Premier were excellent. Always reliable. Staff were excellent. They went above and beyond and understood our situation. All services were of excellent standard and empathy was afforded to both my mother and myself. Highly recommend.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My wife who is suffering the effects of Vascular Dementia returned home a few months ago, being unable do anything for herself, therefore Premier Care were engaged to provide the necessary care package to allow her to live at home. From the onset, their Management team were so considerate in making
sure each time of day the carers were to come suited me.
The carers themselves treat my wife as if they were caring for a family member in a very gentle and compassionate way, making sure she is clean, well dressed and comfortable, all the time encouraging her with conversation and laughter. They also care for myself, every morning asking if I am well, or have any problems. Rather than rush off they will sit and chat for a while.
Just recently it was necessary to request an additional visit each late afternoon. Without hesitation and within 24 hours Premier Care had provided the carer at the requested timed.
I would not hesitate in recommending Premier Care Services.

The service offered has been regular and professional. The nurses have all been friendly and helpful. I am 93 and cannot take much part in the care of my wife; she has advanced Alzheimer's, does not recognise me or respond to me.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Premier Care lived up to their name completely. They provided premier care. The carers were consistently attentive and kind, they performed tasks efficiently but not in a hurried way. Mum felt very comfortable with them as she got to know them - despite her memory problems - as the ladies were people
she could relate to. Premier ensured that there was only a small pool of ladies to help Mum even though they provided care up to three times a day. I trusted them completely. Their rates were competitive and billing accurate. My main reason for recommending Premier would be that communication was excellent. They called me regularly with updates and by the same token, I never felt that I was being a nuisance when I called them. A caring company, which demonstrated good, old-fashioned values - perfect for my elderly Mum.

Review from Sheila T (Daughter of Client) published on 23 October 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Initially Premier carried out a 'risk assessment' of client needs, I was present at the time. This was important to ensure that my father's needs and mine were to be met. I have personally met the Carers or spoken to them on the phone, they leave a folder detailing their actions during the visit and
you can also communicate with them this way. You can phone the Office if you want any changes to the visit. My father feels comfortable with his Carers and if there are any concerns they will ring you or the Office will. I am confident that he is being well cared for and that he is safe in their care. He is now visited twice a day and this is a great comfort to me. They have proven to be a reliable and professional service. I fully recommend them.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Premier Care looked after my mother for several months before unfortunately, she became too poorly to remain in her own home. The Carers treated her with the utmost dignity and respect, they were wonderfully supportive and understanding of her needs, nothing was too much trouble for them. I cannot
fault them, Mum loved each and every one of them. There aren’t enough words to describe how impressed we were with their service. They made sure she was safe, comfortable and looked after her personal needs as if she was one of their own. The staff are truly a credit to the company. We can never thank you all enough for what you did for Mum, you are all stars and you should be mightily proud of the part you play in vulnerable people’s lives. Thank you all from the bottom of our hearts.

Premier Care Services have cared for my mother for three years and during this time I have had every confidence in their caring and professional services. My mother always thought the carers were her friends and it was all the little extras that made all the difference.
I would highly recommend Premier
Care Services to anyone who requires any caring services.

Each member of the team from the office staff to the daily carers are polite, caring, considerate, patient, friendly, respectful and accommodating. It's a great comfort to know how well my mother-in-law is being cared for on a daily basis with her personal needs.
One regular carer, in particular, is
exceptional in all respects.

Staff are very caring overall with a few exceptional ones. Going above and beyond on many occasions. In the past, we had occasional problems getting hold of the office on the phone. Also, would have appreciated some consultation and explanation before fee increases were implemented.
Reply from John Young, Operations Director at Premier Care Services EG Ltd

We do appreciate that on the odd occasion the landline can't be answered due to being either on another call or the office staff and Management are out attending reviews, spot checks, supervisions and the occasional emergency, however, we do have an answering machine, duty mobile and a company email as back up. With reference to fee increases, all our clients are informed by email or letter beforehand.

All carers are kind, patient, caring and reliable. They are always extremely respectful of both needs and feelings and also our home and property. They provide an invaluable service enabling my father to remain in his own home with his family. Also, advice and support to all family members when needed.

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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.927 for Premier Care Services EG Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (166 Excellents x 5) + (13 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 179 Ratings = 4.927

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Premier Care Services EG Ltd is based on 30 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
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Home Care Provider does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
