Overall Experience

My father is a fiercely independent man who always did things for himself. Since my mother passed away 2 years ago, he had become very lonely but would still refuse any help. I am so grateful to the Manager and experienced carers who have treated him with complete respect and empathy allowing him to

maintain his independence with some assistance once a day. No amount of positive praise is enough for GoodOaks and I would absolutely recommend them to everyone. Thank you!

It is our pleasure to be able to help Dad and thank you for placing your trust in us.

Overall Experience

My siblings and I are so happy with the care GoodOaks provide to our Dad. Initially they started with respite care but this increased to daily care as Dad warmed to the regular carers very quickly. We had considered a care home for Dad but he seems so happy this is no longer a concern for us. We highly

recommend GoodOaks Bedford - the carers and office staff are all wonderful.

Thank you for the review. We're so happy that your Dad decided to stay on beyond the respite care.

I have found all the carers from this agency supportive and very professional in their interaction with my mother. The company managers are very helpful in supporting me and keeping my mother's care plan updated and amended as required.

Overall Experience

This is my first experience using a care company for both support and live in care. From the beginning it has been the absolute very best we could hope for. The level of care is outstanding. Not only that, but also the support for the family has been invaluable at such a difficult time. They have gone

way beyond their brief to ensure the best care, support and advise for my mother and family. I would have no problem recommending GoodOaks with the highest of praise. I particularly would like to acknowledge the professionalism and support given by the management team. My heartfelt thanks to you both.

from Paul L (Son of Client) published on 1 April 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My father has dementia, and we were starting to struggle to keep him in his own home. I reached out to the team at Good Oaks who have been brilliant throughout the whole process. Our first meeting was difficult as Dad didn't want to accept care, but the manager at Good Oaks was caring and understanding

and we agreed to reschedule when Dad was in a better "mood"
When the time came, the manager was awesome with Dad and we convinced him to let us try with the carers.
Dad loves this now. The team help him with meal times and check he has taken his med's. It has removed a huge amount of pressure and worry off myself and my brothers, knowing the Good Oaks team are there.
The entire team have been brilliant. The girls who come each day have really helped by talking to Dad, and he now feels like has some "big sisters"
The communication and feed back we get from the team is also brilliant.
I would whole heartily recommend the Good Oaks team. Thank you so much

Thank you for this amazing review! Dad feeling like the Care Professionals are like 'big sisters' is fantastic given the initial reluctance!

Overall Experience

I want to recommend the Goodoaks Homecare provider. They are the most efficient and professional care provider I have used in Bedford. Their communication is especially commendable, both to the client and to myself as the finance provider, sending timely and accurate invoices. They have been able to

find very suitable carers for my daughter and to accommodate the specific time requirements. All in all, they have provided a top-class service for which I and my daughter are very grateful.

Overall Experience

I would highly recommend Goodoaks Bedford, I not only found them to be professional but also kind and caring towards my father even though he was challenging at times and was not receptive to having carers in his home.
Knowing that my dad was in safe hands enabled me to go on holiday for which I had

not been able to for a long time.
Everyone on the team that looked after my dad showed him great respect and at all times put his health and well-being first, along with his care needs and ensuring his dignity.

Thank you for the wonderful review. We appreciate you putting your trust in us and we were really happy to provide respite care to enable you to go away on holiday.

Overall Experience

GoodOaks provides my mother with outstanding care. We needed care input at short notice and the manager was so helpful and responsive to our needs. We are very impressed with the individualised care Goodoaks provides, they aim to match the client with a carer not just suited to their care needs but

also their personality. They appreciate the importance of continuity of care and make sure my mother only has carers she knows. The communication with us is excellent and we feel completely secure in the care being given. There is also flexibility in the care which gives us extra reassurance. My mother has gone from being reluctant to have carers to looking forward to the visits.

Thank you so much for this beautiful review. We are so happy knowing Mum looks forward to the care visits! Thank you for placing your trust in us.

As a family, we spent a lot of time researching various home care companies in Bedford and were very impressed with the empathetic and kind manner of the company owner.
After the initial meeting we had no doubt GoodOaks Homecare Bedford would be our only choice. We have been so happy with the care

they provide for mum. Mum seems so much happier and looks forward to their daily visits. We highly recommend them.

We moved our Mum's care from another company to GoodOaks Bedford and have been really happy.
They are always on time and keep to the same carers so Mum does not get confused as she has dementia.
As a family, we have been so impressed with the carers and the management staff and would highly recommend.

Thank you so much to the owner and team of carers who provided homecare visits for me following my discharge from hospital. You were all amazing and looked after me so well. Your care positively increased my well-being and aided the start of my recovery. Your professionalism and attention to my needs

was spot on. You all genuinely cared about me as a person. You are such a friendly, caring, kind and supportive team who provided everything I needed on my journey to recovery. Your services are thoroughly recommended. I shall never forget you all.

Overall Experience

My father had a stroke in Nov 2023. He was discharged from hospital with 3 x a day care. The original care agency were not reliable and it was causing a lot of stress and anxiety for my parents. I contacted Good Oaks after seeing reviews online and from the first encounter with the manager, I felt reassured

by her warmth and kindness. Good Oaks have made such a difference to both my parents- they turn up on time, are reliable, compassionate and efficient. Within just a short while, the carers have become like part of the family. I cannot fault them. I have no hesitation in recommending Good Oaks - they really are quality care at home.

We recently switched mum''s care provider to GoodOaks whom I cannot recommend enough for their quality of care and professionalism. The care mum receives is exemplary; the caregivers are polite, respectful, very kind and supportive - frequently going above and beyond to ensure mum's needs are met.

The care manager is fantastic and communication is superb at every level. It's a huge relief to know that mum is in very good hands with the exceptional team at GoodOaks - thank you!

Overall Experience

The team at Goodoaks supported my mother in the last 3 months of her life, working together with a live-in carer to provide additional care during her final weeks. I cannot thank the whole team enough for their care, compassion, expertise and general support that they provided not only to my mother

but also to the live-in carer and myself during this difficult time. In particular, the management of the service and the knowledge shared on how to best manage this difficult time was incredible. Thank you to the whole team. I would wholly recommend Goodoaks to anyone looking for an agency that puts its clients at the heart of every action.

Overall Experience

I was recommended to 'GoodOaks' by a gentleman I met in hospital who was caring for his sick wife. He extolled their services and relayed the wonderful treatment his wife was offered by them. I subsequently contacted the director and indeed their kindness and professionalism was palpable. The director

and manager guided me through the process with empathy and efficiency. From the initial assessment to the tailored care plan, every step was handled with utmost consideration for my mother's needs. They showed great compassion when she was in pain, treating her with dignity and respect to the end. They genuinely exceeded my expectations and provided a sense of reassurance and peace of mind at a very challenging time.

I can't really thank the team at GoodOaks enough for the care and support they provided during the final weeks of my grandmother's life. From start to finish they were professional and responsive and continuously demonstrated both empathy for the situation and a genuine consideration for the wellbeing

of everyone involved. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for ongoing support or end-of-life care for a family member or loved one.
