The attitude and quality of the service continues to be of a good standard in the large majority of cases. The carers are well dressed and generally have a cheerful manner. They seem patient with my wife's difficulties and limitations, tackling new problems in their stride. The care plan is generally
adhered to, any issues arising are discussed during the six monthly review, the plan being adjusted where necessary.

Staff always polite and cheerful. They come when they told me they would. They fed my husband, meals I prepared, again cheerfully & encouraging him to eat. They always treated him with respect, encouraged him to try to help himself - turn over - stand up using the Mackworth - attempting to climb.

I have found all the carers to be cheerful, helpful and courteous. Some go above and beyond what is required, and some carers see what is needed without being told. Many of the carers are very encouraging and let you know if you have made good progress. They try to get you to think positively.
I am
most impressed with the general standard of care.

The staff at Candlelight Care have provided care and companionship to my elderly mother for several years; as I live in the north of England they kept me up to date with anything that I should be aware of such as medication and my mother's wellbeing. The carers themselves are so caring and friendly
often going the extra mile to help my mother. The office staff who I dealt most with are lovely, they love what they do often in difficult circumstances. I thoroughly recommend Candlelight Wimborne to any relative of an elderly person who requires home care.

Candlelight are fantastic. Mum suffers with depression, anxiety and dementia. Under previous carers she was struggling massively and suicidal. Candlelight taken her on and the difference in mum has been amazing. They really care, mum is treated with respect, dignity and compassion and is absolutely
thriving under them. She now smiles, talks and even laughs! We simply cannot thank them enough for all their support with mum. They are truly wonderful.

Thank you for the beautiful review and we are pleased to hear that mum started on the D2A (Discharge to Assess) service initially and then transferred over to our domiciliary (care at home) service. Was a joy to read about all the improvements mum had improved upon. I will share with her core teams, as it is important for them to know.

Mum had Candlelight Care for only three days in March 2025 but I cannot fault their care and attention to her in those final days. All the staff that attended her, which was three times a day, were polite, friendly and attentive to her needs. She was happy with every one of them that she met. The staff
in the office were efficient and responsive and showed empathy during the time that mum sadly passed away. I believe that they all truly cared for her even though it was only for a short time. They most definitely put my mind at ease knowing that they were visiting her throughout the day. I would highly recommend them to anyone that needed care at home in the area that they cover.

Since summer of 2024, Candlelight Carers have been coming to help with my husband's morning care and it's always a pleasure to see them. We really do appreciate them. They are always kind and gentle with him, taking care, time and effort to get him ready for the day. They leave having given great service

My mum has the pleasure of the lovely ladies who call on her twice a day, they really are the best they cannot do enough for her. She has recently been diagnosed with dementia and the care they give is so lovely and kind she can't wait to see them and even with her broken hearing aids, she says they
have a lovely chat. She really does depend on them and they step up to the mark, we cannot fault them at all.
Thank you so much, as a family we really are grateful.

Without exception the Candlelight Care carers who have looked after my husband on two occassions have been wonderful: advising on equipment and organising its provision, going above and beyond their remit to obtain suitable medications and always being positive, encouraging and above all good humoured.
Well done Candlelight!

My wife is now a resident at a local care home, she has dementia. Candlelight provide a carer at the home twice a week for 2 hours each visit. This allows me to carry out urgent tasks and medical appointments on those 2 days, whilst providing support and companionship to my wife. The carer is wonderful
and my wife considers her a friend, allowing even the most intimate support. I am not sure that I would be able to cope without this marvellous support.
