I cannot recommend Family Homecare enough, all staff are friendly and helpful. My mum has been using the services of Family Homecare since 2021, initially having one carer twice a day and currently two carers four times a day. The carers are very attentive, kind, considerate and respectful. If there are any problems with Mum I am informed straight away. Mum has spent time on and off in hospital recently, care has always been reinstated immediately when requested putting my mind at ease.
Thank you so much for your kind words. We really do appreciate it.
The client and I are very happy with the manner of care received. As I live with the client, I take on the majority of her care but it's a lot of my responsibility knowing that she will be thoroughly washed given the amount of time she spends in bed these days. Admittedly the service has gotten a little more expensive of late (hasn't everything though?); but familiarity with an individual carer and knowing the professional and reliable team behind her, makes for a good all round experience when visiting my mother.
Thank you for your such kind words! I am absolutely sure our team will continue with our standards.
They are kind and caring and very reliable.
Dad sees the same few carers on a regular basis, which really helps seeing as he suffers from dementia. If I have any concerns they are always easy to get hold of and most helpful in sorting out any problems that may arise.
I can thoroughly recommend Family Homecare to anyone looking for care for their loved one.
Thank you very much for your such kind words! I am sure we will continue with our standards.
I have been with Family Homecare for some time and all the ladies who care for me are without exception, respectful, caring and treat me with dignity. I cannot fault any of the carers provided by Family Homecare Ltd. The management is very good and easily contactable if needs be. My overall opinion of Family Homecare is of a well-run company, with a very caring and excellent number of ladies.
Thank you so much for your kind words. We really do appreciate it.
I have always had very good and kind help from all the staff. They do an excellent job - cheerfully even when very difficult. Thank you for all of them but please train new members more so that don't get offended or leave clients irritated because they have no idea how to help us. Thanks for all your support - God bless you all.
Thank you for your kind words. All of our carers are trained to a high standard. They are also sent to clients with a senior carer for a week or more (depending on staff experience) so they can shadow train, which in most cases is enough time for them to find out what the job entails. However, we...
My wife has been bedbound for a considerable time now. Carers from Family Homecare come each day to wash and change her. Unless they encounter problems with an earlier client they are always very punctual, if they do have a rare problem, we usually get a call from the office to make us aware. Other than during sickness or holiday seasons the carers who attend to my wife are the same people. Over time we have got to know them quite well. They chat about their families and what they have been doing and we have a very good relationship. They are very kind, gentle and thorough when dealing with my wife and she thinks very highly of them I have no hesitation in recommending Family Homecare
The Family homecare carers have always been professional and gone out of their way to help when my father had problems. They would make suggestions to improve things for my father and always were accommodating to his needs. Thanks to them my father went from not wanting carers and complaining to not minding at all. There were a few times when I arrived at my father's flat and and a carer was already there and hadn't seen me yet and I could hear they were chatting to him nicely and being friendly.
Thanks to all at Family Homecare for the help over the past few years
Thank you so much for your kind words! I am so glad we made a difference in his life!
Over the past year my mother has had a carer from Family Homecare and since discharge from the hospital in October 2023 has had two carers four times a day visiting her at home. The care given has been good with carers attending on time and on the rare occasions where there was a staffing difficulty the family were warned in ample time in advance. The care included looking after my mother who had become doubly incontinent, moving her from the bed to a chair and vice versa with a hoist and assistance with feeding. The carers were good at noticing and recording potential problems in advance and ensuring the District Nurse attended before the potential problem became a real problem. I would specifically like to thank three carers who showed great concern with my mother and ensured a high level of Care. Family Homecare also made it possible for my mother to be cared for in her own home in familiar surroundings, well done Family Homecare.
Thank you so much! Our team is dedicated to their clients and I am so glad they made changes in the best possible way!
I have had experience with other care companies and I can honestly say that the staff at Family Homecare are wonderful and as a company are the very best I have come across. My mother-in-law has been cared for by a team of carers who have taken such excellent care of all her needs with kindness and always with a smile. As a family, we could not have asked for more. Thank you all so very much and in particular, the three carers who regularly looked after my mum-in-law; you are amazing, and I will never forget what wonderful, kind and caring people you are thank you.
Family Homecare looked after our mother providing care, initially twice a day to four times a day. Prior to using Family Homecare, we had used two other care companies, everything about Family Homecare excelled in comparison. The carers are sincere, kind, thoughtful and enjoy what they do. They are positive, smile and brought happiness on their visits. If they noticed anything about our mother they would bring it to our attention, i.e. what would make her life better, or to food she liked or didn't enjoy. Any sign of an issue would contact the District Nurse to visit. Looked to prevent before an issue arose. Reliable, carers always turned up, no issues throughout the years we dealt with them. The carers are excellent and so too is their office. Easy, friendly to deal with. Contactable outside office hours via phone, text and email. Responding in a quick efficient manner. If you are looking for a good, caring company to look after a loved one, I would highly recommend Family Homecare.
Thank you very much for your kind words! It was a pleasure to look after your mum!
They are adaptable to my changing needs on a daily basis. Whether it be personal care, food preparation, housework or even having a chat when I feel lonely and sad, they are happy to adjust it to what I require at every visit.
The office have always been approachable to discuss changes to my care package. I have never felt rushed or like they want to get off the phone urgently!
They are very understanding when it comes to my nutty rescue dogs and always make sure to give them cuddles and ensure their needs are met too!
After a bad experience with a previous company, I honestly couldn't ask for anything more from Family Homecare.
Thank you so much for such kind words! It would mean a lot to me if our staff made some positive changes in your life. Kindest regards.

An incredible asset to the company!
I cannot imagine our office without very helpful staff!
I started work at Family Homecare in 2011, for what was a small team of dedicated carers.
In the twelve years I have been here the company has grown and flourished.
Led by a caring Manager the office staff and carers are all so helpful, considerate and really do care.
We treat our Service users as we ourselves and our families would wish to be treated.
I enjoy my role as a Carer, whether it be household duties, personal care or just a chat when I close their door I know I've made a difference to our Service user's lives.
