Review from Marion S (Daughter of Client) published on 5 May 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
When my father needed full time care, after multiple hospital stays, Libertas didn't just step in, they stepped up. Highly professional and efficient, yet with a warm feeling of extended family.
The back up from the highly skilled and experienced management team, supporting the live-in carer was exceptional in helping us navigate the immense difficulties we faced over the last six months.
I felt totally supported in my efforts to do the best for my Dad and they were compassionate and helpful on all levels, listening to my fears and feelings of guilt and helplessness, offering practical solutions (and hugs) to ease my worries, as well as Dad's.
If it wasn't for Libertas I don't think I would have got through it all without a breakdown and Dad was able to get his wish to be at home for his last days.

Care is costly no matter which way you turn but when you consider the extended team support and peace of mind Libertas offers, their services are well worth the fee.

Libertas provided me with daily homecare visits for over a year. I cannot praise them highly enough. The carers and management have become friends. They are always on time and go above and beyond often doing more than contracted to do. Always maintaining dignity and care in everything. You are kept fully informed at all times. I cannot fault them in anyway. If only all care companies were like libertas

Overall Experience

We can highly recommend Libertas Care Ltd for the provision of home care. My parents really enjoy seeing the carers who visit twice a week. They provide supportive help for my father's mixed dementia and also assist my mother in looking after my father and helping out with planning weekly meal plans. Additionally Libertas provide me with confidence that there is caring oversight for my parents needs which is invaluable since I live at the other end of the country. I am confident that if my parents health or wellbeing were to change, Libertas would inform me straight away and we would be able to develop an appropriate solution.

Review from Susan V (Daughter of Client) published on 31 October 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My mum had been living with me for some years and although fiercely independent in many ways, she was becoming increasingly reliant on me. As she approached 98, it became clear we needed more physical support. How fortunate we were that Libertas could step in. A huge burden was lifted when the super team helped us to come to terms with my mum's end of life. Getting her up and going to bed, coming out immediately to cope with falls and following guidance from the District Nurses (massive thanks to them too), and always at the end of the phone, nothing was too much trouble. Although it was imminent, my mum died unexpectedly, late one evening. I will forever be grateful to the Manager for being at the end of the phone for that long night.

Definitely five stars - and make them gold.

Review from Sarah C (Daughter of Client) published on 12 March 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I cannot praise the carers and staff at Libertas highly enough. They have cared for my mum beautifully - often going way beyond what they needed to do.
They all spent lots of time chatting to Mum and making sure she is happy and everything is done how she would like. I can honestly say they have become very good friends to her.
If ever she needed any extra help someone would always step in, even at the last minute.
Both me and my sister lived quite a distance today, and knowing that Mum had such excellent care every day was immensely reassuring.

Thanks to them Mum was able to be at home until she was 91.

Overall Experience

As both myself and my brother live a long way from our mum, aged 91, Libertas have been helping her, for a few years now. What an amazing find for mum and us. Fantastic service, caring, professional, and helpful, we are extremely grateful for everything they do for mum, keeping us in the loop with regular updates. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to others. Always at the end of the phone, they are kind, understanding and helpful; nothing is too much trouble, sometimes going above and beyond with what they do for us. In fact they have almost become part of the family. We can't thank them enough for the reassurance they give us regarding mum's care and needs.

Review from Stephen B (Son of Client) published on 11 January 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

The quality of Libertas Care starts with the office team, which is always approachable, accommodating and reliable. Care was provided initially for my mother, in challenging circumstances, and most recently for my father. The relationship has been continuous for over 5 years, with faultless attendance records, consistently excellent care standards, and most importantly the same faces providing the care. A highly recommended care provider.

I cannot speak highly enough about the support, care, and friendliness we have received from the staff at Libertas. They have helped us out so much over the last few months in respect of our dad. Our dad loves all of the staff as they are so kind and caring.

Overall Experience

Libertas Care took over caring for a friend of mine after a discharge to assess team then another private company. The expectation I had from the previous carers was not very high and when Libertas took over I was overwhelmed by their standards, real caring nature and all the things they would do above and beyond any of the other care teams taking most of the responsibility away from me as a friend to the client. The relief to me was overwhelming to know that my friend was in such good hands.

Overall Experience

The team have been completely wonderful. The genuine care and concern they showed towards my father went far beyond anything we had expected. He was treated as if he was a member of their own family. He loved their daily visits and enjoyed their company. For me, having Libertas involved meant a safe pair of hands I could rely on and I knew they would report even the slightest concern back to me. Communication was excellent throughout, phone calls were always answered and emails were replied to straight away. I can recommend Libertas wholeheartedly.

My family are extremely lucky to have Libertas in Crewkerne looking after our elderly dementia-challenged mum. The dedication and care given to our mum by the whole team from the management down is really exceptional and is a massive endorsement and reflection of all that is great in the care system. All staff are positive, caring, responsive and effective and incredibly patient. All that you could ask or hope for!
