My carers are all a Godsend to me. They are all wonderful and I am very grateful for everything they do for me. Having my carers enables me to stay in my own home, without them I would have to be in residential care, which I really don't like the thought of. I can't thank them enough.

This care service provided to my mother has so far been excellent. Her needs have been met. She has been treated with dignity by helpful and cheerful staff, who show a genuine concern for their client.

I am very pleased with the care given to my father by White Cross Care Ltd. The staff are kind and thoughtful towards my father. It is reassuring to know that he is being cared for well during the times that I cannot be around. I would recommend this Home Care company for care. The management team are
always available to speak to on the telephone when required.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Needed to honour my parents' wishes as they wanted to remain in their own home but they needed regular support that I could not provide due to living miles away, having a family of my own and full-time work commitments. The worry and concerns I had have now greatly reduced as White Cross have provided
a support structure for my parents and are always in touch should anything happen or change. I would highly recommend this company and service they provide not only for my parents but for my whole family. Highly recommend.

I have used other care agencies in the past and have experienced problems. Whilst employing White Cross we found their support absolutely without criticism and wouldn't hesitate to ask further help should I need it in the future.

I cannot thank the team enough for the absolute wonderful care they gave my father, nothing was too much trouble and even when he was having a bad day they showed care that was out of this world. When he passed away early on the 19th of August they came and helped clean him up ready to be collected
by the funeral directors, I wish the care these give was across the hospitals etc. Not all Heros wear capes and these are absolute heroes.

I have been most impressed with the White Cross service in all its aspects. Mum and Dad have found all of the carers sensitive, caring and efficient. Indeed, they have both become quite attached to some of the regular staff. I find the organisation flexible and easy to deal with and the staff quick
to report anything of concern to me. On more than one occasion carers have gone that extra mile for Mum and Dad leading me to commend their action to the management. White Cross came to me through recommendation - I am glad they did and I am happy to pass on that same recommendation.

We preferred contact with the Head of Care as she was thorough, kind and professional. The training she gave to the staff was second to none. I have never come across a care agency like them before. Superb. They deserve recognition for this, especially the Head of Care. Thank you very much.

The carers who have looked after my mother have treated her with dignity and have remained professional and concerned for her wellbeing. They have worked well with other health professionals to ensure continuity of care. I would have no problems with recommending White Cross as a care provider to other
potential users.

Both my mother and I have been extremely happy with the service and care provided by White Cross Care. The majority of the carers are extremely pleasant and friendly and engage in conversation which is extremely important to my mum who is social in her personality.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
In the years up until January 2020 when Mum died, she received excellent care from the White Cross carer staff. Of course, some of the careers were better than others but in the main very professional. Each developed a personal but professional relationship with Mum, the friendliness was both ways.
Mum could be quite critical but the White Cross Carers were very tolerant and always pressed on with delivering the care needed. These agencies suffer a high turnover of staff and good ones come and go, the senior members within White Cross were very good. The manager seemed always to be available on the phone if a crisis arrived.

I just wanted to say how very lucky we feel that we were put in touch with White Cross Care.
Since the first year when Dad needed just a small helping hand, your team have continued to support him in so many ways.
As his needs have changed and the care calls have increased your carers have become
to feel like part of the family.
Every one of your carers has their own style and strengths and the care and support they give Dad is really outstanding.
I really can't thank you enough for always accommodating last-minute changes and requests and for making Dad's difficult days a little easier for him.
This week the district nurse commented on how well Dad's skin was being cared for, and of course, this is down to his daily personal care, so I just wanted to say a big 'thank you' to everyone.

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 4.958 for White Cross Care Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (46 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 48 Ratings = 4.958

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows: 3 points for the first Positive Review, 2 points in total for each of the next 9 Positive Reviews (1st = 3, 2nd = 0.5, 3rd = 0.5, 4th = 0.25, 5th = 0.25, 6th = 0.1, 7th = 0.1, 8th = 0.1, 9th = 0.1, 10th = 0.1)

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for White Cross Care Ltd is based on 8 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4.8
  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.
