Carers Trust Mid Yorkshire

My husband thoroughly enjoys his days at the 'club' they do games and he likes talking to the other people there. I know he is safe while attending and it helps me greatly too and gives me free time which is most appreciated.

The reviewer was very polite and informative. Answered all questions put to her.

They can't do enough to support us both and I am happy knowing he is in good hands .

We are very satisfied with the service we get to help care for mum.

Would recommend to anyone - they are not strangers visiting they become a friend and a good friend at that!

We have a pleasant young lady comes on Thursday pm for 2 hours to care for Alan. He enjoys her visits and she looks after him well.

My mum really enjoys going out with her carer. Her carer is very good at taking my mum out and about in the community. This gives me a carers rest which I really appreciate. So we both also have a break from each other which supports our relationship. Mum receives 4hrs care for free which is fantastic because I know not all local authorities provide this care. Thank you for providing mum with a support worker that really makes my mum laugh.

The carer is very pleasant and interacts well with my father. If mum needs any help she is always helpful & willing.

We find nothing is too much for the carer supplied. She is very helpful and caring.

I was very happy to leave him in caring, capable hands. I was confident to leave him and so was able to go out and have some me time.

I have always found the centre to be welcoming to their clients. Staff display enthusiasm in accepting clients, nothing is too much trouble for them, making the few hours they are there an enjoyable experience. It's a pleasure to have my wife attend the centre because she enjoys going.

My mum, Joan attends day care twice a week and looks forward to it each time. I know she is well looked after and it gives me a break from caring for her (she lives with me) she has mixed dementia and all her needs are met with care and professionalism. The staff are always friendly and welcoming and I am more than happy with the service they provide for my mum.

My husband attends Carers Trust once a week. It gives him the opportunity to connect with others outside of the family environment. It's a very welcoming environment and gives us an opportunity to take just a little time out for myself for hair appointments etc without having to worry and feeling secure that he is being taken care of appropriately. The staff are great and provide a warming atmosphere, coupled with a 'bit of banter'. Very reassuring!

I love bringing my husband to this warm, welcoming environment. He has been happy and settled here from the start. The girls are genuine & caring & I always drive away happily knowing he is well looked after. I feel lucky to have this facility - thank you.

She also helped me when I needed to go for my appointments as I would not be able to leave my wife alone.

During our time receiving respite hours via Carers Trust we have found our support worker extremely reliable and engaging. Would recommend the services offered. We are sad that the rules have changed and we are now not eligible for this valuable and essential service.

Service has been excellent. Our current carer has gone out of her way to help us. The carer shows initiative and provides a range of activity for the client. At all times the carers have been good and they come regularly. When a substitute is provided these are often passive and not trusted by client. Management has been helpful with the odd blip. On the whole they service provided has given a lifeline to the client.

It's a pleasure to have my husband attend the centre because he enjoys going, and as a carer, I feel just as valued by the staff of the day.

I have found excellent care & kindness with the lady who comes once a week to take me out. She is always cheerful and I wish I could afford to have her more days.

The carers staff are unfailingly kind and cheerful. However because of cuts three excellent staff have left or been redeployed which has confused my husband. The cut in hours, explained as a minor change by management means that effectively sessions are now 3 1/2 hours long instead of four, and the hard-working staff have lost money. I would have considered a rise in charges.
