My regular carer are 100%. For example, a particular carer comes in and does all that is needed to do. I don't bother about anything.

Overall Experience

Stay away at all costs. Dreadful care company that simply don’t care. Late calls, missed calls, carers rushing to leave, cold food, leave doors unlocked, sponsored workers making communication with elderly patients difficult, rude office staff, phones never answered. Mum never felt so alone and uncared about.

Very prompt, ensure medication is on time and very pleasant and friendly. They ask if there is anything else they can do. Would prefer a female care worker in the morning and night to help with personal hygiene and care.

Review from L H (Sister of Client) published on 17 November 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Would have given no stars at all if possible. Not a usual complainer at all and not one for reviews but absolute shambles. Carers do not turn up and always an excuse given. When they do eventually turn up hours late and after numerous chaser calls, they are inexperienced and don’t know how to care for the service user. Also don’t always lock the door leaving disabled service users in a dangerous and vulnerable position. Never known anything like it - causing so much stress to the family. Ombudsman is the next stage as despite frequent promises nothing changes. Absolutely at our wits' end with this company. Feel extremely sorry for poor service users who don’t have anyone to turn to when they are left and they don’t turn up to feed them and get them out of bed. Terrible experience with this company.

Review from S R (Husband of Client) published on 30 August 2023 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

The carers that visit are mainly excellent. Inexperienced carers are left by themselves too early. Carers need to be regulars so as to build a rapport with clients, too often visiting carers are often changed. Also, mainly at the weekend, the staff are inexperienced and due to lack of carers have picked up extra calls which means the time of call can vary wildly. If any problems with the time of visits this should be relayed by the office to clients.

Overall Experience

Do not like men coming, some days I have different carers morning and afternoon and some I have never met before and do not seem to know my requirements. During term time I have classes which begin at 10:15 and carers sometimes don't come until 9:30 which is cutting it fine. I think my times may need reviewing.

Overall Experience

I am very happy with my regular carers. I am a religious sister and it upsets me when I have a male carer. Also, at the weekend, the replacement carers are sometimes very late, coming sometimes at noon instead of 9 am. I get very anxious when they are late and it is not easy to get in contact to know if they are coming. Also, when they are late, I miss the religious service.

The regular carers are excellent in all aspects of caring. Problems happen when new carers come who might have not been before - this is very frustrating.

Review from M C (Daughter of Client) published on 24 May 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Carers wouldn't use Mum's name and called her another name for some reason. Refilled drinks with dirty glass from the day before, made Mum sit back on a wet chair, despite getting told the chair was wet and left 14 hours with a wet pad. Came and went when they wanted, despite declining male carers at the setup interview, a male carer came every day, still no care plan in place. Finally got rid of them.

Thank you for your review of the care received. We take all feedback very seriously.

Carers don't arrive at times stated and are always rushing when arriving. They have missed visits leaving the client vulnerable and hungry. The lack of personal care offered to the client is poor and different carers arrive with no idea about the client's needs.

Overall Experience
Low standard of care. Poor service.
The carers are not visiting my father the agreed times. Three times in 2 months the carers did not turn up and we had to contact the main office to trace them.

My father's care plan got lost and it was not replaced. As a result, there are carers visiting that do not know what they have to do.

Helen Thorpe Job Title: Registered Manager
Helen Thorpe

I have worked in the care industry for 10 years.

I started off working as a care worker. I enjoyed working in this role, but I desired progression. I completed my NVQ 2 and 3 in adult health and social care.

Subsequently, I joined Hales and was promoted to Quality Assessment Officer, a position that I found truly fulfilling. I served in this role for 4 months. Later, I applied for the Care Coordinator position within Hales and was successful in my interview. I performed this role for several years, eventually becoming the Lead Care Coordinator.

Following this, an opportunity arose for the Deputy Manager role, and I applied for it. I was fortunate to be selected, and subsequently, the position of Registered Manager became available. I have been serving as the Registered Manager for Hales for 8 months now, and I genuinely enjoy my role. Currently, I am in the process of completing my NVQ 5.

Throughout my career, I have dedicated 6.5 years to Hales Home Care in Leeds, and I find great satisfaction in coming to work every day. In my leisure time, I enjoy going to the gym every morning before work, as well as spending quality time with my family. I have 5 children, 1 girl and 4 boys. Additionally, I am fond of watching soaps and indulging in captivating true stories.

Melissa Sanderson Job Title: Quality Assessment Officer
Melissa Sanderson

I have been working in the care sector for 5 years. I initially started my career as a care worker, a role which I found fulfilling. However, I soon recognised an opportunity for advancement and decided to pursue the position of Quality Assurance Officer (QAO). I successfully went through the interview process and secured the role.

One aspect of my job that I particularly enjoy is meeting our service users for the first time and conducting assessments. In addition to these responsibilities, I also handle safeguarding, audits, CQC notifications, and various other tasks as part of my role. Every day at work is rewarding, and I have been with Hales for the past 5 years.

I have completed A-levels in Health and Social Care, achieving a B grade. I also studied Psychology. Outside of work, I have two children, a girl and a boy, whom I adore spending time with. My hobbies include swimming, spending quality time with my family, and going on holidays.

Tracey Robinson Job Title: Quality Assessment Officer
Tracey Robinson

I have been working in care for 34 years. I began my journey as a care worker, a role that brought me great joy. For nearly 7 years, I have been working at Hales. Initially, I worked as a care worker for 6.5 years before deciding to apply for the Recruiter position. However, I soon realised that I missed the hands-on aspect of caring. Fortunately, an opportunity arose within Hales for a Quality Assessment Officer (QAO) role. I successfully interviewed for the position and I must say that I thoroughly enjoy my job, particularly interacting with our service users and conducting assessments. Furthermore, I have completed a Nursing Diploma to enhance my skills in the field.

During my leisure time, I enjoy going on holiday and spending quality time with my children.

Chloe Warren Job Title: Care Coordinator
Chloe Warren

I have worked in care for 7 years, both as a Care Corker and a Care Coordinator. I have thoroughly enjoyed all my roles within the care industry.

During my time in college, I pursued aviation studies as I had a passion for travelling and desired practical experience in this field. Concurrently, I worked part-time at my previous company, where I developed a deep affection for the job.

Throughout my career, I have established exceptional professional relationships, and I eagerly anticipate daily interactions with everyone I encounter.

I always strive to assist to the best of my ability, and I maintain an open-door policy, welcoming any requests for help or support.

Jamie Leigh Job Title: Care Assistant
Jamie Leigh

I have worked in the care field for 3 years as a Mentor/Care Assistant.

During a 5-month placement at a nursing home, I had the opportunity to collaborate closely with a Clinical Nurse Specialist, which allowed me to expand my knowledge in the field of Nursing. I love to help people where I can. I like a challenge.

I love to travel and spend time with my family.
