Review of Better Care at Home East from Dorothy C (Wife of Client) published on 24 April 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My Husband is new client to Better Care East. We changed care Company just two weeks ago. Already we have no regrets in changing. My husband has had carers for three years, since changing he keeps saying I am getting five star treatment. Carers and every member of staff that we have met are so kind and nothing is too much trouble. As his wife who has been caring for him for nearly five years. I think I've died and gone to heaven. The support I get is amazing. Thank you to everyone at Better Care so glad we found you. We are so pleased we were recommended to this amazing caring Company.

Reply from Joannah Bishop, Director at Better Care at Home East

Review of Better Care at Home East from Rachel B (Daughter-in-law of Client) published on 14 April 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I cannot overstate how delighted I've been with the service provided by Better Care at Home East. They were the most flexible, communicative, supportive team that I could have hoped for. They really bent over backwards to provide the best care. There were extremely accommodating with the constantly changing demands of my father-in-law, and nothing was too much trouble. This was such an enormous help as we live over 100 miles away so weren't able to be on site at short notice. They were instrumental in sourcing the right care home, and going so far as actually moving him in. Faultless service which i would recomnend without any hesitation.

Can't praise the carers enough. The proactive and loving care that the team provided not only allowed my father to stay in his home but gave me the assurance that he was being given the best care possible. Communication was great and nothing was too much trouble for the team. Would highly recommend this company to look after you loved ones.

Review of Better Care at Home West from Nicholas G (Son of Client) published on 9 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Over the last 18 months I have been totally amazed at the care, support and genuine good wishes of the staff at Better Care. I want to thank Julia, Rowan, Lenka and all the other staff who have helped my mum deal with Dementia whilst relatively young. At the start I was sceptical as I have never paid for any service like this, but the staff and the support have been life changing and life giving.. without their support we would not have been able to have our mum stay at home for the length of time she has. A huge thank you! Your organisation is an absolute credit to the industry. Thank you

Reply from Rowan Jackson, Registered Manager at Better Care at Home West

Dearest Nicholas, thank you so very much for taking the time to write us a review, and for your kind words. We've so glad that we were able to help at this challenging time for your family, and we wish you all the best of luck in the next chapter. Best regards

Review of Better Care at Home West from Annie S (Stepdaughter of Client) published on 20 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

It will be hard to find the appropriate words to express how grateful we were to the whole team at Better Care at Home West (BC@HW). From the first email & phonecall correspondence I was left feeling very confident and safe as it was obvious that we were dealing with a company that was professional and caring. The correspondence & support whilst Maurice was in hospital was second to none - thank you for your patience during this time. The home care provided was fantastic for Maurice and all staff members treated us as a family with kindness, patience & professionalism. It was a truly difficult time for us all, made more manageable with the support of BC@HW. Expertly led by Rowan and the management team - all employees of BC@HW should feel proud of being such an amazing team. The online information about care visits meant that we could all stay really informed about Maurice's condition. Maurice couldn't have spoken more highly about his care. You all made a difference / thank you.

Dearest Annie. Thank you doesn't seem even close to adequate a reply to your beautiful words. But thank you so much and I will be sharing this with our team straight away.

Review of Better Care at Home East from Karen B (Daughter of Client) published on 4 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

You may just have found your lifeline! We certainly did when we found Better Care at Home, they have been caring for my parents, both who have dementia for over 8 years now - a package that has grown from pop in visits daily to a full 24 hour package. To say we couldn't do life without them is an understatement, they really are our lifeline and above all with their outstanding care Mum (who is now totally bed centered) and Dad are both able to continue living in their own home, and my husband and I are able to enjoy our lives again, worry free.

Reply from Joannah Bishop, Director at Better Care at Home East
Thank you so much Karen for you kind words. Its our honour to look after your mum and dad you are all part of the Better Care East family.

I know she would say the same but doesn't do on line!

Review of Better Care at Home East from Gary H (Son of Client) published on 12 January 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Better Care have been looking after my father since he broke his hip several years ago. This accident together with his dementia meant that he needed help with his day to day requirements which steadily increased until he passed away late October. At all times the staff were cheerful, competent and professional and dad really enjoyed their visits. They were very good in keeping me informed at all times, both by text, phone and the invaluable app which I could access at any time. Dad's care requirements increased as his health deteriorated but at every stage it was with his best interests in mind and the reasons why explained to me. Nothing was too much trouble.Dad never wanted to end his days in a home and with Better Cares help he achieved that. Without their invaluable support this would have been impossible and our family will be forever grateful.

Review of Better Care at Home East from Simon O (Son of Client) published on 11 November 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Better Care have been looking after my mum for the last 2 years, enabling her to live independently in her own home. I live 3 hours drive away, so it has been amazing to know that the team are there for her. They have always gone above and beyond all expectations to keep her safe and happy. They keep me incredibly well informed and have stepped in to provide additional support when needed, when I can't be there - and always with a smile.
Unfortunately my mum now needs more full time care so is moving into a Care Home and the team have been brilliant in supporting us with this, even attending meetings with the Social Work team and the Nursing Home. I really don't know how my mum and I could have coped without them.

I can't recommend them highly enough and will really miss having them on our side, dealing with all the trials and tribulations of living with old age and dementia.

Reply from Joannah Bishop, Director at Better Care at Home East
Dear Simon, its been our pleaure supporting your mum. We will all miss her very muh. Thanks for taking the time to write us a review. We really appreciate it. Take care good care, and we hope mum settles in well.

Review of Better Care at Home West from D G (Daughter of Client) published on 29 October 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

As a family we're really pleased with the care, support and compassion shown to our Mum, who has advanced dementia. We have a slightly unusual set up for care, but it has been no problem for Better Care and the communication has been excellent across the whole team. Mum's carer is fabulous and treats Mum as an individual and tailors her visits with her accordingly, depending on how Mum is on any given day. As I'm so far away it's reassuring to know my Dad is also getting the benefits of this service too. Thank you Better Care.

Reply from Rowan Jackson, Registered Manager at Better Care at Home West

Dearest D, thank you so much for your kind words. They make all the difference to us. We always try to tailor our to meet the needs of the individuals we look after, and I'm so glad we've managed to get this right for your mum.

Review of Better Care at Home West from Patsy C (Relative of Client) published on 14 October 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The care, companionship and genuine concern that Better Care have for their Clients is amazing. They have been providing care now for about 2 and a half years and it just keeps getting better. They are responsive, proactive and transparent. Living a three hour drive away and our family members not wanting to move, we wanted to respect their choice about living independently but we were so worried and thought that this would be impossible. However Better Care have made it possible, they organised a care rota that works, they are flexible when needed and the amazing cheerful disposition of all of their care staff brings a smile to our loved ones faces as soon as they arrive at the door. They go above and beyond in supporting individuals and their families. We have had some really difficult and challenging moments, Better Care have stepped in each time with sensible, compassionate, kind and extremely caring resolutions. Better Care is quite simply the Best Care.

Can't thank them enough.

Caring, kind and very efficient. A wonderful attitude to providing the best possible service. My mum is very happy with the support she receives from each of the carers who attend her.

Review of Better Care at Home West from Ian B (Son of Client) published on 13 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Better Care at Home have been caring for my Mum. They are excellent and go above and beyond expectation, enabling us to be confident that Mum is safe and very well looked after. She has a very small number of carers(4) which she really appreciates, and this has enabled her to build relationships with them. Also they are punctual, which reduces Mum's anxiety. We regularly talk to managers and share information. This has enabled us to respond quickly to Mum's needs. Their liaison when she was recently in hospital was excellent and on coming home Mum very quickly settled and assumed her daily routine. Simply they are excellent and highly recommended.

Reply from Rowan Jackson, Registered Manager at Better Care at Home West

Thanks so much for your review Mr B! Staying small as a provider does help us to keep the number of staff we send to a minimum. We're so glad Your mum has settled back home so well after her recent admission and we are really grateful for all the support you give us.
