My mum has MS, Dementia & had a bad stroke. Eden County Care visit her & my dad 4 times a day. They are our life-line and have become our friends. My mum sadly can't move or talk properly and they are amazing at understanding her needs and being Company for my dad. There has been heavy snow / flooding in town situations yet they still manage too make the calls on foot or with their wings as we believe that they are angels in discuise = totally commited we are very lucky too have these amazing people in our lives.

Although individual staff who cared for my parent were very kind and friendly, on occasions they did things that were not in accordance of their own policies and procedures, and actually went against national care standards, (for example, preparing food in a non certified premises). Not only could these things have resulted in my parent's health being compromised, but they did unnecessarily negatively impact in my relationship with him, and these things should NEVER have been done in the first place. I never actually received a satisfactory explanation of what actions had been taken, after this breach of food hygiene had occurred. My parent recently died, and, although I did receive a reply to the text message I sent to notify them of the death (I was too shocked to feel able to speak to anyone). I may be being a little naive, but, I feel a condolence card, or note from them might have been nice. It has left me feeling rather upset. Perhaps kindness costs to them!

We were saddened to hear of your parent's death. Our thoughts are with you and your family, and we appreciate your kind words about the carers who supported them. We understand why you were concerned when a carer brought in a meal she had made at home. She wanted to do something kind, but it was not appropriate, and we addressed it with her at the time. We should have explained more clearly to you what we had done and listened more closely to how the incident had affected you.
We know that care is about the trust families place in us, as well as the support we give each day. We are grateful to have been part of your parent's care, and we are sorry that our communication left you feeling otherwise.
Overall, I've been really impressed by the service from ECC. The managers are always willing to discuss any problems and come up with sensible solutions, even when these in no way relate to any lack of service. All of the staff and carers that I've met have been friendly and helpful, although some...
I'm also very grateful for the willingness of staff to go above and beyond what they're contracted to deliver, as and when my dad might experience a small emergency at home. I'm far more relaxed about the whole business of organising suitable care for dad than I'd ever thought I might be - and that's largely down to ECC.
I find the care company very good staff are very polite and very helpful and knowledgeable they care for my husband and I have had no major issues with them they are very good in what they do they keep me informed at all times

Great company to deal with. Very accommodating with changing care needs and great staff. My mother really appreciates the flexibility of the staff in terms of their duties and the care and support she needs on different days.

Many elderly people rely on routine, so last-minute changes can be particularly difficult. Visits have sometimes been cancelled at short notice due to staff sickness or annual leave, causing significant disruption for those who depend on support with essential daily tasks.
Most carers we encountered were professional, competent and treated clients with dignity, respect and empathy. However, some appeared to lack the necessary training or skills for certain aspects of their role.
In our view, the main issues lie with management and organisation rather than frontline staff. Communication can be poor, responses to concerns are often slow, and issues were not always handled with the compassion expected from a care provider. Overall, our experience doesn't reflect the reviews here

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry that your experience did not meet your expectations.We understand the importance of reliable care, consistent carers and clear communication. However, we also have a responsibility to protect our staff. During this care package, several carers raised concerns about how they had been treated and told us they no longer felt able to attend, which affected our ability to provide consistent staffing.
We tried to find a workable way forward, but unfortunately this was not possible. We cannot discuss individual circumstances publicly, but the situation was more complex than the review suggests.
We are pleased that you found most of our carers professional, competent and compassionate, and we will reflect carefully on the feedback provided.

We would highly recommend the company and it's staff.
The girls who visit 5 times a week are 100% professional and extremely hard working. Nothing is too much trouble.
We consider all the carers as friends.
I would reconsider Eden Country Care to anyone.

Setting up and organising my mother's home care was made easy through discussion and assessment of needs with the care team manager, my mother was involved throughout this process.
Thank you so much for your lovely review. It is so nice to hear your positive comments about the team and also the positive impact the visits are having for your Mum.Kindest regards,CM

We have been using Eden Country Care Ltd for my mother for many months now. The staff always seem friendly, efficient and reliable; and my mother speaks highly of them. The leading carer has provided me with her mobile phone number, which means we can easily liaise if either of us needs to discuss an issue arising. This is especially useful given that I am remote from my mother's house whereas the care team is local. They were particularly helpful when I was abroad this month and nevertheless able to respond to changes in my mother's needs at short notice. We would recommend Eden Country Care!
Many thanks for taking the time to write a review of our services. It is lovely to hear such positive feedback about the care team and the service we provide.Thanks again, CM

I've been using Eden Country Carers a few months now, but my experience has been an excellent one & I can't thank them enough! The staff are always lovely & friendly, punctual, helpful & supportive & nothing is ever too much trouble for them. They treat me with dignity & respect in my own home, which is important as a mum with a young one at home as my son feels comfortable around the staff as well. The highlight of my day is often seeing a friendly face and being helped to live happily within my own space again. They help me prepare meals - something I missed doing & to access the community again. They also help with personal care & to keep my home clean & tidy.
Their help has meant that I now have more energy to be present with my family - something I wanted from using this service - & in a few months I've gone from feeling like I'm barely managing to exist, to feeling like I am starting to live & get some of my life back again. A huge thank you to you all!

If I could give Eden country care 10 stars I would, the care, support and compassion the team have shown to my mum is above and beyond more than I ever expected. All the team treated my mum with dignity and respect. Nothing is ever too much trouble for them. Over a short space of time mum build a special relationship with her care team. The office staff are always available to support and help especially with sorting out hospital issues. It takes special people to become carers and Eden country care are able to provide an outstanding service. I am so grateful to all concerned.

Dad is impressed by the standard of care and the efficiency and good timekeeping of the carers. He said they always greet him with a smile and manage to find time to chat.
This is a competent care service and we would have no hesitation in recommending them to others considering care at home.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. I am so pleased that you and Dad are happy with the service we are providing.
They have been nothing but thoughtful, respectful and caring. They are never rushed and take their time to help Mum when she is finding it difficult.

Eden Country Care has been extremely supportive in caring for my mother for the last year. Having suffered a major stroke my mum has required extra support with shopping etc. which has been accommodated. The staff are very kind and work very hard in at times difficult circumstances.

Eden Country Care cared for my nana for over a year. The carers who came in and visited her were amazing.

I would highly recommend Eden Country Care to anyone looking for care for their loved ones. All of the staff, carers and managers went above and beyond to support us and in particular my nana. We will be forever grateful for their support.

The carers always enter my daughter's home with a smile and a cheery hello and greeting. They are considerate about her privacy and modesty and always treat her with respect. I have never heard them talk about other staff or clients this maintaining privacy. They are very good at record keeping and following protocol.
Thank you for taking time to give such a positive review of our care team.

As a Registered Manager, I oversee the management of our team. My name is Colette and I work closely with the NHS and Cumbria County Council to ensure that people who leave the hospital receive private nursing care in the comfort of their own homes.
Personally, I have experienced the challenges of caring for a loved one with MS and dementia. It's a difficult and emotional journey, but it has given me valuable insights that help me support our clients with compassion and understanding. I truly understand the importance of good quality home care services, as I have seen the positive impact they can have firsthand.
One of my passions is making sure our clients' preferences and wishes are taken into account when they first join our service and during subsequent reviews of their care. I maintain contact with clients and am always available for a chat to discuss any aspect of their care. It brings me great satisfaction to help our clients live comfortably and with dignity in the comfort of their own home.

I've worked at Eden Country Care for more than 15 years and have gained experience as a home carer, senior carer and care coordinator. I now support the care manager in her role and have recently gained my Level 5 Diploma in Care Management. I can offer you practical advice on getting care and support, and I'm always available if you need support when the care has started.
I now look for opportunities to engage our clients in social activities within the local communities we serve.

Prior to joining Eden Country Care, I worked as a teaching assistant for children with special educational needs, which sparked my passion for supporting others. This led me to apply for a role as a Home Carer, even though it was a significant departure from my previous work.
Initially, I was nervous about providing personal care, but with the guidance of experienced carers, my anxieties were soon alleviated. I have now accumulated eight years of experience working with a diverse range of clients, from young adults with Multiple Sclerosis to older adults with frailty.
Throughout my tenure, I completed Health & Social Care Diplomas at Levels 2-5 and consistently put myself forward for promotion when opportunities arose. In 2019, I was appointed Training Manager, and I have relished the opportunity to work with new team members and help them feel at home in their roles.
