Review from J S (Son-in-law of Client) published on 24 November 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Highly recommend this company to provide home care services to loved ones.
Extremely professional service from everyone who we met, from team leaders to carers. My mum was not keen on carers at 1st but once the care was in place, she couldn't wait for the friendly staff to turn up. Not rushing around,
polite, friendly, helpful, professional, caring, flexible and much much more.
When my mum was diagnosed as terminal it was a stressful and scary time for everyone but the care and compassion showed by Lifetime Homecare Ltd staff put us at ease and provide the urgent care when it was needed the most. Thank you is not enough x

Lifetime Care are giving my mum everything she asked from a care company. All carers who visit my mum are attentive, give her choices for meals, wash and cream her feet which she enjoys. Pop washing in on one call hang it out on next and bring it in weather permitting. Chatting to mum through calls,
helping with getting washed and dressed. Replenishing drinks so mum has some to hand. Administering mums meds from lock box.
The family are contacted by office or carers if they have any concerns. Plus the app the carers use gives details of how mum is feeling, meals, time of calls etc which is great.

Needed care overnight for my bedridden elderly mother and LHC were helpful and responsive. They came to visit before care started so my mother was able to meet the carer who would be looking after her. The carer has been reliable, caring and helpful. My mother is happy in her company which is reassuring
for me as her daughter. LHC are organised and delivered the promises that they made in a professional manner.

We started our search for a Homecare provider back in July for our Mum who had recently lost my Dad and was finding the house very lonely , and had the onset of what we now know is Vascular/ Alzheimer's dementia.
After meeting numerous agency's both my sister and myself really liked Lifetime care ,
we felt that they were definitely on the side of the client, and totally got what we were looking for . . Even on their first visit they said who they thought would get on well with Mum . They got this exactly right , to the point that Mum really looks forward to her daily visitor . She really enjoys the chat , her meal is prepared and cooked for her , while she's
eating , her ironing is done while engaging in lots of conversation and laughing . They are always very obliging , clear and wash all the plots then sit and have a cuppa with Mum . For my sister and I their service is priceless . The best thing we did , we know Mum is happy and we appreciate the care that they give .

The staff are exemplary in behaviour and empathy. I get feedback constantly and calls with questions on how best to proceed with certain circumstances.
I have noticed on the days that mum has her carer in she starts the day content and happy, and this continues throughout the day.
At the start of
the care we created a care plan, myself and the supervisor. This has been adhered to and has been reflected in mums personality and appearance, the upkeep of the home leading to a healthy happy living.
Also may I add, the carer does not just do the chores she has a chat and social which in my opinion is as important.

We have used a few care agencies in the area but have found this company to be the best.
They are easily contactable and always strive to help and sort any problems that may have arisen. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.

Overall Experience 1.0 out of 5
This company is not professional at all. A care company has a duty of care to all their clients regardless of their needs. Some of the carers that cared for my grandad were amazing although some would come in and say “what does your sling go on”. My grandad would reply I don’t know, so then the carers
would put it on anyway and say “let’s hope for the best”. This is disgusting then when my nannan called the office about this the reply was “if you don’t like it you know what to do”. This is disgusting and I will be reporting this company to the CQC. Also stopped my grandad's care with no notice and caused high anxieties and worries for my family. Would not recommend their service at all.

We are sorry to hear that you feel this way. To clear up a few of your concerns, 7 days' notice was served to the local authority which was done due to a lack of carers in your Grandfathers area and…read more

The carers really cared and that's so refreshing. My dad passed away at Christmas after being looked after at home by lovely carers; so patient, so kind. My dad loved singing and they made every effort to sing along with him and lift his spirits as his health and mobility spiralled downwards. I saw
the care and concern on their faces and with their actions. They made his last few months so much more bearable and pleasant and mine too. A lovely team.
Thank you.

Thank you so much for your kind words. I know that the team truly thought a lot of your dad. I shall be sure to pass on your comments.

My mum is very comfortable with her carers. They take very good care of her personal needs, and are always very chatty, and even though my mum can't speak they always involve her in conversations. This often makes her laugh which we enjoy watching.

I am very happy with the care I receive. They are a very caring team. I don't know what to expect when they said I had to have carers coming in to help me with my personal care, but I didn't need to worry about them. I am very glad with the team I am with. I say a big thank you to them all in this pandemic.

Since needing help I find that Lifetime Home Care Ltd has met my needs with carers of a good standard, efficient and respond well to my needs and arriving very well to the times selected by me. Always cheerful on arrival and often time to chat for a few minutes. I can recommend the agency.

My brother-in-law seems happy with the care he receives which is only making a microwave dinner, toast for breakfast and a sandwich at teatime, along with a cup of tea. They also administer his tablets with water. However, I would appreciate them more if they would take more notice of the things I ask
them to do. I have even put notes on the wall and not all of the carers take notice of them. Apart from that everything seems fine.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.844)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.844) out of 10 for Lifetime Home Care Ltd is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 9 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 4.944 for Lifetime Home Care Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (51 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 54 Ratings = 4.944
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    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 Lifetime Home Care Ltd is based on 9 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 + 0.1 = 4.9
  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.
