Review from Jill T (Daughter of Client) published on 21 January 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
First Class! They looked after my mum for over the last two and a half years. We always found them very professional, they were very prompt on time but if for some reason they were delayed my mum always was told and they came as soon as possible. The carers were very dedicated and caring and made my mum very relaxed having them into her home which she was worried about to start with.

After my mum was diagnosed with a serious illness they managed the situation with her and the family so well and were with us all helping and caring to the very end. I would have no hesitation in recommending them or using them again.

Overall Experience

First Class Healthcare Ltd are a wonderful agency which we chanced upon when my dad was discharged from hospital. They cared for him during his final years, and now my mother, with great kindness and commitment. They've proved really flexible in helping with Mum's increasing needs - adapting at very short notice when things have been tough - and they have been really caring in providing all-round support throughout the period of lockdown. They keep in touch with me frequently, and have worked closely with me to get the care as good as possible. The individual carers are truly lovely, and the support staff very professional and knowledgeable. I am so grateful and full of admiration.

First Class cared for my Mum during her last weeks. They were completely brilliant with her. My husband and I are so grateful that my Mum was introduced to First Class. Simply wonderful, supportive, caring people and a very well suited company name.

Overall Experience

My sister was well looked after by First Class Healthcare. The carers were excellent in their delivery of care and the company constantly kept me updated on the care needs of my sister. The carers were reliable and always on time although there were a few occasions they were late but however, I was kept well informed if there was a delay in seeing my sister. I would highly recommend First Class Healthcare to anyone looking for care for their loved ones. Their rates are very affordable and they are very professional.

Reply from Thelma Kapesa, Manager at First Class Healthcare Ltd

Overall Experience

First Class Healthcare have been caring for my mother for 10 months and we, in the family and my mother, have all been delighted with the care and support given. They are always upbeat and kind, friendly and utterly professional. My mother has a mix of Alzheimer's and dementia and is also recently bereaved. They have shown a full understanding of the various conditions and all the carers know exactly how to ensure Mum is happy, calm and relaxed. They prepare her meals with love and great care and ensure she is tidy, clean and well-groomed. During this pandemic, they have all been fabulous, professional and helpful to all of us, not just Mum. I really cannot recommend them too highly. They are also reasonably priced excellent value for money. Thank you for the opportunity to sing their praises.

I'm a registered General Nurse and Specialist Community Public Health Practitioner (Health Visitor) with 21 years’ experience of working in the private, acute set up as well as the community, working with Clients, Carers, Children and Families. I have extensive experience of inter-agency working in the NHS and also liaising with Statutory Organisations like the Local Authorities and the Voluntary Sector. She also has a Teaching Qualification.

As a Public Health Practitioner, I passionately believe in the importance of providing excellent Primary Care Services to help build strong and healthy communities. I strongly believe that if people are kept in the comfort of their own homes for as long as possible, then they will enjoy better health and emotional well being.

I started my career in finance back in 2007, since then I went on to further my career studying AAT “ Book Keeping” and then from there onto studying my CICM “Chartered Institute Of Credit Management” I have worked in several different industries throughout my career. I joined First Class Healthcare in October 2019 as a part time carer it was the first time I had ever worked in care and quickly realised I had a love for the job and caring for the customers.

I have 5 years experience in care. I moved to Sittingbourne from London 1 year ago now. Before I moved from London I worked for a well known hospice and had amazing training and experience there. I gained my care certificate and medication management. My current role at First Class is quality officer. I have been on regular training to keep in line with all the current guidelines within care. You may see me in my management role, carrying out assessments, risk assessments and reviews. Or you may see me in my clinical role in caring on a regular shift. I love care I didnt want to fully step away from the personal care to my clients.

Marta KowalskaJob Title:Lead Care CoordinatorJoined: 2017
I started my career in domiciliary care industry with First Class Healthcare as a Care Assistant in May 2018. During this time I learnt new transferable skills, being proactive in my role as a care assistant, after a nearly year of care I then took a new role of Team Leader. I had a responsibility to direct and assist new and current care assistance offering guidance and support within new role. Shortly after that I then moved in to a Care Coordinator role with Firstclass Healthcare, having a close connection with care assistances and our service users.

I really love my job, I like being able to offer excellent care to our customers that I would want for my parents.
