Review from Ron G (Brother of Client) published on 28 April 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Lone Care took over the care of my brother from another care company. I was not sure of how good his care had been in the past as I live so far away. Since Lone Care have taken over his care I have noticed the improvements when I visit him. Lone Care have a system in place where I can see all the carers notes for every visit that they make. Natalie and Glen the managers could not be more helpful if they tried. They have passed on messages to and from the carers.
I would like to thank everybody at Lone Care who have been involved with his care.

I would recommend Lone Care to anybody who needs to arrange care for themselves or others.

Thank you again Lone Care.

Review from Jane A (Friend of Client) published on 8 March 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I am lasting power of attorney for a lady with mental health and mobility difficulties who has had a number of carers from a number of different care companies in the past. She says her Lone Care carers are the best that she has ever had. She says they like her and don't think she is a problem.
I have found the people in the Lone Care office and the carers very caring, understanding, helpful and professional. I have also found them to be a stabilising influence on the lady I am responsible for. Last week the lady I am responsible for was ill and Lone Care were very flexible, doing different things than normal to support her.

Having Lone Care look after the lady has been reassuring for me and taken a weight off my shoulders. I would definitely recommend Lone Care to anyone in my situation, and for anyone with mental health and mobility difficulties.

Service provided by Lone Care Services is quite satisfactory. Carers are almost very honest and pleasant and treat the client with respect and dignity. 90% of the time they are punctual. Most of the carers are clean and pleasant.

Review from Louisa B (Daughter of Client) published on 5 February 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My mother receives care from the agency three times a day. She has Alzheimer's and lives in our home and has received care from the agency for approximately 3 and a half years. The carers support with her daily personal care as well as offer companionship. Mum has a main carer visiting daily, and a number of other carers who provide care. We are extremely impressed with the care offered. The carers are friendly and approachable. They support Mum with professionalism and are calm and caring. They are able to deal with changes in Mum’s care needs. Mum enjoys their company and seems relaxed in their presence.

Review from Linda S (Daughter of Client) published on 5 February 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My 95-year-old father has been looked after by Lone Care Services since 2019. This by far has been a difficult year for everyone I cannot speak highly enough about the carers that look after Dad on a daily basis, always willing to do whatever he wants done that day, he looks forward to seeing them and having a friendly chat. If they are concerned about his health etc I am always contacted. I am confident that Dad is safe and happy and that gives me great peace of mind.

Review from Jennie O (Daughter of Client) published on 3 February 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My mum has been with Lone Care for some time now and the carers that are in attendance have excelled in their delivery of duty and care. Each carer has gone above and beyond in their role as carers. The service provided as given my family much comfort and confidence that my mum has been cared for in the correct manner. To date, the carers in place are an asset to this agency and the office staff have been extremely supportive in assuring the consistency of its carers. Thank you!

Review from John E (Son of Client) published on 23 June 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My Mother has had 3 other care agencies over the last 3 years, all promising trained and experienced staff! Then in early 2020, we changed to Lone Care Services, from the start all the care staff have shown a high level of knowledge and training in the care of my Mother. They are always very polite/ kind and always explain what they are doing and why - this takes away some of my Mother's anxiety.
The care of my mother, who has Alzheimer's, Dementia and is Paranoid is not easy, but the carers from Lone Care Services always show her respect and dignity and I wish I'd known about Lone Care Services from the start of her care.

I would highly recommend Lone Care Services and I have even passed these comments to my local Social Services.

We really appreciate your kind remarks. We will ensure your valued feedback gets passed onto all carers who look after your mother.

Lone Care provided care for my father upon his return from hospital after major surgery to recover at home. Carers were trained and professional and generally arrived at the requested time. Management was very helpful and flexible with my dad's care needs. Can't thank them enough for their great work.

Review from L R A (Sister of Client) published on 15 January 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Thus far, Kare Plus has proved to be a reliable company. If a carer is indisposed then we are informed as soon as possible whereas in our previous experiences with care companies, we were let down on many occasions without even an explanation or notification.
We really appreciate the efforts of the administrator and staff to deliver their service.

We wouldn't hesitate to recommend the company.

It is important to nurture care staff and make them feel truly valued. Kare Plus tries hard.

Rewards are beneficial. Holiday pay would help a lot. Some companies pay a pittance but care staff have to live and keep their families. I hope the Government will wake up to this fact then more people might join the workforce.
