Consultus Care & Nursing

The care that my mother has received from Consultus Care and Nursing Agency has been absolutely gold standard. We are continually impressed by the different carers that the agency introduces us to and we appreciate the responsiveness and the professionalism of the care managers that we have got to know over the last two years of employing carers. To know that the carers are supported by the organisation, monitored, trained and given resources to care well, is so reassuring. We recommend Consultus to everyone we know and are hugely grateful, as a family.

Very efficient and caring agency. Spoke easily with named people and an excellent nurse arrived within a day. Enormously supportive to patient and family. Built strong relationships with local care providers.

I cannot praise Mum's carer, highly enough. Right from the start she ensured Mum was "fed & watered" regularly, took her medication on time and ensured she got up and walked around several times every day. She did everything needed to run the household. Mum's health and mobility is much improved. All thanks to her carer for her care and compassion.

You won't regret it and recovery is so much easier with reassurance and good care.

I have Parkinson's disease and I live alone so it was essential for me to have some live-in care following a total hip replacement operation. The Consultus nurse arrived at my home the day I came out of hospital, she immediately familiarised herself with my needs and set about making me comfortable. She lived with me for two weeks and in that time not only carried out nursing tasks, such as managing my medication, monitoring my wound and overseeing my exercises, but also did any cooking or cleaning that was necessary, took me to appointments and to meet friends. She took her breaks to fit in with my needs and was happy to withdraw when I had other visitors. I could not have hoped for a better companion.

Fantastic care during a difficult period. No better service would be possible.

We needed a live-in nurse urgently after my aunt had a fall. Consultus was recommended to us and I'm so grateful that they were! From the very first phone call, I found them to be extremely helpful and sympathetic and most importantly incredibly competent. My aunt fell on the Friday and by the Tuesday we had been assigned a live-in nurse. What I liked especially about Consultus is that they don't match the client to the nurse geographically but by character. How refreshing! My aunt was a very strong-willed and determined lady. After an extremely thorough assessment Consultus immediately realised that they needed to assign an experienced and adroit nurse. They couldn't have found someone more perfect for us. Not only was the nurse super-competent but we were so impressed by her sympathetic nature and caring manner. My aunt honestly couldn't have been in better hands. The Consultus nurse gave us the ability to give my aunt her strongest wish, which was to die at peace in her own home.

The service is extremely expensive but care at this level does not come cheap and most agencies have similar pay scales.

We as a family have had a really good/extraordinary experience with Consultus Care nursing. Whilst it has been the most devastating time to help our mother through dreadfully unwell health and pain to passing away, Consultus Care helped us all. Firstly assisting my mother in her really painful illness and admission to hospital and then supporting us, her daughters and family as we spent the last few days and hours with our mother. Our carer assisted us with the first few days after her passing in a holistic, professional, nurturing way. She is our guardian angel

We had the best lady ever. She was really lovely, kind, considerate and thoughtful and we all, including my husband who couldn't speak, loved her. Thank you.

Every carer has brought something to my mother's life and she has continued to be very content and well cared for.

My mother has had Consultus carers continuously for nearly two years. They have been consistently excellent without exception; caring, considerate, supportive, proactive and positive. As a result, my mother has had a quality of life, which she has enjoyed, which would have been impossible under any other circumstances, given her serious health issues and declining health.

I have had a live-in carer from Consultus for about a year. All carers have been helpful, courteous, sympathetic and pleasant company. They manage medication efficiently and cook pleasant meals.

We owe a great deal of gratitude to the management and staff of this organisation and would not hesitate to recommend them to others.

My wife returned from hospital following major stomach surgery and required personal nursing and care. Consultus introduced an experienced, retired RGN/district nurse from Lancashire who proved invaluable. She was professional, very competent, supportive and reassuring.

A certain member of staff was an angel in our hours of need. She advised and helped find us a fantastic nurse. Thank you for your support, guidance and advice (which went beyond finding us a suitable nurse).

We have used the services of Consultus a number of times in 2019 and usually as an emergency for my ageing mother in law. Consultus has provided the most amazing service, finding one of their lovely carers within 24-36 hours. All the carers that we have experienced so far have been kind, thoughtful and patient. We don't know how we would have coped without Consultus.

My partner was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) in July. His health deteriorated very rapidly in September and I needed live-in nursing support for when he was discharged when nothing further could be done. The nurse was arranged promptly and assisted greatly by liaising with the hospital re all things medical on my behalf. She was also a huge support for me in being able to deal with the final days of my partner's life. I would recommend anyone in my situation seeks this level of support - it was invaluable.

Nothing is too much trouble and they are totally calm and reassuring for all of us. Every carer has been a pleasure to have in the house and they go above and beyond any normal duties. I would highly recommend them and regularly do!

Consultus provided one month of nursing care, then four weeks of night care. We found all staff professional, well mannered, able, friendly and very reassuring.
