I think at one point we were having a problem because the evening call was getting too late. He doesn't like unlocking his door late at night and indeed I've told him to keep his door locked as he is vulnerable.
Thank you for taking the time to review us, we really appreciate your feedback and comments. We are pleased that you are generally very happy with the service received by your uncle but are sorry to hear that he at one point had a few issues with the time of the evening call - please do let us...
All the ladies and men that attend to help my dad shower are lovely and well mannered and enjoy having a 'laugh' with my dad.
The only issue we seem to have is the time that he is sometimes booked in for. I know sometimes it can't be helped when people have phoned in sick but it's not good when he has to sit in his dressing gown till 10.30/11.00 waiting to have his shower.
I do apologise for my mum ringing up to complain about the times, they seem to forget there must be lots of people to sort.
Thank you for taking the time to review us, we really appreciate the feedback received (both positive & negative) to assist us in making future improvements to our services. We are so pleased that you find all staff who attend 'lovely & well mannered' but are sorry to hear that you are sometimes...

So far my mum's only needed carers twice a week for showering. The carers have changed from normal routines to accommodate her needs on different days. They always ask is she needs anything else and let me know if there's any change in her condition or needs anything to make her comfortable. One carer in particular has gone above and beyond to get her doctors appointments when she couldn't get one, made sure she had barrier spray and anything else she needs. I am very grateful to have carers who genuinely care about both me and my mother.
Thank you for taking the time to submit your review, we are so pleased that you find your Mum's carers accommodating and that you feel that they genuinely care... Your feedback will be passed on to the carers concerned as a thank you for all of their hard work. Thanks again for your kind comments!
The carers that come to me are very understanding of my needs. They make me feel at ease and they treat me with respect and I feel I've still got my dignity. They talk to me the whole time they are here and we sometimes have a little joke and that makes my day. Don't know what I'd do without them.

Excellent service that we've had for something like a year now. Thank you to the manager who set the service up. Lovely, regular and well trained staff, so helpful to both my parents. We really have peace of mind, knowing my parents are so well cared for. Staff were so kind and helpful when my dad was in hospital looking after my mum. Excellent service, extremely pleased. Thank you so much.

Overall ok.
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback. It means a lot to us, and your words go a long way in helping others see we really are a service to be proud of.
My service continues to be good. I have 2 regular carers who are highly satisfactory. When they are on holiday or days off, known carers are acceptable and efficient. Obviously better as they become familiar with service user needs.

My mam is delighted with all aspects of the service of Choices Homecare. The carers are all respectful and friendly and sometimes over and above what we expect of the service. Thank you to you all.

My mum has had TLC now for a couple of years she praises her carers and has a good relationship with them both. They always are friendly and compassionate in their work. I have recommended the company to numerous people as I work in healthcare. These girls do a fantastic job.

We are very pleased with the care that my mum gets. Everyone is so kind and caring. After a few initial teething problems, everything is great. In fact, my uncle is moving to you on the 9th of June from his existing care provider. Really like the fact I can see the visits on my emails too. The Manager, Care Coordinator and Assessment and Reviewing Officer have been very efficient with any queries and your carer (think she covers Mum on a regular basis) is always so friendly and caring when I'm over visiting Mum. Many thanks to you all.

Meet the Team (1)
I'm Sarah, a care coordinator covering the Cudworth, Town, Darton, Worsbrough, plus any other areas of Barnsley in between.
I never thought of ever getting into care work until the horrible COVID-19 struck, and I couldn't do my previous job. I felt grounded and needed to get out of the house. I then saw a job for home care and thought I'd give that a go! I fell in love with care so much that I gave up my other job and became a team leader, and then, due to hard work, dedication and transferable skills, I became a care coordinator. I joined Choices due to the positive things I had heard and the career progression that is offered. Since starting, I have never looked back and can't wait to see where this journey will take me.
In my spare time, I love spending time with my beautiful little boy and husband.
