The carers I have treat me with respect, they are friendly and very helpful. I am always asked if I have every thing I need before they leave. They make my wife a cup of tea when I am in the shower, and always check to make sure I am alright. I have cream put on my legs and feet and they always put
my socks on for me. While I'm eating my breakfast they have made me my wife and I have a chat with them. We are very happy with service I receive from Churchfields Home Care.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have been using Churchfields home care services for my mother for over a year and they have been consistently good throughout. They will go above and beyond your requirements, for example, whilst my mother was the person receiving care but my father became ill they would check on him and make him
a cup of tea or if they noticed any issues would contact me immediately even though the contract was for my mother. On another occasion my father fell out of bed, the girls were there straight away and rang for assistance and stayed until it arrived even though it made them late for their next call. They will always help whenever and wherever they can.
They have an app which you can download onto your phone so you know exactly who is coming when they arrive and when they leave, this has certainly helped me over the past year knowing when a carer has been due or has already visited. They have been great for us and I would certainly recommend them if you are looking for a care provider.
Reply from Kim, Manager at Churchfields Home Care LtdMany thanks for the lovely review. It has been an absolute pleasure to have provided support and care to your mum and dad over recent years. I hope Mum is settling well in her new home- she is very much missed by the care staff. Kind regards

The manager and her team have gone above and beyond for Mum. Mum's carers do so much for her and I feel happier knowing she is safe at home with their help.
The team always do their absolute best to help me when I need extra support with Mum and I could not ask for kinder, more caring people to assist
with Mum's care.
Dementia is a challenging illness to deal with, but Mum is treated with kindness, compassion and dignity and I am extremely grateful to everyone at Churchfields Homecare for their help. It's fair to say they've always got a listening ear for me when I need it as well, which is hugely appreciated.
Reply from Kim Mason, Manager at Churchfields Home Care LtdThank you very much for a positive review. Our care team work exceptionally hard to achieve positive outcomes. I know they are all very fond of Mum. Always here to help where we can.

I have found that each carer I have is helpful and efficient. Each carer is a le to wash me and wash my hair. They also vacuum downstairs. They also wash my legs and feet and cream my feet and legs as I have lymphodema. I hope that during this epidemic of norovirus, each carer will wear a mask to avoid
spreading this disease to the elderly.
Reply from Kim, Manager at Churchfields Home Care LtdIt is lovely to hear how helpful and efficient you find the carers who visit you regularly. All of the care team work in accordance with PPE requirements and following infection control guidance. Kind Regards

Most of the carers were kind and generous with their time and chatted with Mum which meant a lot to her. She referred to the carers affectionately as “her girls”. The app that allows reports on visits and any potential issues was excellent. Communication from management was very good. Any concerns
were immediately passed to us. Cleaning service was disappointing.

Churchfields Home Care has provided exceptional support and care for my mother. This has allowed her to live independently at home and has meant that Mum is safe, supported and regularly checked upon as I live 5 hours away from her.
The carers have been kind and have gone out of their way to help Mum.
She has benefited from sensitive conversation and personal care.
This is a highly dedicated service.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Since Churchfields Home Care has been providing care and support to both my parents, their quality of life has improved - and the levels of stress experienced by my brother and me have decreased considerably. My parents' care needs have been changing as their health and mobility decline and Churchfield
has been able to respond quickly and appropriately to our requests for additional help.
Recently, both my brother and I were out of the country taking a well-earned break: this would not have been possible without the confidence that Churchfields were looking after things at home.

We have had several carers visit recently. They have all been very friendly and caring and have done their best for my husband. They have all arrived on time (or even a few minutes early) and have done a very good job. My husband is very happy with the caring situation and I am very grateful for all
their help.

  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 24 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Home Care Provider is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.803 for Churchfields Home Care Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (116 Excellents x 5) + (24 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 142 Ratings = 4.803

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Churchfields Home Care Ltd is based on 24 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 5
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Home Care Provider does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
