I get on with the girls really well, they help where needed. The little things they help with, without me asking them to. I have asked for an increase for an extra shower day a week which they have accommodated.
We are always delighted to hear about how well our team are doing and that you value them so much. I will be sure to pass on this feedback to the carers.
Carefour staff really do make the world of difference! Highly recommended!
We are delighted you were able to have the time to give us a review. We will pass your kind comments onto our care team as they love to hear such lovely feedback like this. It really makes a difference to them too.
We really are very pleased with the service and cannot fault from start to finish. Will recommend. No complaints to report either at all. We are grateful to all the staff, they have their own personalities and own ways of doing things that result in such a good job.
We are so pleased you are happy with the care you receive, it is so important to us. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review when you are so busy, it is appreciated. We will share your review with your care team, they will be really happy that you would recommend Carefour to others. Many thanks, once again.
All the girls are lovely and sweet. They help with whatever I need doing. Will recommend them to anyone. They have been polite and understanding with the help I need, and they are lovely to have a chat too.
Hello Paul and thank you so much for the very kind review of our care service. We will be sure to pass on your lovely comments to our team.
I would recommend the carers.
Thank you so much for your kind words. I will ensure your feedback is passed not our care team and office staff.
We contacted Carefour Home Care and Live-in Care to arrange care for my elderly mother. The communication from start to finish was amazing. The manager talked through all the details and explained the process making sure everything was handled to our liking. She answered all the queries I had promptly and made sure we were happy with everything. I felt it was about putting my mother as a priority, something that was very important to us as a family. The care that has been provided has been excellent and offers us comfort that all is well with our mother when we can't be near her. She has commented on how much she enjoys the ladies' company and support. Thank you very much Carefour.
We are very grateful for you spending time to review us and what a review. Thank you for your kind comments. We will be sure to pass these on to our team. It really means so much to the carers to receive praise and recognition from families for the care they provide. Thank you.
I’m not usually one for writing online reviews but I just wanted to show my appreciation for everything that Carefour Home Care have done for us, dad really has become fond of all the care team. I can’t thank the office staff enough for all their help and organisation; the level of care provided can’t be faulted in any way and I have already recommended you to others.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review, we were delighted to be told you had done one for us. It is a privilege to look after your Dad, your care team will be so pleased to hear that you are happy with the support he is receiving. We value your feedback and will share it with the...
After having a poor experience with another provider I was recommended Carefour Home Care by a family friend when looking for a care package for my elderly aunt. Throughout the whole process, and from my initial contact, the Carefour team could not have been any more helpful, answering all my (sometimes trivial) questions and putting my mind totally at ease and as a result, I am now confident that a dear family member is receiving the valuable care that she deserves and needs. Thank you Carefour, I will definitely be recommending you.
Thank you for leaving such a lovely review, we appreciate you taking the time to do so. We are delighted that you are pleased with the care your family member is receiving, our care team and office teams will be so pleased to know that you are happy. It is important to us that everyone in the process feels supported and cared for. Many thanks, once again.
I started using Carefour Home Care when I wanted to visit friends for 4 nights. My daughters 'found' Carefour and a charming lady was provided to look after my husband who suffers from dementia and very poor mobility. I could not have been more pleased with the service provided by the carer and all the admin staff. I will definitely be using Carefour in the future.
We are so pleased you found our live-in care service so helpful for both yourself and your husband. We are very grateful for your kind words and I will be passing these onto the care team. We are here for any further help in the future and will happily assist.
Happy with the girls.
Thank you so much for your review of our service. We greatly appreciate your wonderful feedback and will pass this onto our team.
The support I have received so far has been amazing, the staff and management are supportive and helped me come a long way so far. Couldn't fault the service.
Thank you for leaving such a lovely review. We appreciate you taking the time to let us know how you feel and the staff will be proud of your feedback. It was kind of you to mention the management team, too, as they are working very hard behind the scenes!
I am very pleased and happy with the carers. They are very good and kind. I can thoroughly recommend your services. Thank you all.
Our lovely carers will be so pleased to know you are happy with the care you are having, it is really important to them to have feedback and we will certainly let them know. Thank you so much for recommending our services, we really appreciate it.
Unfortunately, I was not very happy with the care agency I was discharged from hospital with and was having panic attacks at night thinking about them coming the next day. So we informed the social worker that I wanted to change agencies and my mum phoned Carefour and spoke to the manager who said they had capacity and she was able to come out that afternoon (this was before lockdown). We instantly got a really good feeling, and I was so excited about starting with Carefour. All of the carers have been really lovely - they are so bubbly and chatty and are also excellent carers in helping me. The only reason I am leaving CareFour is because I am going back to the in-house carers where I live as they now have capacity. I cannot recommend CareFour highly enough for anyone needing care in the community. Thank you so much to all of your lovely carers.
Thank you for leaving such a lovely review - we are sad to see you go, but you know where we are if you ever need us again. Wishing you all the very best.
From the moment I phoned Carefour to see if they had capacity to provide care to my daughter, I was impressed. The manager came out to assess and I immediately had confidence in the ability of the agency to provide sensitive, person-centred care. I was not wrong, they provided excellent care calls, four times a day from March to the present day.
We are so pleased that you are happy with your care, thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We will let your care team know how happy you are with your ongoing care. It is a privilege to look after your daughter, thank you for choosing Carefour.
It has been reassuring to have their support during a difficult few weeks, giving me the confidence to manage more independently.
We are immensely grateful for you taking the time to give us such a wonderful review. We take enormous pride in what we do and so to hear we are achieving what we set out to do is heartwarming. We will be sure to pass your kind comments onto our care team.
From the initial visit by management and senior carer, we have received exceptional care from the team. The carers come punctually and treat mum with gentle care, respectfully and with good humour. She has become very fond of several of them and now sees them as friends. Also, the timings of the carers visits have been adjusted over time to fit in with mums preferences, so giving her care tailored precisely to her needs.
We are very touched by your kind words and we will be sure to pass this onto the relevant team members. Thank you so much for this wonderful review of our service and it is a delight to look after your mum.
CareFour is the most professional and trustworthy care team I have used on various occasions. They are always punctual and on very rare occasions a few minutes late always an apology if this happens. If not a quick phone call to say they are on the way. On my latest contract, I ended the visits one too early. This was for the important evening visit for a hot meal and to secure the property for the night. After a quick call to the office, a carer made a special journey to help me out. Without this special help, I would have gone hungry and felt unsafe overnight. I can not praise the company enough and will certainly employ them in the future. No reasonable request is refused.
Our whole team will be delighted with your very generous and kind comments about the service we provide. It is our ethos to put the 'Care' firmly into home care and this is always delivered by our friendly care team and management who strive to go over and above. Thank you once again.
After my husband selected Carefour and I saw the quality of service provided I felt fully assured that I could go on holiday with friends knowing that my husband would be well cared for. Of the staff I have met, I found them to be friendly and knowledgeable. My husband is most happy and classes all Carefour staff as friends as opposed to business contractors.
We are delighted that you feel so happy with our overall standard of care and are very grateful for your lovely review. Thank you.
I have been very happy with this young lady. All your staff have been very kind.
Thank you so much for taking the time to give us a review. We are delighted you are so happy with the overall service we provide and we will ensure that your wonderful praise for our care team is passed on.
I have found Carefour very good in all ways and it helps me a lot. On odd occasions, I'm not sure who is coming but someone always comes. My husband has a good relationship with all carers.
We really value your feedback and wonderful review. We will ensure your comments are passed on to our care team who, as you know, work very hard to meet our very high standards of care. Thank you.
