I couldn't have asked for more friendly and caring people to look after my dad because I know they care. They were there for all of us right up to the end of his life.
I have recommended them to lots of friends and family

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Having moved to Caremark (Sefton) from another company, we couldn’t be happier. All the carers are lovely!
They are reliable, stay the duration of time booked and do many tasks while there.
They definitely have Dad's best interests at heart and raise any health or welfare concerns immediately.
The
office manager is very helpful and always only a text away if needed.
We have used Caremark (Sefton) for many years now and highly recommend them.

We used Caremark (Sefton) for well over a year and always had a wonderful service from the super team there. They’re always so friendly and responsive and they made a real effort to befriend my mum and brighten her day.

Review from Sally H (Daughter of Client) published on 23 September 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Throughout the time that I had Caremark (Sefton) look after my 91-year-old mother, I found the staff very caring and compassionate, being patient with her and truly caring about her. She recovered, but would like the staff back to look after her! On first name terms, she thinks of them as friends so
if we ever have to have anyone to be with her again we definitely would have Caremark (Sefton) to look after her.

Thank you very much for your kind words Sally, your mum was a pleasure to support.

All the carers are lovely, without exception. Very helpful, kind and caring. If I could afford it I would have a carer every day!
The only comment I would make is that I believe that all carers should be given driving times between their clients' appointment.

Thank you for your kind words; we appreciate that the travel time is not always sufficient and hope that we can improve on this.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Caremark (Sefton) provided support with community access for my mother. The company were prompt and informative from the very start. All of the staff were polite, professional and very compassionate. Staff engaged with my mother and increased her confidence, they were also very flexible with my mothers
needs on any given day and would adapt to help her as much as possible. I cannot fault the company or their staff, they have exceeded all expectations. I cannot recommend them enough.

Review from Kate (Friend of Client) published on 9 November 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
The Caremark (Sefton) staff have provided a live-in service to my friend, who has advanced dementia. They assigned consistent and compassionate carers who all got to know my friend well and worked hard to ensure her needs and wishes were met, even when it was very difficult for her to communicate them
because of her condition. Her regular carers were all wonderful, and the office was also supportive and responsive, often reacting to unusual requests at very short notice.
When it became impossible for my friend to remain at home, her carers wrote such detailed notes for the team at her residential home that it made the transition much easier for my friend than we all feared it may be.
