Review from A L (Daughter of Client) published on 5 May 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Our mum is 86 years old and has no short term memory but other than this she is able to care for herself with the families support.
We have carers go in twice a day for 30 minutes, to predominantly just chat to mum and then check she has taken her medication.
This half an hour of one to one conversation, twice a day is invaluable.
The carers have taken the time to get to know my mum and enjoy listening to her retell stories of her past and family.
This is an essential part of why we have been able to keep my mum living in her own home.
Yes, sometime we have had small issues, but they have always been responded to very quickly and sorted out immediately by the office management, who are really great. Reviews are constantly done to reassess your care package and to check that you are happy with everything.

I would thoroughly recommend the Caremark team at Dunmow.

Overall Experience

Cannot thank Caremark enough for looking after Mum. After two falls one after another and two major operations the care, assistance, and making Mum feel comfortable have been excellent. The language barrier has been the hardest battle for Mum but the careers have all managed to communicate with an online translator and have made Mum laugh and put her at ease although she was in a lot of pain. We will miss you all a great bunch of honest and caring people. The management has been quick in organising sitting care for Mum and has helped us out in such difficult times when we could not take any time off from work, 3 members of staff, in particular, thank you for your understanding and the support you have had in our regards.

Reply from Tanya George, Managing Director at Caremark Great Dunmow

It has been our pleasure to support your mother. We are all delighted that she is now well enough to return to her own home. We send our very best wishes to you all. Buona salute e felicit.

Overall Experience

We are extremely satisfied with the care given to my husband. The carers are all friendly, efficient and willing to do whatever is requested. We are so satisfied with the care received that when my husband was last in hospital, we requested Caremark. The hospital said they couldn't guarantee them and his discharge was delayed by four days until we managed to get them.

They blow-dry my hair, are very caring and give me nice showers. They chat and provide lovely food and take extra care to make it look nice. It makes me feel safe and means I know my family are able to not worry and have help looking after me.

Overall Experience

We have been receiving care for my father from Caremark for several months and are very impressed and grateful for the care that he receives. Caring for my dad can be challenging, as he has dementia, but Caremark carers carry out his personal care very professionally and compassionately. What sets the carers above other companies is the warmth and good humour of many of the staff. They take the time to chat to Mum and get her smiling. The team leaders do a really excellent job. We look forward to seeing them! A big thank you from us all. One of the carers is wonderful too!

Overall Experience
The care my husband received from the carers was brilliant. They were all so lovely and made him and myself feel really supported.
On one occasion after my husband left hospital, we were given carers from a different company, the standard of their care made us realise how brilliant Caremark were and fortunately we're able to return to Caremark.

I can’t praise them enough.

Reply from Michael George, Director at Caremark Great Dunmow

Thank you so much for your kind words. The carers always reported back to us how much they enjoyed caring for Brian. He was a pleasure to look after and well respected. We hope he continues to improve and we would love to have updates on how things are going in the future.

Review from Andrew J (Grandson of Client) published on 18 June 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Hello all - I just wanted to drop you a review to let you know of our sincere gratitude for all that you did for Grandad. Even in his last few days, everyone treated him with the utmost love, care and dignity. Not only that nothing was too much trouble and everyone always checked to see how I was doing and whether there was anything they could do for me.
We especially want to say a huge thank you to the caregivers for the constant support over these last eight months, nothing was ever too much trouble in terms of getting Grandad the support he needed and putting our minds at ease.

As a care company, each and every one of you, do just this and it shows each and every day how much you do really care. For this, my wife and I will be eternally grateful to you all.

Reply from Tanya George, Managing Director at Caremark Great Dunmow

Thank you for your kind words. It was a pleasure to support your grandfather, he was such a gentleman, whom everyone was fond of. He had such a supportive family, and it was so clear how proud he was of you all. He spoke of his enjoyment of art and music, but most of all he spoke of his family, and...

Overall Experience
The carers are all of a pleasing disposition, ready and willing to carry out tasks allotted to them. Over the course of time, as the carers became accustomed to my ways, they would carry out routine tasks without a word from me, especially in the morning! Altogether, it was a pleasure to have them about me.

(I chose to put 'good' rather than 'excellent' apart from one case - the latter is seldom achieved in this world).

I started Caremark (Chelmsford & Uttlesford) in 2010, and have worked tirelessly alongside my team to build a service we are all proud of.

We will all face a time when we need a little help; maybe for someone we love, or maybe for ourselves. At that time we would all hope the people we turn to treat us with kindness and respect. Having witnessed the difference positive care can make, I am determined that we will strive every day to support our clients to live lives that matter.

Julie Chipperfield Job Title: Care Manager Joined: 2019
Julie Chipperfield

I have worked in the care sector for over 30 years I have gained a wealth of experience. I started my journey working within Domiciliary Care as a care and support worker fitting it in around my young family, and this then led to a full-time job as a Care Manager. Through this role I quickly learnt that there are many other facets to the care sector and decided to expand my care knowledge, working in the fields of Domestic Abuse, Children Support Services, Adults with Learning Needs, NVQ Assessor in Health & Social Care, Domestic Abuse Services and finally back to the Domiciliary Care Sector. I continue to be passionate about the quality of care delivered to vulnerable people and will always promote this within my roles.

Callum Porter Job Title: Senior Care Coordinator Joined: 2020
Callum Porter

Since 2014 I have been providing a high standard of care to not only my clients but my staff too. In the years I have worked in the care industry I have been very passionate about building a successful career for myself and Caremark have given me the opportunity to see this through. I chose to start my career path in the care industry because I feel that making a difference in someone else’s life, makes a difference to my life. Since I was young I have always wanted to do that little bit more for people and in the care industry you most certainly can achieve this, I do believe this is why I am where I am today. Building a good relationship with my carers, clients and their families is most important to me as I believe it is vital to keep them communicating with each other as much as possible. This way, together, we can provide a service that supports them personally to meet their individual needs.
