strength and balance program

A strength and balance program is described as an engaging, low-impact workout for seniors.

Two reviews focus on a strength and balance class for adults over 60, led by specific coaches. Reviewers describe it as welcoming and helpful for mobility and recovery, and they also mention an element of socialization and periodic educational guest speakers. The shared emphasis is on making exercise feel accessible and worthwhile.

common 2 reviews mention this

Community activities and homey space

Residents mention frequent activities alongside a home-like environment.

A couple of reviews describe an atmosphere that feels like home, with welcoming decor and an owner who is involved with clients and families. These same reviewers mention activities happening almost every day for seniors, framing the environment as more than just care visits. The emphasis is on daily life and engagement in addition to assistance.

caveat 7 reviews mention this

Continuity and staffing can be uneven

Some reviews report staffing coverage and continuity problems that affected their experience.

Several reviewers express concerns about communication, caregiver training, and inconsistent scheduling. Complaints include missed hours, late arrivals, early departures, no-shows, and high turnover that left families without the caregiver continuity they expected. A few also mention that calls and follow-up felt difficult when problems arose.

caveat 2 reviews mention this

Costs are questioned with missed service

At least two reviews question value when service was missed or inconsistent.

One reviewer describes paying a monthly fee while reporting uncovered shifts and adjusting payments due to missed hours. Another calls the service not worth the stated cost, citing issues with showing up for shifts and related performance problems. Taken together, the cost criticism is tied to gaps in delivered care rather than pricing alone.
