Caremark Oldham Reviews (23)
Caremark Oldham has a Review Score of 9.5 (9.466) out of 10, based on 5 reviews in the last 2 years.
Over all time Caremark Oldham has 23 reviews.
All the carers treat him with dignity and respect, and they genuinely care for his welfare. His core team of regular carers are all brilliant with him, supplemented by less frequent carers to cover holidays and other leave.
We get weekly updates on who has visited, how long they attended, and what services they have provided, including whether he wants to stay in bed on a particular day or if he needed extra care for any reason. On a few occasions my father has been on the floor following a fall and the carer has alerted emergency services and stayed with him until they arrived.
There is also a good team in the office with a client-centric view and who always have time to discuss any concerns and offer solutions.
I am so grateful to have such a good team looking after my father.
It is a pleasure to work with you and your father.
The team from Caremark Oldham went above and beyond for my Father after a brief hospital stay and IMC. Each carer treated him with dignity and respect and nothing was too much trouble. We had some complex issues throughout the last month and the whole team, including Management were outstanding. Thank you to you all x
Thank you for your kind review. The whole team really appreciate all feedback and it is especially nice to hear that you are pleased with our service. Thank you.
Caremark have cared for me and my son for a number of years. I cannot recommend this company enough. The staff are caring, dedicated, treat us with dignity and make us feel comfortable and cater to our needs perfectly. My son has very complex needs and the carers and office staff have tailor made his care to suit him. He has a cheeky sense of humour and the carers all get along with him and have a laugh with him while caring for him, they are also very patient. My team of carers are compassionate and friendly and I know they are working to the best of their abilities. The office staff and management are quick to respond to any issues and listen to our requests and needs. Overall the standard of care is excellent and I would be happy to recommend their services to anyone who needed care.
Thank you for reviewing our service and for your kind words in respect of the care team. This is much appreciated.
You sometimes hear negative remarks about some care providers but i can assure you that Caremark are exemplary. They have looked after my brother now for many years and hopefully a lot more many years to come. I cannot fault them they do a tremendous job under difficult circumstances. I also have to give a lot of credit to the carers who go above and beyond their remit.
Thank you for your kind comments and for taking the time to review the service we provide. The Team are delighted with your positive feedback. Thank you.
This company offer a fantastic service. Proactive and caring. We are all very pleased with the services they are offering. One of the staff goes above and beyond our expectations. We have recommended the company to friends.
Thank you for your review. We are delighted that you are happy with our services. Thank you also for recommending us to family and friends. Your feedback helps our entire team to smile and carry on improving. The Caremark Oldham Team.
All the staff are lovely, they are very professional and treat me with dignity and respect. Nothing is to much trouble, ask them to do anything and they will. They interact with me so well and I feel I can have a good moan to them.
Caremark has provided a great twice daily care support service to my elderly mother for more than four years. I have always been impressed by their staff at both manager and carer level. I am very happy to recommend them to anyone requiring additional trusted and considerate home care support for a loved one.
My daughter was born with spina bifida and hydrocephalus. Actual age 51 years. Mental age approximately 18 months. Does not walk, does not talk, but recognises her carers by their voices and always ready for them with a smile. The work they do is much appreciated by myself and my daughter.
Many thanks for taking the time to review Caremark Oldham.
Difficult times. The death of a husband, old age and dementia made life difficult for Mum. We decided that her home was her memory box and staying there was essential. With little family nearby Caremark (Oldham) stepped into the gap. They provided the kind, supportive care which enabled Mum to have 4 extra years of high quality independent living. They have been professional and supportive to all the family. But most of all they were great for Mum.
Thank you so much for your kind review, glad we can help.
If there have ever been any amendments needed within my grandma’s care or her needs, the carers and office have been very responsive and adaptive to any requests. Thank you so much for everything so far!
Thank you so much for taking the time to review our service.
I have recently been away for a 3 week holiday and felt very nervous about leaving my mum, who has dementia, for that length of time. She often “sundowns” so the more risky time of day for her is in the evening and she doesn’t sometimes realise it is time to go to bed. So we asked Caremark Oldham to come in at 10pm every evening to check on her, settle her if necessary and encourage her to go to bed. They did a fantastic job. They recognised that mum would be more settled if she had the same carer visiting every day and they facilitated this. They also responded well to her needs so if she was fine they just popped in and left quite quickly as this was what she wanted but on the odd occasion they needed to settle her, they stayed longer and didn’t leave until they were happy she was OK. And they kept me informed with regular updates which were very reassuring. Thank you to everyone involved with my mum’s care. I won’t hesitate to use Caremark again in the future.
Many thanks for taking the time to review Caremark.
I am writing to you to let you know how happy I am with your service. My son has been allocated a specific carer to take him out socially once a week. This carer is a lovely young man who is very punctual and comes early to plan their outing. My son has autism and struggles with social communication but this carer seems to bring him out of his shell and my son always comes home happy. I would have no hesitation to recommend your services to anyone else who needs a carer. Please pass on my praise to my son's care, who is a credit to your service.

I am so pleased with the support that has been provided for my mum by staff, they have gone the extra mile to ensure that my mum is cared for in the best possible way. My mum had a recent issue with ants that she and I were struggling to get rid of, but the staff at Caremark supported us in finding out the best method to get rid of them, even spending time to research online. My mum and I are really thankful for their support and the way that they stepped in to help us.

My mum has recently started having companionship care from Caremark (Oldham).
After a very negative experience with a previous agency mum was not keen on trying again.
However, the carer visited her twice last week and mum has been absolutely delighted. She has gone from dreading and trying to cancel visits and always cutting them very short to being really enthusiastic and thoroughly enjoying her time with the carer.
Many thanks, Caremark (Oldham) for supporting mum and making such a positive change.

Caremark has provided some fantastic carers for our mum. Carers understand her dementia and manages all her needs better that we ever expected. Our mum has missed male company since my dad died and a visit and a cup of tea with her carer makes her day. My sister and I have both recently been away on holiday and Caremark have managed our mum with skills beyond what we expected. Regular communications during this period, particularly from her carer were very reassuring. We are so pleased with the care from Caremark that we are increasing the care hours for our mum, so we can have more time to enjoy our own children and grandchildren.

Very good service very helpful. The client enjoys going out with her care support worker and no problems to report.
Thank you for your review.
As a husband of the resident, I am subject to concerns about my wife and I am struggling and stressful on a day to day basis, some days more than others. I have needed help on occasions and to this end, the care manager and her assistant manager have been extremely helpful to me and recently went the extra mile and more. If I could, I would award them 5 gold stars.
They were superb.
Thank you very very much. I am so appreciative.
Thank you for your kind words and taking the time to write a review.
Caremark have always been willing to try to accommodate all requests and also been proactive in liaising with community services to ensure the best care of our parents when we all are living overseas.
I would not hesitate to recommend Caremark services to other families requiring care for loved ones in their own home.
Thank you for taking the time to review Caremark Oldham
I feel that my sister has been very well looked after by Caremark. There have been a few issues on both sides which have been resolved but mainly due to circumstances at the time or clash of personalities with staff, nothing major!
Thank you for the review.
At the time my father-in-law needed home care they were the only company available for his needs at that time.
Thank you for your kind review.

I have worked at Caremark Oldham for 12 years now and started my career here as a care and support worker. I love working in care and only live locally myself, so Caremark is a big part of my life. I progressed to an office-based role and then worked my way up. I finally took over as Care Manager in September 2023. The office team pride itself on ensuring high standards of care are delivered and that clients feel they are receiving person-centred care. Our CSWs are safe in the knowledge that we offer an open-door policy, which creates a nice working environment and staff feel listened to and supported by us. We have a fantastic team of care and support workers here who all strive for the same goals as us.
