My son has been a client with Crossroads Care Gloucestershire for the last 15 years. During that time, all of the staff and everyone at the above have been considerate, kind and understanding. Nothing is too much, they have gone out of their way to support us and listen to our problems when alone and
a big thank you for everything.

My wife was cared for by the carer and myself/my daughter.
My wife passed on 10th August 2024.
So, becoming a widower the same carer continued to support myself.
She has been excellent at slowly but surely bringing me back from a terrible experience.
Care, understanding & empathy - thank you.

We are very happy with the service provided for Mum. My mum attends the Daglingworth Day Centre once a week on Tuesdays. She comes home with lots of fun stories and sounds like she really has a good time there. The staff are professional and communicative. They provide feedback on her well being and
keep us aware if they have any concerns. They are very good with her medication regime and record accurately and check on any discrepancies. Thank you so much for the respite we get in knowing she's well looked after.

My husband has attended the Azalea Club Day Centre for the last few months and has enjoyed meeting new people and taking part in different activities. It is beneficial to both of us that he is able to take part on his own and contributes to maintaining independence. Thank you.

My husband thoroughly enjoys his days at the Azalea Club. He said it's better than just sitting in his chair sleeping! He suffers from Alzheimers and doesn't remember what he's done during the day but knows he was happy. He comes home clutching his art work which we proudly display until the following
week. I went to the club the first day my husband went and came away very impressed.

My husband has Alzheimer's. He really enjoys going to the Azalea Club Daglingworth. The staff are excellent, always cheerful and full of fun. They do a variety of activities with the clients and I really like that they take them out sometimes. My husband enjoys being outside.

My wife first joined the Azaela Day Club at the beginning of November last year. At first was not very keen on going to start with, from about the third visit, she was quite happy to attend, but when I wanted to collect her, she didn't want to come home. The staff are all brilliant and welcoming, but
have never offered me a lunch!!

My Father has reeived care from 'Crossroads Care' for a couple of years. The carers have all been amazing in their support towards him. From the way they spoke, with kindness and compassion, to understanding his needs and providing him with company. The day club worked wonders for him. He always enjoyed
it, and was more cheerful on his return. In the office, all staff have always been very supportive, compassionate and thoughtful. Crossroads Care undoubtedly deserve their 'Outstanding' rating by the Care Quality Commision. They really do care and wholeheartedly recommend them.

My husband has dementia and came to Crossroads Care on the advice of a friend. My husband loved going to Crossroads Care. He quickly made friends with all the others, including both sexes. He was very happy there, laughed a lot and made others laugh. He made things and enjoyed all the activities. The
staff were wonderful with him, always happy to see him and make him feel very welcome. He also enjoyed helping in the kitchen. Thank you for looking after him so well.

The service from Crossroads has been invaluable. It's turned what was fast becoming an unsustainable, impossible situation, into one where I had some time to decompress, make sense of things and be able to organise extra support. The ability to add in extra hours to enable me to attend, for example,
hospital appointments for myself, has been especially useful. The carers are punctual, courteous and very supportive.

The day centre opened two months ago. It is outstanding in every respect.
From the initial meeting with one staff member in particular to mum attending the day centre every Monday, everything has been superb.
The group who attend are a mixed bunch. There are people with disabilities, some have mild
to moderate dementia (still living independently) and some are just lonely.
The Azalea club has a minibus so they pick mum up and take her home afterwards. She is provided with a host of tailor-made activities, which are varied and fun. There is a morning coffee and a home cooked lunch (excellent!). The staff are all very kind and interested in all who attend. There is a camaraderie which is lovely to see.
Mum has thrived since attending, becoming much more engaged and sociable and looks forward to the club.
I am a local Doctor and am well aware of what good care looks like and these guys have nailed it. I highly recommend the Azalea club.

Reply from Helen Baker, Chief Executive Officer at Crossroads Care Gloucestershire

The carer chosen for my wife (who has dementia) has been an absolute God send. She treats her more as a friend, than a carer and each week my wife really looks forward to her visit. They either walk or drive into the local town for coffee and cake, and potter around many of the charity shops in the
high street. Without fail, my wife always returns to our home with a huge beaming smile on her face. It might only be 3 hours each week, but it's 3 hours that she absolutely loves, and allow myself a break to do a few chores I otherwise couldn't do.

Excellent care respite service, which allows me to 'escape' for 3 hours each week to do errands outside the home environment
The carer provides consistent and reliable support and company for my husband while I'm out. She is always cheerful and ready to chat, and helps me by tackling my ironing!

It is a huge relief to me to have professional care workers assisting my Mother with various personal needs and freeing me from some of the tasks.
The staff are all friendly, efficient and reliable.

I don't know how I could possibly manage without them. I know I can rely on them completely if I need help with anything at all. They are always cheerful and brighten my day. I feel very lucky to have them.

My husband uses the day club and really enjoys it. They are kind, helpful and promote his mental health with activities and social interaction, which is important when you have dementia. Crating activities are also a bonus and they always include timely activities/crafts throughout the year.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.852)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.852) out of 10 for Crossroads Care Gloucestershire is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 25 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 25 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Home Care Provider is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.852 for Crossroads Care Gloucestershire is calculated as follows: ( (128 Excellents x 5) + (20 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 149 Ratings = 4.852

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows: 3 points for the first Positive Review, 2 points in total for each of the next 9 Positive Reviews (1st = 3, 2nd = 0.5, 3rd = 0.5, 4th = 0.25, 5th = 0.25, 6th = 0.1, 7th = 0.1, 8th = 0.1, 9th = 0.1, 10th = 0.1)

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Crossroads Care Gloucestershire is based on 25 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 5

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Home Care Provider does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
