Review from Jennifer R (Daughter-in-law of Client) published on 29 April 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Generally things are ok but room for improvement with regards to cleaning
It seems to vary from week to week what gets done and doesn't

Sometimes with food is being prepared carers don't find what they need even though it is there as they don't look

Reply from Georgie Mills, Registered Manager at Avante Home Care Kent

Thank you for your comments Jennifer I am sorry that things haven't been quite right. We have updated mum's care plan since receiving your email in the office. We have also added some of the tasks to the activity schedule and hope this will improve the service mum is receiving. Please let us know if you still are experiencing these issues.

Overall Experience
I am very happy with the service Avante, Faversham provides. I have found the carers to be very friendly, cheerful and polite and they actually care about their clients. They treat my mother who has Alzheimers with great dignity and respect as they do the home. I have no concerns with any of the carers and have the utmost confidence that my mum is in safe hands. Mum loves singing along with Sally!

The management team always tries to keep a regular carer to attend my mum, which is important for consistancy. They also go above and beyond to help me out with any extra help we require.

Reply from Georgie Mills, Registered Manager at Avante Home Care Kent

Thank you for your lovely review Amanda. I am glad mum enjoys her singalongs with Sally and that you feel she has the care she deserves.

A good experience. The carers are pleasant, obliging and helpful. I walk with a stick, so I am not totally dependent. The carers and office staff will fit in with my arrangement and take me to appointments and shopping when needed.

Overall a good experience with Avante.
Nice carers - although the older age group are more aware to the 90+ range.

Would recommend Avante.

My mother has been looked after extremely well since receiving care and support from Avante. She is very fond and trusting of her regular carer, and looks forward to the daily visits. Since settling on a regular time, it has provided greater stability.

I am very grateful for the service provided by those in the office and very much appreciate receiving the weekly care rota. They have also been extremely helpful and supportive when contacting the district nurses.

Overall Experience

99% of the time I have experienced at least twice a day an excellent visit from the carer. Each one arrives in a very cheerful way. The care I receive is faultless. 1% of the time the care has been inadequate by not washing all parts of my body. I very much appreciate receiving the care rota every week.

Reply from Sam Powell, Manager at Avante Home Care Kent

We appreciate your feedback and are delighted to learn of your satisfaction with the service provided. Regarding the 1% of the time, a member of our team will contact you to discuss how we can ensure this reaches 100%.

Overall Experience

The service I get from Avante is very good. Sometimes carers are a bit late getting here but I don't think enough time is given for them to travel between visits. When they are here they do whatever is required. Some are more thorough than others but I am happy with their work. Very cheerful ladies and always have time for a chat. I wish the fees were less!

Overall Experience
In most cases I have found the carers to be very good or excellent - always friendly and polite.

However, I do feel that the pay they get is most inadequate for the work they do and the often unsocial hours they work. I would be happy to pay more for such a service.

Review from G L (Wife of Client) published on 1 March 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Happy with the carers themselves but scheduling leaves a lot to be desired. Booked for 4:30-5 pm and they arrive at anytime but. Recently it has been 3:15 pm. The morning call should be 10:30-11 pm and this week she arrived at 11:10. She said we were scheduled for 11:20.

When carers first came they always cleaned the shower afterwards. This isn’t done anymore.

Our experience of Avante Home Care and Support so far has been excellent. The staff are so caring and kind and have all the time for my nan in the 4 weeks of the care she has received so far. My nan has been treated with great dignity and the company has helped us as a family restore our trust in a care company.
