Care Together Ltd

Care Together have been invaluable to me in the care of my aunt. I live four hours away so needed a trusted company and they delivered everything I could have hoped for and more. The manager and her entire team are so caring and understanding and have made life so much easier for my aunt. Nothing seems to be too much for them and it's refreshing to find a team that all have superb standards and genuinely care. Thank you so much Care Together - I would not hesitate to recommend you.

All I can say is thank you.

I would recommend them wholeheartedly without hesitation. They definitely set the standard.

My great aunt’s dementia accelerated during Covid lockdowns. She had managed to live independently but was now struggling on many fronts. We turned to Care Together for home care, and they provided this for almost a year, until it was necessary to move her into a care home. The support we received from Care Together during that time was outstanding and made a difficult situation much easier. Without fail, I felt that her welfare was always the absolute priority for the owner and her team. She had four regular carers, all of whom were friendly, reliable and professional. No appointments were ever missed or even delayed – no mean feat for a smaller agency operating through what were challenging times for all of us. She became very fond of all the carers. Even at the end, Care Together went the extra mile by juggling schedules to ensure care was provided until the admission to the care home (much delayed by Covid) could finally happen. We remain very grateful for everything they did.

Care Together have provided reliable, friendly and practical support to Mum and myself over a three year period. Her care was mainly in the form of cleaning and company, and she looked forward to the weekly visit from her carer. Mum and the family were very well supported by one of the managers in helping to create a comprehensive statement, forward planning wishes. When Mum's needs increased, additional visits were provided until residential care could be arranged. The management were able to give very helpful advice about choosing residential care, which was much appreciated given how daunting this task felt at the time. Mum is now settled in a care home, but still chats about the times she spent with her carer and appreciated the support that enabled her to stay in her own home for as long as possible. I would not hesitate to recommend Care Together.

I engaged Care Together for my mother. The manager came and sorted the paperwork effortlessly, to start with it was for cleaning and chatting, to ease her into more care. With Covid, I cancelled and they were very understanding and held me on the books for later. Mum deteriorated during covid, not understanding it at all. I then approached the manager to re-instate care and introducing more actual care. Our main carer eased Mum gently into personal care. We quickly went from just 2 days a week to 3 days a week. Mum then started to deteriorate more and the manager kindly rearranged her schedules at short notice to increase the care to 5 days, then 5 days, twice a day and then we had in place 7 days 3 times a day. End of life came very quickly and unexpected to me, the team and medical staff. They put everything in place and leant me equipment etc. The team were lovely, compassionate, kind and helpful throughout the whole time and very supportive afterwards.

I cannot put into words how much Care Together have supported us through my mum's Lewy body dementia and my dad's cancer diagnosis. They go above and beyond and become very much part of the family. They have always been a support even at short notice.

My father has dementia but thanks to Care Together he is able to stay in his own home. The carers are all lovely, he gets on well with them all and looks forward to seeing them every day. They listen to him and they leave me messages if anything needs attention or phone if it’s more urgent. During the lockdown they also took over his cleaning which was a godsend. They have never let us down, they are so reliable and I would recommend them to anyone.

The carers are prompt and there is an effort to maintain consistency of carers. When my father fell in the house they dealt with the situation calmly and called an ambulance. On his return, the carer was there to meet him and settle him back into the house. He has set times for care when they are to come which helps my father organise his day. The manager is happy to meet to discuss his ongoing needs and has been helpful in planning future care.

They look after my mum so well and she is so pleased to know that they come when arranged. It is so good to know she is getting looked after so well whilst I can’t get there due to COVID-19, and the staff let us know how she is and her wellbeing.

My aunt had outstanding care right up to the end. All carers demonstrated compassion, professionalism, excellent communication opportunities, and endeavoured to maintain my aunt's dignity throughout her care. There was genuine affection shared between all staff and my aunt. It takes a good leadership team to have these consistent outstanding qualities in all the staff and that is why Care Together epitomises their name. They really do all care together.

I regard myself as extremely fortunate to be cared for by Care Together. The carers are efficient, but also kind, gentle, considerate and it really is a pleasure having them. They also always come at the time stated. One can always be sure of that. They deserve the utmost praise and I do thank them so much for making it possible for me to carry on living in my own home.

I am very grateful.

Care Together are professional and reliable and of course extremely well trained just as one would expect or hope for. What they add to this perfect caring service is the degree of support to the family as well as the client. They are available at any time and go out of their way to make things as easy as possible at what is a difficult time and they do so with grace and good humour when appropriate I cannot recommend them enough.

I have a carer for one hour twice a week. They are very personable and efficient in a friendly way.

They are also proactive in finding outside activities for my mother to enjoy and escort her to. A wonderful and delightful company to deal with.

Care Together is an extremely professional agency who have supported my mother and ourselves as a family for the past three years. All the carers were professional and competent and gained mum's trust very quickly. The managers were always on hand to answer queries and offer advice and went the extra mile to help.

This is a highly organised and caring service. The staff are polite, friendly and competent. They are prompt, reliable and advertise any changes in advance. Careful monitoring of all aspects of care is undertaken and we cannot fault these lovely people. It is a real "family" atmosphere amongst them.

My mother was initially hostile to the idea of any outside help provided to her in her home but now has nothing but praise for Care Together. The first visit to ascertain her needs was very sensitively handled, and put my mother completely at ease, and the allocated helper has been a great success. The decision to set aside 15 minutes at the end of the session for a friendly chat, has helped enormously to combat loneliness and provide a new friend outside her family.

Enjoyable to get a visitor.
