Ashbourne Quality Care came highly recommended to us and they proved to be outstanding. They cared for my mother in her home for one and a half years. 100% reliable they never missed a visit - twice a day, seven days a week. We just knew they would walk through the door with a smile, no matter what
the conditions. The carers were so kind to my mother and family. They were a pleasure to have in the house. A totally professional caring service delivered with human kindness. Wonderful. Just wonderful.
Reply from Diane Wilson, Manager at Ashbourne Quality Care LtdThank you so much for your lovely review. I can assure you that it will be very appreciated by all the staff involved with your Mother's care. Our care staff will be extremely honoured to receive such praise, and it will mean a lot to them.

Ashbourne Quality Care have been looking after our Dad (two carers four times a day) until he recently became too ill to stay at home. They were highly recommended to us by a neighbour, and we could not have hoped for better care. The management has always been efficient, responsive and supportive.
The carers have all been absolutely excellent - caring, positive, friendly, totally reliable, and have treated dad with kindness and respect.
Thank you so much to everyone involved in Dad's care.
Reply from Diane Wilson, Manager at Ashbourne Quality Care LtdThank you so much for your kind words. They will mean so much to all the carers who have looked after your Dad. It was a privilege and an honour to be chosen to care for him. I will make sure that the carers see this. Thank you.

Carers always appear happy to see you nothing too much trouble. Standard of care for my mum is just as one would hope for they're parents. The management always manage to accomodate if we need to cancel or vary a visit time. Always a pleasure to invite any of the care staff into our home. Always left
feeling that the staff care about what they are doing and how they are doing it.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Ashbourne Quality Care have taken care of my Stepfather for a number of years now and throughout that time I have found their service to be exceptional. The carers who currently visit 4 times a day have always taken such good care of my Stepfather and are always professional and helpful. This consistently
high quality of service is also evident in the management of his care. There have been a number of times when I have had terrific support from the team in the office. Finally, I would be confident to recommend Ashbourne Quality Care to anyone who is looking for someone to help take care of their loved one.
Reply from Diane Wilson, Manager at Ashbourne Quality Care LtdThank you so much for your kind words. They are very much appreciated. It means a lot to all the wonderful carers to know they are doing a great job.

My wife has been receiving care (one call per day) for the last six years and is very satisfied with the care provided. All the girls are appropriately dressed, take all precautions such as face masks and gloves and treat her efficiently with care and respect. They have not missed a single day, even
during Covid. We would like to thank Ashbourne Quality Care for the service we have received from them since November 2018 and are sure they will continue the good work.
Reply from Diane Wilson, Registered Manager at Ashbourne Quality Care LtdThank you so much for your kind words. The staff will be so pleased to read your review. It will mean a lot to them. It has been a pleasure to attend your wife. Long may it continue.

I've been meaning to write a review for some time now.
I can't thank Ashbourne Quality Care enough for the care and compassion they gave my nana.
Ashbourne Quality Care cared for my nana in the last few weeks of her life.
They were very kind and compassionate, they treated my nana with privacy and
dignity.
They were very supportive towards me and my family.
Thank you to you all.
Reply from Diane Wilson, Manager at Ashbourne Quality Care LtdThank you so much for your lovely review. I know that your nana was very precious to you and we were honoured to be asked to provide her care for the last part of her life. I am so pleased that you were happy with us.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum needed home care help after she suffered a fall, but she also struggled with the use of her hands and found it very hard to dress herself or get her own meals, etc. I cannot praise the carers enough. They were absolutely amazing and took such good care of my mum until her passing away in July.
I am so grateful that Mum had the care that she received to make her life more bearable, plus she enjoyed their company.
Reply from Diane Wilson, Manager at Ashbourne Quality Care LtdThank you for your heartfelt review. Our staff are thrilled to receive it. We were delighted that we were able to care for her before she passed. The staff all thought a lot about her, and they got to know her very well. We hope that your Mum got a lot out of our visits and that she got some comfort from them.

My father was very reluctant to have a care package however he has found the experience extremely positive. This is in no small part down to the quality of the care team at Ashbourne Quality Care. They have dealt with him with respect, patience and dignity and are all very kind. He enjoys the chats
as he is now housebound and wonders why he didn't agree to have home care sooner! I particularly appreciate the communication from the team, keeping me in the loop of any changing health conditions and issues. It is a welcome reassurance.

All the staff provided the highest level of care for my mum which enabled her to continue to live in her home, which she so desperately wanted to do. Her home became her world and the carers provided a level of personal care that is above and beyond their professional standards. They provided a human
and compassionate element to my mum's care even during the painful latter days. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Ashbourne Quality Care for the care of your elderly family.
Reply from Diane Wilson, Manager at Ashbourne Quality Care LtdThank you so much for your lovely words. Our team will appreciate this so much.
As you know, our team loved your mum and were all very honoured to have looked after her. The latter days were difficult but we know that she wanted us there with her and we were very happy to be there for her. She was a very lovely lady and I know the staff miss her greatly.

I cannot thank this company enough, they have all been amazing with my father. The carers are so patient and go at his own pace. He feels so relaxed around each and every carer that attends to him and I feel relaxed knowing my dad is at ease, happy and comfortable. Amazing, thank you again.

My mum has been receiving care from Ashbourne Quality Care since September 2022. Mum wasn't sure at first, being someone who valued her privacy and was worried about strangers coming into her home. How things changed! Within a very short time, Mum fell in love with all of the team who help support
her. They visit four times a day and treat her like a person not a job. She has vascular dementia and some days are better than others. The team are so thoughtful, show an interest in her and have such patience on difficult days. Piece of mind for me (I also have a great relationship with the team) and I know that I can call any time to discuss things I'm worried about. Cannot recommend it highly enough.
Reply from Diane Wilson, Manager at Ashbourne Quality Care LtdThank you so much. I’m so pleased that your mum enjoys being with her carers. I know they enjoy being with her. No two days are the same but they always work through everything together with her. Your mum is a delight.

I find the carers that come to my elderly neighbour really caring to him in all cases, he is always neat and tidy and he enjoys most of the food that they tend to give him. He gets very lonely so they have a cheerful banter with him which he always enjoys and he always says they are all lovely, even
though he can't remember any of their names except the one gentleman that goes into him.

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.925 for Ashbourne Quality Care Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (49 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 53 Ratings = 4.925

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Ashbourne Quality 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 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 = 4.7
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
