Excellent service. First time we have had carers for my mother. Very sympathetic company. Understood our needs and had a very good timetable to fit in with our lives. My partner and I live with Mum. We would recommend GoodOaks to anyone.
Thank You so much for your review it really does mean a lot to us. Please reach out if you need us again.Warmest Regards
This has been hard for my sister and myself being so far away but this agency has been fantastic !!!!!
We cannot thank you enough for this amazing review we are so grateful that you took the time. We so appreciate this feedback.Kindest Regards.
Right from the start I felt a wonderful, personal, caring and understanding approach. As my father's needs changed rapidly from what we initially had booked to commence with you, you were quick to ensure we had the necessary care provision in place.
We straightaway formed a wonderful relationship with the young carer who was appointed to us and she became one of the family in the short period she was with us.
Cannot fault a single thing about Goodoaks. We are forever thankful for them being there for us at a time when we really needed them.
Thank you so much for your kind words and for taking the time to share your experience. We are truly touched by your feedback and so pleased to hear that you felt supported and cared for throughout your journey with us.Ensuring that families receive the right care, especially when needs change...
All the carers come at the time expected. They are invariably pleasant and efficient and I think my husband welcomes them. I certainly could not manage without their help. Financially it is quite a commitment but I prefer to have home care. The carers say they are here to help me as well as my husband. The carers very quickly learned where to find whatever they needed and I don't need to get involved.
Thank you for your kind words. I will pass this on to the care professionals who cared for him. I'm glad we were there to support him and yourself.
Your manager and admin team have also been very supportive and stepped in when required. Overall you provide a reliable, professional service and your team has shown kindness and support to my parents, and myself.
Thank you so much for your kind words and I will pass this on to the manager and the team. It means so much to us when someone reaches out to say what an impact we have made. We wish you and your parents all the best.
They started their care for Mum, just before the outbreak of Covid 19.
During that time, the carers did a excellent job in extremely difficult circumstances, even taking over the weekly shopping duties, when lockdown was imposed on us.
Overall the Good Oaks team have been reliable and provided a professional service to my mum on a daily basis. The team brought kindness and some laughs along the way to help brighten up Mum's life.
A special mention to the staff, who always went that extra mile and is an absolute credit to her profession.
Thank you to the manager and the team at Good Oaks for the last 4 and half years of service to my mum.
The service provided really did make a difference to both myself and Mum's life. Thank you once again.
Thank you so much for taking the time to write us this beautiful review. We know it's a very difficult time at the moment, but I will ensure that this is passed on to all the carers that looked after your Mum. She will be truly missed and best wishes to you. Take care
The live-in care manager provided an excellent service, always responding quickly to any concerns or changes in arrangements, treating my mother and family members with the upmost professionalism and respect throughout.
Some of the carers provided an excellent service, bringing with them an interesting range of personal and professional experiences.
Thank you for your kind review. We have thoroughly enjoyed supporting your mum and wish her all the best.
Happy carers.
Thank you so much for your review and taking the time to complete the form.
Thank you.
Thanks for taking the time to complete a review, it's a pleasure to look after your Mum and we look forward to seeing Mum at our next event.
I've been using GoodOaks Homecare for the past four years, during which time my experience has been largely positive. Some of my carers are truly excellent and I am grateful for all they do for me. Their timekeeping is exemplary, as well as their personal care. The office staff are always very polite.
Thanks for talking the time to complete a review for us, and we really appreciate your kind words.
GoodOaks provided my friend with a professional home service. Staff were prompt, well-trained, kind, caring and supportive. I would highly recommend them.
GoodOaks is the go-to care provider. Nothing is ever too much trouble and you know your relative is receiving the best care they could. The carers are lovely and the management is very professional.
The care and support provided by GoodOaks Homecare - Bournemouth, Poole and Christchurch allowed my father to live independently in his own home, as he wanted, for longer than we thought possible. The carers and office staff were always helpful and friendly. Many thanks.
My lovely mum reached 100 years old and was visited by the manager of her group of lovely carers who bought her a lovely present of flowers and a card - a lovely gesture.
Thank you for your very kind review - our care manager was honoured to visit your mum when she reached such an incredible milestone! We'll pass on your review to the rest of the team too. Thanks again.
Excellent, friendly and efficient service. In taking me on as a new client, explaining how things work and making me feel very reassured. All staff that I have met have been friendly and competent with good timekeeping. I especially appreciate the rota for the following week.
Thank you for taking the time to review us - it is a pleasure to visit you and I'm glad you've found the set-up process reassuring. We will pass on your feedback to the rest of our team!
I have found the carers who have dealt with me to be very professional, friendly and, most importantly, trustworthy. I have always been treated with dignity, which is of paramount importance to me as I am paralysed from the waist down. My main carer is excellent, as are the two regular carers. Any issues that have arisen over time have been dealt with satisfactorily by your office. I have been with your company for the past five years and am happy to continue.
Thank you for your review. We always recruit our care professionals based on a fit with our Values of Professionalism, Respect, Integrity, Dedication and Empathy, as well as the 'Mum Test' - would we be happy for this person to look after our loved one? I am glad your carers are doing such a great job, we'll be sure to pass on your feedback!
Very satisfied with the service. All the carers are most capable and sensitive to my needs.
Thank you for your review - it's great to hear that you are very satisfied with our service. We'll pass your feedback on to the rest of the team!
I am happy with the care provided.
Thank you for your review - it's great to hear that you are very satisfied with our service. We'll pass your feedback on to the rest of the team!
GoodOaks have provided consistent quality carers for my sister, who has advanced Alzheimer's. We have morning carers to help with showering and dressing, plus afternoon carers for companionship. I feel confident leaving my vulnerable relative in GoodOaks care. I have increased our hours and will continue to do so as my sister's need change.
Thanks so much for your very kind review. It is a pleasure to help support your sister to stay at home and we'll keep adapting to her changing requirements as needed.
They do all I need of them. Seem well-managed. What more can they do? I am perfectly capable of looking after myself and my house but my children want me visited every day. They just make me lazy but it is nice to have them cook my breakfast.
Thanks so much for your review. I'm glad we're helping with everything you need at the moment!

Meet the Team (3)

I have been working in social care for 33 years, in my role I support the team both for live-in and visiting services. I also need to ensure that our team is meeting the standards of CQC that we are delivering the best care and that all care needs are met on a day-to-day base.
Prior to working with GoodOaks, I was overseeing supported living services in Sherborne for adults with complex behaviour and I also set up a community support service for adults with Asperger's Syndrome in my previous role.

I previously worked as a carer for GoodOaks before joining the office team as the Live-in Care Coordinator and have recently been promoted to Manager. I love working in the care industry and it's lovely to know that you're helping someone stay in their own home for as long as possible.

Having previously worked as a Live-in Care professional for GoodOaks I was excited to join the office team to support the function of the office on a day-to-day basis. I really enjoy working in the care sector and I'm excited to get to know the teams, clients and their families.
