Review from Debbie W (Daughter-in-law of Client) published on 25 November 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Carers from Briars Homecare come in to see my MIL (93 years) 3 times a day. All the carers are lovely and very professional and make her feel at ease.
They supervise her medication and personal care and always encourage her to eat (she''s a fussy eater with little appetite, so that is really important

for us). They always have a chat with her about daily life too which is really nice.
We were very worried about having carers as MIL isn't easy with strangers, but nothing is too much trouble and the service they provide has taken all the worry away.
The manager and all the staff in the office are also lovely, very knowledgeable and super helpful.

Reply from Samantha Crew-Easton, Office Manager at Briars Home Care ServicesThank you so much for your kind words, we really do appreciate this and I am so happy that our staff are providing a great service to you and your MIL.
After many changes over the last few years within the company this is great news, and shows how the hard work has paid off.
Thank you

Overall Experience

Both the office staff and carers from Briars Home Care were simply amazing. We needed help quite quickly with a relative, with specific needs and the response from them was faultless. Highly recommended!

Overall Experience

Office staff were really friendly, I called up for extra hours after an accident a week after going with them and they found the time to help out with almost everything I asked for. Office staff are angels and deserves so much love. Can't fault them.

Overall Experience

I was a client of Briars Home Care Services for approximately 10 months. I can honestly say they were the worst agency I have ever had. When I first started with them they could only offer me an 11 am morning call, they said it was only temporary and as soon as they could they would give me an earlier

time, that never happened. Same with my bed call visit, 6 pm, 17 hours in stuck in bed is too much for anyone, especially someone like me who is still relatively young with 2 children. I was supposed to have been given one of their handbooks (by statutory regulation) I never received such a book.
The standard of staff training was extremely poor. This was evident when they brought down a metal bar on the hoist and it hitting me on the head. At least twice a week, frequently more either 1 or both carers were 30 mins or more late, often only 1 carer would turn up. I could go on but not enough space on here, the office kept sending carers I had barred. Strongly advise avoiding this disrespectful agency.
