Mum started with carers at the end of January so very early days. We have been impressed with the service and staff have gone out of their way to help her. Due to staff shortages, she has had a few late visits. Would definitely recommend.

I think HRM Homecare Services - South West is the same as any private care company, the more clients they take on the more money they make, this puts the carers under pressure so the client suffers as the carers try to get in and out as quickly as possible so client does not get the time allocated.
Also there is no continuity of care as they keep changing the carers.
Reply from Diane Tinline, Director at HRM Homecare Services - South West

Many thanks for taking the time to complete this review.
Social Care is facing an unprecedented national recruitment shortage in both the statutory, third and independent sectors and we are also still in the grips of a global pandemic. Unfortunately, as a result, staff shortages and amendments to allocated times for care visits are a sectoral wide issue in the present climate. HRM have however ensured that every service user has received their visits throughout this particularly difficult time.

Our experience has been a very positive one. I have already recommended HRM to a neighbour and Council. The carers have been first-class and show Mum respect and high-quality attendance. Would highly recommend.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
An extremely professional company offering first-class care to my mum.
The girls go above and beyond to care for my mum.
The office is very helpful.
The app is great to review mum's day to day care and well being.
The extra support in the house i.e dishes, bins and washing also makes such a difference
to me as I run my own business full-time.
Honestly could not do without this team.

Since my mum's care was taken over by HRM I can honestly state we are delighted with the level of service provided by all of the staff at HRM. They are all very professional, friendly, and willing to assist in any way they can. 10 out of 10 to all the girls.

I am happy with the service my father is receiving. The staff are pleasant and friendly. I do find some staff members go above and beyond, making life so much easier for myself and my dad. They treat him with respect and show compassion. I have not rated excellent as some carers are placed with not
being before and then might not be back again. But we are happy.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The care and support provided to my dad have been exceptional. Having carers visit my dad 4 times a day has given me peace of mind that he is being looked after and less of a danger to himself. Having the app is really useful to be able to read the reports documented on my dad of the care that he is
receiving. My dad has also commented that his carers are very kind and considerate to his needs and always go out of their way to help him in any way they can.

Can’t say a bad word about any of the staff calling to aid me as they are always very friendly and starting to feel more like family as settled into the same staff calling. Further, I am profoundly deaf and for any cancellations or issues I always use email and the staff carry this out with a friendly
reply with confirmation and asking how I am and passes on my thanks and praise to the team.

Would not be in a position to recommend the service as this is decided via social work. The service provided initially has deteriorated with staff shortages and amendments to allocated times for care visits.

My mum has been receiving care from HRM for 7 years now and the care and service she gets is exemplary. One carer has been my mum's main carer over the last 7 years and continuously goes above and beyond to assist my mum's needs. Couldn't recommend highly enough!

Review from Margaret W (Sister of Client) published on 3 September 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My brother has nearly always lived on his own and has been very independent. He now has health issues and found it very difficult to accept that the time has come for a little help.
He is set in his ways so reluctantly accepted a Homecare visit once a day and now looks forward to seeing them.
Everyone
is really cheery and helpful.
He now needs more support and we are both really glad that HRM Homecare is available.
I have tried to step in and muddle through but it is becoming more difficult.
Homecare contacted me and discussed extra support as they know the help available and his individual needs.
I realise he needs professional help and that is exactly the service HRM Homecare provides.
We both have every confidence in HRM Homecare making a big difference in both our lives.

The carers who come in to my mum are fantastic, caring, compassionate and professional. They communicate well and mum clearly enjoys the chat as well as being aided to be as independent as possible. The manager however lets this service down, as always. Lack of communication, organisation and planning.
Would not choose the company but would do so for the carers.

At first the pattern of support took time to settle. The staff care workers are friendly, helpful and flexible in adapting to limitations of our house. They have built a bond of trust with my wife and myself and are sensitive to our situation.

I am happy with the service provided. The only comment I can make is when carers are called to an emergency, there should be someone to cover their round while away. This happened to my mother last week, she didn't receive any care in the morning. She called the office but as she is quite deaf she didn't
understand what was being said, hopefully, this won't happen again. Her carers came at lunchtime to explain and apologize for not coming in the morning. That's my only complaint.
Reply from Heather Weir, Team Manager-Referrals and Assessments at HRM Homecare Services - South West

HRM can only apologize for your mother not receiving a service on that particular morning. We will ensure that this never happens again. We appreciate your feedback and are addressing your concerns with regard to emergency cover.
