Overall Experience

We used All About Home Care for two years before recently having to switch to a live-in carer company. The carers we met were always lovely. They were friendly, happy, reliable, trustworthy, just excellent in every way. The management was organised and very helpful and understanding. We have had no hesitation in recommending them to friends.

Overall Experience
My father and I have been using All About Home Care for mum for several years now. It started with three morning visits a week but as my mother's Alzheimer's has progressed we are now having two visits every day. We are extremely happy with all the care and support from all of the team. The carers are always on time, compassionate, caring and always professional. The care manager is always in constant contact with me and keeping me up to date with everything.

I would definitely recommend All About Home Care.

Overall Experience

So pleased we chose All About Home Care when looking for this kind of help for Mum. From initial enquiry 4 months ago, through interview and then wobbly acceptance from Mum at the beginning, we now have a really great carer who Mum looks forward to seeing twice a day. Especially now, through these uncertain times of the pandemic, we know she has company while she can’t see all her friends, and we have reassurance she is in safe hands. Thank you to everyone at All About Home Care. Totally deserve the Outstanding CQC rating.

All About Home Care have looked after my client for over three years starting when they took over from another provider the client and I were unhappy with. All About Home Care establish rapport with their clients, arrive on time, minimise alteration of care staff and imaginatively deal with issues as they arise all in a professional manner.

Overall Experience

I would have no hesitation in recommending All About Homecare who supported my mum with her care for 10 months with up to 3 visits/day. I found the team were reliable, caring, consistent and trustworthy. Communication was excellent and I had regular discussions with the manager who was a constant support and all suggestions were met with an empathetic, "can do" attitude. An example would be that routine was very important to my mum and visits were always absolutely on time without exception. I totally understand the dilemma and stress for relatives and carers when searching for the best care for their loved ones and so would not post a positive review lightly. From my experience, I can do so without hesitation.

I cannot thank All About Home Care enough for the excellent care they provided for my parents. From the initial contact, I found the care management team friendly, helpful and efficient, which also applied to the carers that visited my parents. I found the reports written after every visit invaluable, and the communication between the carers, care manager, and the family was excellent. I would not hesitate to recommend All About Home Care.

Overall Experience

I have a weekly visit at present and my carer is a friendly, caring lady. She gives a thoroughly good service and is happy to carry out all allotted tasks. Visits have always been on the days and times arranged and I look forward to her warm and friendly “hello”.

I was thoroughly assessed at the start and am well impressed by the documentation I have been given.

This sets out my medical profile and has a section for ongoing reports by the carer, of all work carried out at each visit. My accounts from the office are clearly set out and easy to understand.

As my need for care becomes greater I feel confident that this excellent service will continue. I am confident that I have chosen the right company to care for my future needs.

I would happily recommend All About Home Care to anyone who needs care. They have shown a determination to look after me in a very professional manner and they are lovely people!

Overall Experience
From the initial communication with Homecare and any discussions or questions since commencing with them I have found them very easy and professional to deal with and would highly recommend them.

My mother has Alzheimer’s and I am her full-time carer but using Homecare to give me a break each week has been invaluable. She is taken out by a delightful lady who treats mum with full respect and the dignity she deserves and this has developed a wonderful friendship with her. She is offering invaluable support to us both.

It has been a great way to introduce other carers to mum which will, in turn, make it easier to use others to help me as time goes on and I need more support.

I would definitely recommend Homecare to anyone who was looking for this type of service.

I can recommend this agency unreservedly. My mother is very well supported by the same carer each week. Indeed, she looks forward to her visits.
The carer is always well dressed and performs her duties to a very high standard.
I am also impressed by the detailed and accurate reporting.

At present, my mother is able to perform most duties in the home for herself but as her condition gets worse I will have no hesitation in increasing the visits.

Regular visits from the Carers during the week offers my parents extra support and care in the comfort of their own home. Help with jobs around the home makes life easier and trips to supermarkets or the town keeps life more interesting and enjoyable. Professional and caring at all times.

Review from Chris H (Son of Client) published on 28 December 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer's 4 years ago and as her condition deteriorated she needed increasing home care to help her remain independent but safe. We started with one carer visiting once a day, for an hour, five days a week and finished with 3 visits, for 4 hours a day, 7 days a week. The Manager at All About Home Care was always friendly and professional, putting together a team of carers my mother and I came to rely on for everything. They helped her stay living independently for much longer than she would otherwise have been able to and gave us peace of mind, knowing that if there were a problem, we would be notified straight away.

I would have no hesitation in recommending All About Home Care to anyone considering employing a caring, friendly homecare agency.

Review from Lindsey B (Daughter of Client) published on 15 November 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
All About Home Care have provided an extremely professional and reliable service since we started using the company to provide personal care for our mother over a year ago. The carers are always friendly and well trained. The excellent care provided is not rushed due to the provision of adequate travel time between calls to the carers and we always know that the carer will arrive on time.
The manager has been very supportive when care needs have changed and it has been easy to add extra visits during the day when needed, both long-term to provide additional help and short-term when our parents needed extra support due to illness.

Earlier this year, the agency began to provide care for our father too and again this was no trouble with the carers taking time to understand the best way to support him so that he was comfortable with the care being provided.

Review from Ellie (Daughter of Client) published on 6 July 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Life has been easier since All About Home Care were recommended to me. The hourly rate is higher than our first agency but I feel this is worthwhile: the level of management, liaison and reliability is much better, and the care is not rushed. There have been a few occasions when the carer has alerted me to health issues - including potentially life-saving - and I feel they have her best interests at heart. They took the time to understand her, are sensitive to her drive for independence, and will experiment with different approaches until they work out what's best for mum. When I am worried about mum, AAHC's Manager has been a good sounding board and a reliable source of advice. The best testament I can give is that mum's health has improved. Despite various ailments, at 91 she is not on any medication, has avoided surgery that was thought inevitable, is enjoying living independently in her own home, and - thankfully - gets the encouragement she needs to stay clean.

Overall Experience
I have a form of motor neurone disease and have been using All About Home Care for 6 months. They are exceptionally good.
The carers are friendly, attentive and listen to me, which I welcome. They are also punctual so I never worry about whether or not they will be attending, which wasn't the case with my former care company.
The management set high standards. They ensure that carers are properly trained and motivated, and allow sufficient time between visits so that, if I need extra time, my carers can provide it without constantly looking at the clock. I think that the management's view is that, if they have happy clients and happy staff then everything else will fall into place.

Finally, not only would I recommend All About Home Care, I have!

I cannot praise All About Home Care highly enough. At every point, the team, particularly the manager, went the extra mile taking on board our lack of knowledge and familiarity with home care and the urgent and changing problems that needed addressing. All About Home Care does not treat fulfilling their client's needs as just a job but with genuine and credible engagement.

Review from Judy B (Daughter of Client) published on 9 November 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My mother was eighty-eight years old and lived alone. She had a distressing reaction to an operation in June and needed care and support at home. We contacted All About Home Care and had a visit from their manager to access my mother's needs. She was very professional and reassuring. We agreed on a care plan which was quickly put into place.
The carers were absolutely lovely. They took time and patience with my mother, who has moderate dementia and the Manager kept in constant contact with me. Most of the time it was the same carers so my mother had familiarity. Not living locally, it was a huge relief to know my mother was well cared for and secure.

I would recommend All About Home Care without any reservations, they are a professional caring company.

Overall Experience

We have been using home care for my parents for over a year. My Father 96 and Mother, 89 with Alzheimer's.

Care: Exemplary, you could hardly fault the professionalism, efficiency, reliability, patience and skills of the team of ladies/men who care for my very challenging parents. I feel some of the team almost love them! The carers provide cooked lunch and dinner, hygiene, drug administration and all forms of domestic help. Ironing washing up, cleaning ovens etc are able to make sensible suggestions which help me enormously. They talk to my parents and do not just arrive to do tasks. They take time to find out about their lives and provide a much-needed form of friendship to my parents.

Administration: Precise and responsive. Very knowledgeable and efficient.

Communication: Remarkable. The management pay attention to detail, are courteous and VERY reliable. They have gone above and beyond the call of duty on numerous occasions, even when off duty!

Bills: Efficient and accurate

Overall Experience

I couldn't have wished for better care until the very end for my darling wife's life.

The care manager and her team were caring, compassionate, kind, respectful, thoughtful and considerate, always turned up on time and when they were supposed to do so!

Always kept me informed of any developments as they occurred and treated me with respect and total support in my decision to have her at home and to help care for her until the end of her life.

They all became part of my extended family and it was very touching when some of the team and their care manager turned up for the funeral service.

My family were very impressed with the friendly way they worked with my wife and for her comfort and many commented on the commitment of the girls which seemed on many occasions to be over and above what was needed, I do believe that they all became very fond of her during the time they were with us.

I have missed them being here, even now after she died in May and I'm so glad I had this company.
