Overall Experience
I was very happy with the care given to my mum by the carers.
All carers gave high standard of care to her, that was personal centered
I gave them input on what could assist my mum, which they took on board and implemented into her care plan
Overall, because of the care and time given my mum through Ascot Care staff, she has come away with a more positive outlook. Through what is a challenging time in her life

Overall Experience
We needed care very quickly due to my in laws having operations. We needed it quickly and needed it for an uncertain amount of time.
Lagin explained it all to us clearly and was super quick at setting up a care plan.
The weekly rota was handy and the communication to any changes or concerns was fantastic.

The carers made my in laws feel very comfortable at a very uncertain time.

Ascot care were simply marvelous with my father's care in his final week's.
Their staff were so caring and respectful in their approach and manners.
I can't thank them enough, especially when it comes to the live in carer who came to stay with us in dads last days his care went well beyond his remit.

Thanks to all the staff for helping us at a most difficult time.

Overall Experience
I have always been treated with respect and consideration, and have been encouraged to be involved and included in decision making with my Partner who receives care from Ascot. All the staff provide high quality , professinal care, which they give with care and compassion . Communication is excellent between all members of the team. The management team are very approachable and always listen......they are clearly aware of all current care needs , and are very obviously concerned to ensure that they are able to meet those needs. Formal, regular reviews are carried out every 3 months which are very helpful. All staff are reliable, approachable, friendly and professional and they clearly want to make my partners life and my life as good as possible
I have had my own health problems recently and all staff have been very supportive to me , adapting my partners care package to ensure I feel more able to manage

I would , and always have been, extremely happy to recommend Ascot Care

Review from Susi L (Daughter of Client) published on 9 September 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I am very grateful for the fantastic care that Ascot Care provided for both of my parents over a period of several years. The carers have been kind, friendly and respectful and always brightened up my parents days. The team genuinely care about the people they are looking after. They are very good at covering any shifts during absences and I can't ever recall an instance of a visit being missed.

The carers have been proactive about making suggestions and flagging up any concerns. The manager and office team have been very good at responding to any queries and keeping us informed and were very responsive at putting some extra care in place at very short notice during a difficult time which was hugely appreciated.

I would be very happy to recommend Ascot Care.

Overall Experience
I cannot speak highly enough of Ascot Care and the exceptional service they provide. For many years, they have taken wonderful care of my Nan, and I am incredibly grateful for all that they do. The manager and the entire team are truly personable and make a genuine effort to connect with not only my Nan but also with our whole family. Every carer I've met has been lovely, friendly, and always takes the time to acknowledge us.
Additionally, I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to the manager for his quick response during a challenging time. When my father suffered an unexpected spinal stroke, he stepped in at a moment's notice to arrange care. His support and promptness made a world of difference during a difficult situation.
Thank you, Ascot Care. Your commitment to providing top-notch care is truly appreciated!

Highly recommended.

Review from Jenny S (Daughter of Client) published on 23 April 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We have worked with Ascot Care since 2018. They have provided excellent home care for our elderly father during this time. For years with just 2 hours domiciliary/week increasing proportionately as more care was required to 2-3 visits per day and ultimately to live-in care prior to the nursing home. We have really appreciated their services, their friendly staff and most of all their warm, consistent approach, quality meal preparation and essential communication for our Dad. Staff at all levels have gone the country mile to assist him and us. Thanks to their care Dad has been able to continue at home living independently for over 7 years. This wouldn't have been possible without their services. The manager has patiently discussed next steps with us and sourced all sorts of help with each challenge faced. Our first meeting with the director was a game-changer and her empathy was immense. This deep rooted sensitivity is rooted throughout their services and stems from outstanding nursing experience.

Reply from Lagin Riecker, Registered Manager at Ascot Care

Dear Jenny, thank you so much for this glowing review. We take great pride in what we do and feel it was an honour to make a difference to your dad's life for 7 years. All the best.

We have been using Ascot Care for two years now. Everyone is very helpful, from the office staff to the carers. Communication is very good and nothing is too much trouble. Having used two other companies in the past for my husband's care I can highly recommend Ascot Care.

Overall Experience

The management team and staff at Ascot Care were excellent in assessing my father's requirements and helpful and considerate. However, the carer was uncommunicative with my father during their stay and lacked social skills. However, they provided adequate and professional care in terms of his needs.

Review from Tom F (Son of Client) published on 26 September 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My father in his 90's used Ascot Care for nine months until suffering from a life-changing stroke in August 2024.
During this period, we found Ascot Care to be very reliable. They offered my father flexibility too, such as when he went abroad and did not need a carer. One was then made available for him within a day or two of his return.

The carers were mostly from Eastern Europe. My father found some easier to communicate with than others, however they were all honest and tried their best for him.

Cannot recommend the team at Ascot Care highly enough, be it the office staff arranging appointments (or rearranging them when dad forgets a doctors appointment!) or the care staff who have been fantastic with dad. Kind and considerate and happy to sit and engage/chat with dad if there is time left in the appointment slot.

Thank you to the manager and staff

Review from Alison B (Daughter of Client) published on 24 February 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Dear Ascot Care,
None of us had any previous experience of personal care until my father needed it. The management and the team proved to be invaluable with the compassionate approach to help us figure out a way to give Dad all that he needed. By mutual agreement, we came up with a plan which enlisted the services of our private carer, live-in care from Ascot and weekend breaks for the live-in carers from the local agency. This worked well until our private carer became overwhelmed so we had to change to 2 live-in carers from Ascot Care. Then we changed again to include a night carer, which happened to coincide exactly with Dad's passing. All behaved professionally and helped Mum and the family cope.

One thing we took a while to understand was the expense and preparation of meals for the carers which fell to Mum and the family to organise and cook as it would have been impossible for them to do this as well.

Overall Experience

Having used Ascot Care for over two years for live-in care for my mum I cannot recommend highly enough the company. The live-in carers are exceptional giving compassion and respect to a dementia patient attending to all physical and mental needs along the journey allowing us to enable Mum to remain in her home until the end. Fulfilling all duties and beyond showing total respect for the home and culinary delights conjured up to entice Mum to eat. The office staff are open and willing to discuss at all times any problems or ideas. It was definitely the best decision we made in contacting them to help home care and I will always be grateful.

Review from Sarah E (Daughter of Client) published on 25 September 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We used a live in carer in order for my husband and I to have a holiday. We booked 10 days care for a weeks holiday, that way we overlapped the care at the beginning as we had no idea what to expect and Mum was understandably nervous. But what a lovely experience, the carer that came was so friendly but also respectful and professional, she was part of the family by the time she left. I can’t express how much it helped me going away without worry or guilt of leaving. Mum was safe and happy.

The Ascot Care team have provided great support for my mother over a number of years. The visiting staff who assist with house cleaning, linen changes, ironing, shopping and general wellbeing are always friendly, helpful and supportive. They also provide companionship and are sensitive to her needs.

The office staff are always a friendly voice when you phone and are extremely helpful and professional. They have always responded quickly and with a good solution should we call with a request for any additional support. Thank you and keep up the good work.
