I was treated with care and kindness when very vulnerable and weak. Your carers are encouraging and nothing is too much trouble. I’m always treated with respect and look on my carers with fondness.
Thank you so much for taking the time to give us a review and I am so pleased you're happy with the care you receive at Unicare Devon. John.
They're very friendly and outgoing and care about those in their care above and beyond, they've assisted me on outings where I would have been limited and can't thank and recommend them enough.
We love helping you each week and always enjoy seeing you when you help out in our day centre.
See you soon, and thank you.
No mean feat for anyone but even more so as my friend has cerebral palsy.
The support and care during the lead-up and whilst abroad was amazing and this sort of thing says wonders about the staff and ethos at Unicare Devon.
It was a wonderful trip and to see your friend, Summit Kilimanjaro was amazing.
I hope you are well.
My husband has Alzheimer’s and is also disabled, with the help of Unicare carers and (two in particular) they have helped me to keep my husband at home for as long as possible. My husband is now in full-time residential care but even now members of the Unicare team have made time to visit him at the care home. Can never thank them enough for all their kindness and support going the extra mile.
Thank you for the kind words and it lovely to have made a friend from providing help to your family
John
I cannot thank the Unicare team enough.
Thank you so very much for taking the time to write this, we hope all is well.
I found all the staff that came to the house to care for mum were very caring and thoughtful. Nothing was too much trouble, mum got on really well with all of the staff. It made things so much easier to know that they were coming in to help look after mum. The staff had a laugh with mum, they could put a smile on her face.
Thank you Paul ... I'm sure I'll see you soon.
I am very happy with the service that I receive from this agency. They are very professional and all the carers are brilliant. I only have to ask for help with something and it is done.They are so friendly that they feel more like members of the family.
Hi Jackie we find it a pleasure to see and help you
Speak soon
I am extremely impressed with the professional service my wife receives. The carers are very friendly and nothing is too much trouble. They always make sure that she is happy with everything before they leave and ask if she needs anything else.
Thank you Robert aka razzi bee -- very kind.
An incident happened this week when my brother was suffering from a water infection, unknown to anyone at the time. The carer for that day came to visit and found my brother out of sorts, called us and the office who in turn called his G.P problem solved! It's nice to know he is in safe hands.
Thank you for your kind comments ...
Unicare were so supportive to both my husband and myself. The carers were amazing and ensured that my husband was so well cared for. They even regularly checked that any jobs needed doing for me were done. I am so very thankful to both the carers and the office team for looking after us both.
Thank you Sue
My wife has received care from Unicare for 3 years. The carers have always been very friendly, helpful, considerate and caring. During the past 2 years I have also been unwell and having their help has been a great support to me as well. The office staff are very helpful also, as at times we have needed extra help and they have always tried to accommodate this.
...John
It’s almost two years now that I have been receiving care from Unicare, I have had no problems with any member of the care team or the office staff, I have been more than happy with every member of staff, I’m usually first on at 07.00 am, their staff no matter how much sleep they have had the night before I find them happy to care for me with a smile and a joke.
Last year was a sad one at Unicare a lot of the most senior staff found work elsewhere but Unicare have don’t everything possible to find replacements for those who left. Still it was sad for myself being on my own now they became friends, always cheerful, no matter what was going on in their private lives they seemed able to have a laugh and a joke with me which I’m sure at time’s the last thing they needed was a joke.
Thank you Mike for taking the time to review Unicare Devon. .....see you soon
The office staff are exactly the same. I highly recommend this company. They genuinely care about their clients and they arrive when they are supposed to. I have never felt uncomfortable with any staff member and get regular carers so I can build a rapport with them. This is so wonderful as my condition makes me very anxious if someone I don't know arrives to help me.
I get my help paid for by social services but if I had to pay for my care I would only have Unicare Devon. They are the best and I cannot recommend them highly enough.
Hi Lisa thank you very much and we will see you soon ... Unicare
We can only say after this period of time the care is the best we have received, the carers are well trained and always willing to do that little bit extra to fulfill the client's needs, should there be any issues then someone is at hand to deal with these. All carers have the skills and practical know how to engage with my mum and she also gets a good chat and cuddle too. Thank you Unicare.
Thank you for your kind words
Unicare Devon Team
They provide a great level of care and accommodate me to a very high standard. I know I'm hard work being wheelchair bound with MS, but all the staff cope extremely well with helping me. They visit me 4 times a day. I'm very grateful.
I have been a client of Unicare since I had Chemotherapy over four years ago. A very caring company you with high quality staff who are willing to support you. They have helped me through various health problems and I am now receiving care after breaking my leg whilst I was visiting my daughter in Buckinghamshire. The hospital treating me phoned Unicare to arrange a care package and they were very impressed by by the ' can do' attitude of the office staff.
Mary thank you so much, see you soon

Meet the Team (7)
Starting Unicare Devon in 2010 whilst having a very young family and working two jobs was a challenge, however, to see where the company is today makes me very proud as I really couldn't ask for a better team of people around me. They ensure the care our clients receive is nothing short of person-centred and reflects the individual's needs and wishes.
Very proud
As a busy mum to two children and with lots of family now living locally, I love spending time my time with them and getting out and about and enjoying what beautiful Devon has to offer.
Before joining Unicare Devon in July 2019, I spent part of my life in Australia where my children were born, but then came home where I worked within Torbay as a Health and Social Care Assessor assisting individuals to gain their qualifications. When outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family which includes my husband and two adult children, one if which is married. We enjoy spending time together and taking walks in the countryside and by the beautiful beaches of Devon.
Before working for Unicare Devon, I spent twenty years working out in the community looking after elderly and vulnerable Adults. I have been in employment at Unicare Devon for seven years in November. I started off in community care, and after a couple of years, I was promoted to team leader, to then progress to becoming company scheduler.
I enjoy this role very much as it enables me to be involved in further supporting the company.
I have lived in Devon all my life, I am married I have lots of pets and enjoy going away on camping holidays.
I am married, we have 2 sons and grandchildren. I enjoy travel, spending time with my family and cooking. I have worked in the Care industry for almost 50 years now. So I have seen many changes over the years and feel settled with Unicare Devon.
I joined Unicare during the pandemic in early 2020 as a carer. I worked my way up to Team Leader leading into my current role as Assessment Manager. I have worked within the NHS since I left school and before joining Unicare worked within GP practices. What I love most about my role is being able to fulfil my admin skills within the office but I also enjoy going out into the community and meeting our clients to assess and help improve their quality of life in their home environment. It is more than just a job! Outside of work I spend a lot of time with my grandparents, eating out with my friends and travelling.
I have worked for Unicare Devon for the last 3 years. When I first started I was a carer, soon after I became a Team Leader and for the last year, I have been the HR manager. During my time here at Unicare Devon, I have realised that Unicare Devon is a one of a kind company. During my spare time, I enjoy taking my 6-year-old daughter out on adventures.
