Review from Catherine G (Daughter of Client) published on 8 July 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Platinum Care first supported my dad for 2 weeks when he was discharged from hospital in March. From the first time I met Zoe with Dad, I noticed how the company pays attention to individual needs. They are honest about what can, and cannot be provided. Sadly, this has not been my experience with some other care providers.

When Dad needed some extra support later this year, I contacted Platinum Care again and they were responsive at very short notice. They are flexible in approach, and we were able to create care visits bespoke to Dad's needs. They keep me updated on an APP, which gives me reassurance that Dad is being well looked after. My faith in home care has been restored. Thank you Zoe and the team.

Reply from Katie Kefford, Commercial and Regulatory lead at Platinum Care Solutions

Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback. It was a pleasure to support your dad, and we're delighted that our person-centred approach, flexibility, and communication gave you confidence and peace of mind. Your kind words mean a great deal to the whole team. Thank you for trusting us with your dad's care, and please know we're always here to help whenever needed.

Overall Experience

Platinum Care from back in early August 2025 have been a great support to my parents, especially our mother. My brother and I live a good distance away and Platinum Care are our support on their 3 visits a day. Each visit is carried out at a very high standard. The app is a great help as its an instant to every visit that is written up on departure. Any concerns they may have I am contacted by the manager. Any medical issues they will complete an eform to allow a doctors home visit from the Health Centre.

Overall Experience
This was our first experience of needing to arrange care which was required following my mum's stay in hospital and subsequent dementia diagnosis.
Having lived independently, albeit with some help from family prior to going into hospital, mum was initially reluctant to accept that she needed help. However over the last few months she has accepted the support that Platinum Care's Hayling Island branch offer her and now looks forward to their daily visits.
The visits also provide me with peace of mind that mum is being well looked after and I have always found the carers and everyone in the office helpful and supportive when I have spoken to them.

I'm happy to recommend Platinum Care.

Reply from Katie Kefford, Commercial and Regulatory lead at Platinum Care Solutions

Thank you so much for your kind words. We're truly pleased to hear that your mum has grown comfortable with the support from our Hayling Island team and is enjoying her daily visits. It means a great deal to us to know we can provide both quality care for your mum and peace of mind for you. Your recommendation is very much appreciated, and we'll be sure to share your feedback with the team.

Overall Experience

I have been with Platinum Care, Home Care, on Hayling Island for about 6 weeks so far. I truly cannot praise them enough for the care they have provided me. From first contact, making the arrangements, I have been treated to a high level of friendly professionalism and respect.

Wellbeing is at the heart of their care, ensuring what they do is what I want doing, always checking with me and assuming nothing. What they do, is done to a high standard every visit.

I am treated as a person and not a number or a burden. Nothing is too much for them. They genuinely each deserve 10 stars for being super carers.

I am gutted (though thrilled) that PCC has now found me my forever home in Portsmouth and in a few more weeks I will move. I am hoping the Porchester team will be able to take over and continue the excellent service provided by the group.

Absolutely amazing care providers. The level of care is outstanding. All carers are extremely kind, helpful, caring and compassionate and go above and beyond every time. Personal beliefs are always respected. The carers don't just perform tasks, they truly listen and engage. At the end of every visit the carer will ask my mother if there's anything else she requires. The carers are always very happy, cheerful, well spoken and polite and engage with us as well as my mother. My mother is always pleased to see these lovely carers. They genuinely make her feel happy and relaxed. I can contact management any time of day/evening and get a response pretty much straight away! Nothing is ever a problem! They bend over backwards for us. Thank you for your ongoing care.

Review from A B (Wife of Client) published on 13 May 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My husband became bed bound with demetia in March 2025. I had been using Platinum before that to wash and shave him. I moved them up to four visits a day and also live in care to enable me to have holidays and make monthly trips to London to the ballet. With the live in care they also cared for my elderley lurcher Moley, who loved them.
At all times the carers were punctual, efficient whilst always caring. He was always happy to see them. They also provided a much needed liason with the community nurses, the doctors surgery and an equipment services company.
This all enabled me to keep him at home until he died in January 2026. A carer was with me when he died and she efficiently dealt with getting the community nurse to certify the death and the undertakers.
Altogether an efficient and cost effective service in difficult circumstances.

I could not have asked for more and I always recommend them when asked.

I have not needed care before, and I was reluctant to do so. I need not have worried. All the carers have treated me with dignity, making me feel relaxed and cared for. They enabled me to make progress with my mobility and helped me regain some independence. During October I had medical problems.The carers were very supportive in getting me treatment from the NHS. I have had lots of tests which I would probably not have received if I hadn't had Platinum Care.

Overall Experience
My mother was a client of Platinum Care Solutions for over 5 years before moving into residential care at the end of 2024.
Over the time the carers were an absolute godsend to both my mum and myself, not only did they provide mum with an excellent standard of care and daily doses of friendship and kindness, but they provided me with constant support and mum would definitely have needed to move into residential care a lot sooner if it hadn't been for them.
Mum and I both built good relationships with her carers over the years and I would go as far as saying we now consider her senior carer to be a close family friend who will continue to be a part of mine and mum's lives even though she is no longer her carer.

I would thoroughly recommend Platinum Care Solutions to anyone needing care and support for a loved one in their own home as the staff are amazing and really do go above and beyond, thank you Platinum for everything, I couldn't have cared for mum without you!

Ensuring individuals maintain their independence at home with assistance from community care workers is a core value of mine. In my role at Platinum Care Solutions, I am dedicated to creating a secure and supportive environment for both our service users and care workers.

By focusing on the well-being and safety of those within our care, we aim to foster a sense of security and assistance.

I consider it a personal responsibility to contribute to the well-being of our local community, particularly in acknowledgement of the invaluable contributions made by past generations. Engaging with events in Portchester is not only enjoyable for me but also an opportunity to extend the reach of Platinum Care Solutions, allowing us to give back to the community and make a positive impact.

As a Care Coordinator, I craft schedules that align with the unique requirements of our individual clients. My goal is to ensure that each service user receives the highest level of care possible. This involves not only the selection of the right care workers but also the continuous training and bolstering of their confidence in their roles.

My unwavering commitment is to meticulously match the right team with each client, ensuring that service users receive the precise support they need at the appropriate times.
