Melody Care Alton Reviews (27)

Over all time Melody Care Alton has 27 reviews.
My parents are very independent and when they finally agreed to having help it was reluctantly. Melody Care were supportive but more importantly, they were empathetic. Soon their main carer became part of the family. She took time to get to know them and the things that interested them. My mum was included in decisions going forward and was made to feel that she still had an important role in the care of my dad.
Communication is excellent and when the unexpected happens they are always willing to go the extra mile to help.
A fabulous team.
The management and staff, are always very friendly and helpful. They are always willing to listen and will always do what they can to help. Patient in some difficult circumstances. Thank you , all the management and staff of the Winchester branch.
All the carers we have met have carried out their duties professionally and caring towards both my husband and myself. They are taking the time to familiarise themselves with our situation and also being on time or even early for my husband's morning shower.
Their care, attention to detail and professionalism is exemplary.
Melody Care is unique as all their team are extremely competent in delivering care, however, they also make all their clients feel as if they are part of the family.
They are respectful but incredibly friendly and often go the extra mile to ensure their clients receive the best care possible.
The team have been wonderful for my mother and she always spoke incredibly highly of them.
We cannot recommend this company highly enough. Thank you.
Their timekeeping is good and usually someone contacts me to let me know if the carer is running late.
They are good value for money and a joy to have in my home.
My mother has been looked after by them for almost a year now. She was in hospital recently and very poorly when she came out. The care team all stepped up above and beyond working much longer than they had to.
I’m happy to say owing to their care, she is now back to her old self.
I have no hesitation in recommending them and have even spoken to the hospice to let them know how good they are.
