I had used this service for support with my frail husband four years ago and recently needed help for myself for three weeks post operation.
The carers were better than ever and the organisation splendid.

The staff at Broomfield Care Home Care Services help me to keep my independence. I have always received friendly, professional and helpful service from the staff. They always arrive with a cheery greeting and nothing is too much trouble for them to undertake. All the staff including those I have spoken
to on the phone are the most helpful, polite patient, caring and responsive to varying situations. I am always treated with respect and I look forward to their visits.

I have found my regular carer most helpful and considerate especially these last few months since my wife died. I have personally recommended the company to my friends. The relief carers (when my regular carer was ill) has been equally competent.

Broomfield Care is a fantastic, small, friendly local company. The staff are second to none and I have never had any cause for complaint. They have supported my parents in their home as well as me in mine, and I have recommended them to several friends.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The care received from Broomfield Care was top quality in terms of professionalism, level of care, timeliness. Respect for both my aunt and us. Nothing was too much trouble and they allowed us to take time out knowing she would be safe in their hands. They would always try to accommodate us when we
could only give short notice. A first class company.

Review from Linda H (Niece of Client) published on 15 August 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Aunt aged 98 was a very independent, determined lady and it took a lot of persuasion to convince her the time had come to benefit from professional home care. Living in Australia it was necessary for us to make numerous internet enquiries and telephone calls to seek the appropriate care. Fortunately,
we came across Broomfield who impressed us at being professional, caring and extremely helpful. Despite being in Australia, Broomfield dealt competently with every aspect of the care needed and kept us fully informed of all developments. In view of my Aunt's very poor health, it was necessary to phone almost daily for updates and Broomfield were always available to talk things through. Broomfield made early morning visits to my Aunt and she often mentioned the friendly chats she had with her carers which quickly became the highlight of her day.
I would have absolutely no hesitation in stating that Broomfield should be considered everyone's 'Carer of Choice'.

I was very happy with the care received and only discontinued it because I moved into a care home nearer to my family, but have fond memories of my carers and felt that the staff were friends as well as carers.

My 95 year old father used the care service. He was always full of praise for the carers that visited he found them all to be friendly, polite, helpful and efficient and treated him with respect. He never had any cause to complain and was very happy with the service which was less worry for me.

Mum's carers were always efficient, cheery and kind. I was confident that they were doing their best for Mum and she was always pleased to see them. They were good at encouraging Mum to try even if she wasn't keen i.e. washing herself, getting around the house etc.

Oh, I am tearing my hair out - sweat running down my cheeks - words fail me, perhaps if, what I say, when I say - oh drop her. Broomfields are a well-established firm for carers, so what, I'll be sensible. They have been carers for me personally and my late husband. Several years, it's my pleasure
to be able to recommend their cheerfulness, but you can rely on their arriving on the scheduled time, bringing their willingness and ability to do all that is necessary for a good carer.

Broomfield has been supporting family members for several years. Very reliable. Only negative would be the number of different carers in any one week. Would be better if only a few different carers were used for Mum as it confuses her.

Broomfield was absolutely fantastic in helping Mum live independently with support for her last year, following a fall. Staff were kind, helpful and cheerful and Mume enjoyed their visits. They treated her with respect and affection. As I live 100 miles away it was possible to share Mum's care with
them, so on days when I was there she only needed a morning visit. This was nice for everyone.

End of life care support following discharge from hospital. Broomfield Care Home Care Services was selected by the family to support them in meeting mym's wishes to end her days in her own home with dignity.
All the staff were caring, professional and proactive in supporting her needs. They were attentive
and had a good rapport with mum (94) and family. I felt comfortable leaving my mother knowing she would be safe and well cared for.
Most importantly mum was happy to have them in her home.

Vicky

Vicky Hall

Job Title: Company Owner and Registered Manager Joined: 2009

Vicky Hall, the owner of Broomfield Care, has over 20 years of experience at the sharp end of care. She has provided care and support in a variety of different roles, from working with vulnerable adults and children in care to working in care homes for the elderly and for people with learning disabilities.


Vicky established Broomfield Care at the beginning of 2008. Shortly before this her Grandmother had become older and needed additional support. However, when Vicky tried to organise home care for her, she couldn’t find a company that matched up to her high expectations of quality care, delivered by dedicated and committed staff.


Vicky then decided to set up her own business providing care for others at the level she believed everyone was entitled to. She named the company after the hamlet her Grandmother had lived in, Broomfield in Kent.


At Broomfield Care, Vicky is supported by a hand-picked team of dedicated, committed and highly-skilled professionals.
