Overall Experience

Agincare provided excellent care for my mum. All care staff treated my mum with dignity and respect. They went above and beyond and gave my mum in her last few months the best care possible. They treated her like they were looking after their own mother. She loved their visits and they made her smile and laugh a lot. I have worked in care and we had other care companies before Agincare and none of them come close to how good the Agincare staff are. I cannot thank them enough. They are the best care company ever.

Overall Experience

I have nothing but good things to say about my experiences at Brushett House. I can't find fault with the staff. They have all adapted to my needs perfectly, they are all really lovely and have made me feel very much at home. The flat itself is really nice too. Like a new place. Could not be happier!

Amazing staff, very friendly and willing to help when able to know to be approachable to everyone.

Happy, friendly, amazing, honest, reliable, one member of staff in particular is very busy but always has time for any of us and always sorts out our worries or concerns. Area manager lovely always happy to talk to us and when they return they listen. All staff at Brushett House go the extra mile.

Overall Experience
My experience from having our regular carers is a positive one. On the whole we have had consistency with the regular carers that come to our home every week. They are respectful, take care in their work and are knowledgeable on certain aspects of care. Most importantly they communicate with my husband and treat him with respect.

Having regular carers who you can trust not only to do their job but who also respect your property means a great deal.

Review from Jen (Granddaughter of Client) published on 7 August 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

This past year has been very challenging for both me and my grandfather. We had a few teething problems with the agency. A select few, as usual, were not great but as you guys know towards the end of granddads life things were going really well.

We went from 2 x a day care on a single carer up to 3 x double up and you guys were amazing I’m not allowed to say names but I know who you are and I can’t thank you guys enough for going above and beyond for him, and for me also. I will always speak highly of a select few, as you are classed as the best of the best.

But with anywhere always a few teething problems but nothing worth mentioning here.

I just want to say thank you Agincare.
