Review from L W (Client / Service User) published on 20 April 2020 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

All carers are very friendly. Most of the time carers arrive within 15 minutes of the agreed time. I would appreciate a call if carers are likely to be more than half an hour late.

Review from A D (Daughter of Client) published on 16 March 2020 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

The service my mum receives is good, so far we have had no problems with the carers that go into my mum even though my mum needs a lot of prompting due to her mixed dementia. The carers are really good with her. The management team are also good as well if there was a problem they would be able to sort it promptly. No job is too much trouble for the care team. Would recommend them to anyone.

Review from Rosemary L (Daughter of Client) published on 4 March 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
From our very first contact with the managers, we knew this was the company we wanted to help share the care of our 95yr old father.
My sister and I live away but spend part of each week staying with our Father. We share care with Unique and this works extremely well. Unique has been quite happy to work in this way and nothing has been a problem. As well as day visits from Unique my father also has sleep in care twice a week. The combination of family care and Unique is enabling him to stay in his own bungalow which is his wish.
As a family, we are confident that Dad is taken great care of when we are not there. This was not the case with the previous care company we used.
Unique staff are professional, helpful and most importantly caring and kind.

We would have no hesitation in recommending them.

My nana really enjoyed the company of her carers. They supported her and were extremely friendly. They were well equipped to look after people with dementia and we knew she was always safe and well cared for with this agency.

Review from J C (Husband of Client) published on 29 November 2019 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Overall, my wife's care package provided her basic requirements quite well. Despite periods of not knowing if and when the nominated carers would turn up, as, at times, there seemed to be a high turnover in personnel and the visiting times would change at the last minute. The app was not very successful when changed over. The present carer is excellent in everything she did and was really appreciated by my wife and myself.

Reply from Michelle Thompson, at Unique Homecare Services Ltd

Hi J C, many thanks for your review. We provided 4 consistent carers in 2 years with a discussion when a carer left for a replacement who was personally matched. The app has given an opportunity for clients and families to be part of the Careplan, risk assessments and can see logs for the day as...

Overall Experience
I have been very pleased with the service provided. The company have been proactive in responding to changing circumstances and problems that sometimes arise. The staff are always friendly and helpful and communication is good when circumstances require an exchange of information.

Helpful suggestions are made to improve the service and the contact with other agencies increases the value of the service.

Overall Experience

My mother's carer is the most friendly, hard-working person I have met. Nothing is too much trouble. She is so good with my mother and can make her do things that I could never get her to do i.e. shower. She is a pleasure to have in my parents home.

Thank you. We will make sure this is passed onto the carer.

My mother is 97 years old and has not enjoyed any of her short admissions to hospital and residential care over the last couple of years. Unique carers have allowed her to stay in her own bungalow.

Review from Guy M (Son of Client) published on 3 April 2019 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
Unique Homecare Services have been professional, caring and well organised right from the outset.
Furthermore, the management is well educated in the specific needs of dementia care.

We have used other individuals and companies in the past but we have been struck by how 'on the ball' Unique Homecare has been.

Overall Experience

Since the carers from Unique Homecare started to attend my Brother-in-Law, I have found their care to be very professional but friendly. I am particularly impressed with their knowledge and specialised care for people with dementia. This is important to the family.

Overall Experience

I cannot recommend this company enough. From the very first meeting to discuss my elderly Mum's needs to her weekly visits to prepare my Mum's meals, the service given has been exceptional and totally professional. Added to which the company operates an app system which allows the client's family with an updated record of the carer's visit, which we found invaluable and gave us complete peace of mind.
