Review submitted from a Postal Card by Nanda H (Client) on Wednesday 20 September 2017. Relates to September 2017.
I had Bluebird when my family were away and I will most certainly have them next time. Wonderful carers, absolutely marvellous. I knew who was coming and what time, and they were spot on the dot! They managed to do everything I needed in the time I paid for - fantastic. Cheery, chatty, kind, thoughtful people. I cannot praise them enough.

The carers always have a lovely smile when they come to see me. I think of them as friends. Nothing is too much trouble for them. They help me to get up and washed and dressed and they put all of my washing in for me. They go above and beyond - all of them. They play dominoes with me at every call - they always make time to do this.

I have had LifeCarers for about 1 1/2 years now and I am really pleased with the care company. The carers that I have had have all been lovely and easy to get along with and trust. They are extremely reliable and good at time keeping. If I have had any worries or questions there are ample people around (carers and office members) to help me out.
I am overall very happy and will be carrying on my care with LifeCarers.

Excellent manager. Always willing to listen, offer advice and support. Care staff, although never met them, they write notes of care given in detail which is reassuring.

The carers are very good to me. I get help to have a shower and sometimes they come with me to hospital appointments. They are all such nice people, they offer to do any jobs around my house as well as showering me. I find them a great help.

The caregivers from Home Instead are all absolutely brilliant. My aunt had very restricted mobility and needed help with personal care.
They treated her and me, with the utmost dignity. They were all very professional but also very friendly. They put us all at ease.

Review submitted from a Postal Card by Leila W (Wife of Client) on Wednesday 20 September 2017. Relates to September 2017.
We have employed Home Instead for nearly a year and found them excellent. Have only once, some time ago, requested a change in carer. This caused no problem.
My husband looks forward to their visits to give him a shower (three times a week) and he enjoys the company of the carer who is always thoughtful.
It is a great help to me and gives me a little break and I think we work well together. Home Instead does their best to accommdate any change we might have to make at short notice.

Review submitted from a Website Submission by Elizabeth G (Daughter of Client) on Wednesday 20 September 2017. Relates to September 2017.
LifeCarers have provided care every day for my mother since 2012 and for my father until he passed away in 2014.
The care they provide is excellent.
Both the carers themselves and the managers are responsive and communicative.
They are friendly and adapt the care provided to the needs as they change over time.
I rely on them to let me know about any problems and to help find solutions and they have never let me down.
I would recommend them without hesitation to neighbours and friends.

My family and I wholeheartedly recommend this agency.
Their philosophy is dignity with care and kindness, staff and management exude this.
Communication is excellent, we as a family are kept up to date with all necessary information.
Our mother is receiving, in our opinion, the best care she deserves.

Thanks to the senior carer for arranging an amazing carer for my next door neighbour.
He was sadly discharged to a care home but he was well looked after by your team.
He still remembers the cheery hellos :)

RV Care Ltd came to help my Nan with her personal care whilst she was staying with me for 2 weeks. They were lovely, kind and extremely helpful with Nan and she enjoyed their company. She is quite an independent 97 year old but she felt safe and very happy to have extra assistance with the carers which was a massive relief for me! We would 100% recommend RV Care and when Nan visits again we will certainly be in contact again. Many thanks

Review submitted from a Postal Card by Wendy K (Daughter of Client) on Tuesday 19 September 2017. Relates to August 2017.
I have been so grateful to the two carers for all the assistance they have given mum including preventing her being "scammed" by a mobility scooter company. As I live over 200 miles away it gives me huge peace of mind to know someone is checking on mum a couple of times a week, making sure she gets out to the shops and generally sorting out odd jobs. Having met her main carer I took to him immediately and he seems a very good match for mums requirements. The regular feedback I get gives me huge confidence that all is well.

I needed 24/7 care after going home from hospital I had a broken hip and this company was recommended to me by two different people.
I've had two different Polish carers and they both have spoken very good English so no problems at all with communication the care I received was to a very good standard and nothing is ever too much trouble. I would not hesitate to recommend this company to anyone who requires a high standard of care.

Carers were always willing to do anything that we required. They were very kind and personable and we always enjoyed their company.
The care package was set up in one day as I had gone into hospital and knowing that my husband was being looked after was very reassuring.
