From the very beginning when I met the manager at a dementia conference recently, I was most impressed by her approach to caring. As a result I put in place personal care for my dad, 93 with Alzheimer's, and Mum 91 who is very frail. We have been matched up with a caring, young Sikh woman who has a...

Thank you so much for your consideration to trust Love In Care to support your loved ones, it was a pleasure to meet them both and at that point I was able to make that assessment about the team member whose personality will be just right for your loved ones support. It is a partnership with you as well your input into the planning has helped us to ensure to not overwhelm them as they have always been so independent up to now and the approach agreed with them is working fantastically.
We have appreciated the care and patience shown to us. The way that the carers have been flexible has been so helpful. We have also appreciated the good communication that we have experienced. We are thankful for the kindness shown.

I am 57 and normally fit, healthy and active. However I suffered an accident in Spain and broke both my legs. One leg was particularly badly broken and I was very happy to wake up from my first surgery with an external fixator frame fitted, rather than losing my foot. Following nearly a month in hospital in first Spain, then Leeds, and no family support available, I have very limited mobility and Love In Care are now looking after me. I would very much like to say thank you so much for the professionalism of their carers, and the support, care and dignity they are providing for me. What a wonderful team, so helpful and dedicated. I could not manage without them.
Thank you for your support to us as well. It is a pleasure to be part of your recovery process, your personal independence motivation will help achieve that end goal soon and have you walking independently again when you will not need us then we will miss you but will be happy to see that achievement.
The lady who visited me the most was always cheerful, polite, caring and professional. I was always pleased to see her. One night's visit was missed due to an admin error, otherwise satisfactory.

Thank you for the feedback, I am happy to hear that sending one regular worker made a difference to you and that you built a rapport with her. We had a digital error that evening and the visit had become unallocated. Once we realised this we apologised to you immediately. We learnt from this issue and carried out an exercise and do this regularly now ask our customers to ring on the telephone numbers we give them should a worker be late for 15 minutes without prior agreement. It is our policy, that if we know there is a delay in a visit we inform the customers in advance. We also introduced two more mandatory measures in place to stop this from happening again in our service, one was digital log-in alerts by the system and manual confirmation by staff that they have arrived at the customer's home. Regarding the support, it was non-contributory from yourself. We wish you the best for the future.

Thank you for gelling with us as well, to make a really tight schedule of support and structure and for us to get to know your dad quickly as it is a huge change coming back home after the operation.
High standard care, our dad is very happy with the service and very kind loving staff, what more would we want but to say thank you very much for all you've done and doing. Even when it's so hard due to Dad's dementia the staff always stay calm as much as possible. Thanks.

Thank you uncle is a pleasure to support he gives us blessings that outweigh everything we could ask for.
The wonderful girls at Love in Care looked after my aunt for the last 6 months of her life but particularly the last 3 weeks.

We thank you too for giving us the honour of supporting your aunty. Thank you for all the love and appreciation you have given to all the team it makes a huge difference to us. These months have been teamwork with you and your family members. We wish you all the best for the future.
Although we only used the service for a short time due to the passing of my dad, it was always a very professional and compassionate service. All employees treated my father with dignity and respect taking time to speak with him even though he couldn’t respond.

It has been our honour to meet your dad to have had that short opportunity to support him and to meet you and your wonderful family who were all deeply involved in the love and care of your dad. We wish you all happy memories of your dad and thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us.
Love In Care was able to respond quickly when we needed help, and their carers were gentle, patient and compassionate. The whole service always felt personal and kind, from the first phone call right through to having a regular carer. I would highly recommend them.

It has been an honour to meet and support your loved one. Our focus was to keep them comfortable and in control of their wishes which was achieved collectively.
All I can say is this company has the most amazing people for my father-in-law. I have had many companies through our door. Going away on holiday means I don't have to worry, I know the team I have in are fantastic people.

Love In Care have supported our relative who has a brain injury and physical disability since July 2021. They offer a wonderful caring service to our loved one and to us as family carers. Management value our input and respect our relative’s and our views, making adjustments to the care when needed. We have used care agencies to support our relative to live as independently as possible for 25 years and we have rarely experienced the kindness, dedication and honesty that Love In Care offer. Our relative is treated as an individual and they work with us to offer care specific to his disability. Management are excellent at communicating and available to discuss things if needed. They actually do what they say they will do which makes life as a family carer less stressful. Support staff are of a high standard and eager to learn about brain injury and are adaptable. Love In Care maintain a vital strong and consistent staff team who genuinely care about our relative as if he were their own.

Thank you for your ongoing support to enable us to support your family member, your briefings and ongoing support make a huge difference to ensure the schedule of community-based activities and day-to-day living routines are always enabling and engaging to maintain the maximum level of independence and control of your family member. It's an honour to have met your family. We look forward to building on the programme of activities and improving health and wellbeing.
The carers were very caring and compassionate with my mum. She was always happy to see them. They treated her with dignity and nothing was too much trouble for them. Thank you to your staff. Also thanks to the managers for keeping in contact when my mum went into hospital.

Thank you for taking the time to review, we welcome all feedback and always learn. The support we provided you has been within our partnership work with NHS North Neighbourhood Hub the visit times we were required to make were on mornings and tea times hence the 4.30 pm visits. This service has a different remit to our mainstream services as the visits are shorter and the number of visits per day varies for each patient, a bed visit was not assessed for your needs. The duration of the visits varied depending on your support needs we carried out tasks that were additional to the remit whilst ensuring you gained your independence which was achieved over a period of three months. I ensured regular contact by carrying out some visits myself and remained accessible at all times which was an additional element to our remit. We are happy to see you are progressing and wish you good health for the future.
I was impressed by the care Mum received and any concerns or queries were dealt with promptly by the very efficient manager. The carers were kind and friendly and put Mum at ease and she got on with them really well.

Dad is a very private person and before his accident, totally independent.
The care he receives from the agency is excellent, each and everyone in the team that looks after my dad are professional helpful and very caring. He receives encouragement from them to be independent. Over the last few months, Dad has improved enormously with the assistance of the team. I hope once his care package is sorted, he can remain under the care of Love In Care.
It has been a pleasure to support your dad, he is so polite and gentle-natured, and staff have fantastic conversations with him. We are really happy at the progress he has made and the ongoing changes he is persevering with, to bring his independence back to the highest level possible. Thank you for your support as working together has facilitated the progression.

We are all honoured to have had the opportunity to meet your mum and appreciate the support you and your family gave us to work together to provide the best possible support for aunty.
All the staff are polite, caring and professional. Cultural understanding is vital when caring for people from different backgrounds. My father can communicate easily in his own language with all the staff.

I called the Manager after my grandparent's health took a rapid turn. My grandpa is the main carer to my gran, who has dementia, but his poor health meant we needed support for both and in the night. Gran can become quite agitated at night and Grandpa was not sleeping and was exhausted with anxiety.
Despite a last-minute call during a bank holiday weekend, the manager couldn't have been more helpful or compassionate. The care she and the team showed my grandparents was fantastic- and feeling as though we had someone in our corner as a family was a huge relief.
I can't recommend Love in Care highly enough. Thank you so much for all you did for us.
It has been a pleasure to meet your family and to be able to support you during those few days when our involvement has made a difference. Thank you for your feedback we wish your grandparents a happy and safe future.
The staff are friendly and talkative with family members and look after my mother well. They are punctual but could look more the part if they wore uniforms instead of their own clothing. It would be nice for them to do more with her, for example, read to her, they could also be a bit more tidy.

Thank you for your feedback, we will address your points regarding appearance as all staff are issued uniforms and ID badges with our logo. As you are aware of the nature of support required there is little time left for tasks such as reading to your mum. The room is swept at each of the visits and several times during the visits. I am always available to you to raise any points, and responsive when emergencies arise often being first on the scene and alerting the family.
