Thank you for your recent review. if we can be of any assistance, please do not hesitate to contact the office
The care co-ordination staff in the office were excellent, right from the very first assessment meeting. They were totally flexible about the number and type of visits as Mum was admitted to hospital and then discharge was planned on more than one occasion.
They were exceptionally reassuring to the family during the whole time they supported us. All staff should be congratulated on their professional, caring and flexible approach. I would not hesitate to recommend their services.
Thank you so much for the brilliant review. It was our pleasure to provide care and support to your mother and I'm very pleased that we were able to offer reassurance and flexibility during what I imagine would have been a difficult time for you all. I will be sure to share this review with the office team and care staff in Dorchester. Kindest regards.
I have found that all carers have been most helpful and courteous. However - regarding timings - not helpful. Is it possible for me to have earlier calls in the morning? This is most important to me.
Thank you for leaving us a review. I believe we have now resolved any queries with timings but please do reach out if there is anything further we can help with. I'm very pleased to see you've found the carers helpful and courteous. Best regards.

Thank you very much for taking the time to leave us this review. We are pleased it's going well. Best regards.
Each carer has been very helpful, all in different ways. Reassuring that someone is coming in each morning. If I need help again, I would like to use the service again.
Thank you for your positive review, we would be pleased to assist you again in the future, should you need some support. Take care.
There were a lot of different carers so little continuity. Of the 7 we saw, at least one had no experience of hoisting a disabled client so we had to teach them. The others were lovely. Our main issue was the confusion over the length of time care was required (2 weeks not 6 weeks) It took a long time to clear up and cost us more.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We appreciate all feedback and are always looking for ways to improve our service however I am pleased that you found a majority of the staff lovely. All staff receive full training on hoisting therefore we will be in touch to gather further details. Best regards.
All very good. Pleased with everything.
