Overall Experience
The set-up for the service was needed quickly and this was done well with good communication and explanation from the team.
The carers have been wonderful with Mum, showing care and compassion with her really friendly and helpful.
The app that they use is great to see how the visits went and any things that I needed to know were in there.

The team as a whole run a very good and smoothly run service.

Overall Experience

Without the In Home Care staff and carers, who I have found in over three years to be caring and compassionate, I would not have been able to give my parents the quality of life at home that they deserved. At times of medical emergencies, the carers have been knowledgeable and calm in handling the situation and in normal times the laughter and stories during visits brighten up the lives of my parents. I have no hesitation in recommending the staff at Horndean In Home Care.

All carers who look after my mother are professional, cheerful and respectful. My mother looks forward to their morning visits.
She trusts them and enjoys the chats.

Personally, I could not cope without their care.

Excellent company. The staff are always well presented, polite and friendly.

Only one suggestion would be please contact the service user when you change times, as we have arrangements in place for the time advised, eg golf Tee off times verses vanishing times to be back for staff leaving.

Review from Betty M (Wife of Client) published on 4 August 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We cannot recommend In Home Care highly enough. Apart from being efficient, listening to the client’s needs and adjusting to changes in those needs, the carers who come into our home were a pleasure to have around. There was always a phone call to tell us if a carer was going to be later than the appointed time. Those who came in became friends that we looked forward to seeing twice a day. After an extended period in hospital, In Home Care was unable to fit us back into their schedule, but while in hospital they called not only to check on their client’s health but also on my well-being. A huge thank you to everyone at In Home Care.

Overall Experience

My father has advanced Alzhimer's/Dementia with poor hearing, occasionally displaying challenging behaviours and requires prompting, guidance and reassurance as he goes about his daily routine. In Home Care has been instrumental in providing a care package that meets these needs, offering continuity of care personnel experienced in the area of health conditions. The supplied professional quickly established a relationship with my dad, achieving optimal compliance with his morning routine. As his condition has progressed over the past four months, the care professional has displayed versatility and compassion in interacting with my dad in order to facilitate the maintenance of his toiletry and hygiene regimes.

Review from Jane J (Daughter of Client) published on 12 June 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My 91-year-old father was very reluctant to have carers after falling and breaking his hip. However, he realised he needed help to stay in his home and remain semi-independent. His carers understood his situation and gave him time to adjust and get to know them. They were reliable and kind, and wherever possible, were consistently the same members of staff. The office always kept me informed of any changes and always answered the phone!

I will always be grateful to those who looked after him as he clearly was very happy with them, which in turn, stopped me from worrying about him.

I always look forward to seeing my carer on a Friday who helps me with my shopping. Always cheerful and we have a great laugh. I have had the same carers for many years and she knows the procedures never missing the sweet aisle! she pushes the trolley for me and reaches the high shelves. I cannot manage without her help, great support and a special carer.

Overall Experience

In Home Care have helped to look after my mother for the past couple of years. I found all the carers to be very professional but also very friendly, kind, helpful and very caring towards mum. They always treated mum with great respect and dignity. I cannot fault the care they provided and in my opinion, they always went the extra mile. They helped me through a very demanding time which was made even more difficult due to Covid. I would highly recommend In Home Care to anyone who wants to keep their parent/relative in their own home for as long as possible and assure them that they will receive the very best of care.

Review from Jackie D (Daughter of Client) published on 16 August 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My dad has needed help to shower and get dressed each morning since a stroke earlier this year, and we (my dad, mum and I) are very happy with the excellent level of care we are getting from In Home Care. The carers and the office staff are always courteous, friendly and cheerful, but most importantly, professional and diligent. The carers have helped my dad to keep his dignity, and he considers the level of care he is getting to be equal to the assistance he received from the nurses in hospital. He can’t praise them enough. Dad finds the mornings difficult until he gets moving, but once he is in the bathroom it is great to hear him laughing and chatting with the carers - we say he ‘goes upstairs feeling like Eeyore, and comes back down acting like Tigger!’

We would have no hesitation in recommending In Home Care to family and friends.

Overall Experience
The carers and admin staff based at In-Home Care Ltd at Horndean have cared firstly for Mum and lately Dad for over a year. In that time I have seen how professional and experienced all the carers and office staff have been and continue to be. Recently, the company advised me (as the second carer) on methods and practices of moving my recently bedbound father without causing him distress and followed up with progress visits and calls. The methods shown to me have proved invaluable to keeping Dad relaxed and more accepting of being moved and washed in bed.
In addition, the carers provide a window to what is happening in the local area as well as the world which keeps their minds active - there is also a lot of laughter!

In the current pandemic, the company has continued to keep me up to date with the changing Government Covid-19 protocols for both carers and clients in order to keep everyone safe. I have no hesitation in recommending In-Home Care Ltd.
