Westmorland Homecare (Kendal)

I would highly recommend this service to anyone searching for home care for a loved one.

Without the help of Westmoreland Homecare, I would not be able to keep my wife at home. The carers visit three times a day and provide the assistance I cannot manage by myself. They also provide care when I need longer periods of respite. The quality of care is brilliant for reliability, punctuality and professionalism- it cannot be beaten. All the dedicated carers are lovely people who provide superb support to myself as well as my wife.

I have received support from Westmorland Care for nearly 5 years. I can highly recommend this outstanding service of care that I receive from my health care assistants and office team. With continuous carers, I have been able to build up trusting relationships with my HCAs and Westmorland Home Care support me to be independent and enables me to achieve everyday tasks where I feel confident and safe to do so with their support. They have helped me get back into my hobbies and enabled me to get out and socialise and make new friendships I now attend some social groups and attend swimming sessions at my local hydrotherapy pool. Westmorland Homecare has had a huge positive impact on my and my family's life and wouldn’t be without them.

I had been really ill. It was suggested that Westmoreland Homecare be contacted to come to my home and help me. Well, it was one the best decisions I have ever made. My health which, let's face it, is one of the most important things in my life, improved. My life turned around and my quality of life returned. Three good things. What more can I say? Thank you Westmorelands Home Care.

As a family, we are delighted with the standard of care and support Dad receives from Westmorland Homecare. The care staff on his team are attentive and treat him with the utmost care and professionalism. His needs which are both physical and emotional are attended to diligently, with carers going above and beyond on many occasions. They have provided a crucial link with the medical profession, recognising instantly when district nurses are needed. Staff recognise that Dad has a wonderful sense of humour and the daily banter is at times very funny. Any queries we had, the management has been helpful and supportive, what is really lovely is that carers make time to check Mum is okay after each visit, and provide help for her and company that is valued. Having Westmorland Homecare looking after Dad's daily needs has been invaluable to our family. He is being well cared for by your carers allowing the time we have with him to be more relaxed, quality, social experience.

I would recommend them to anyone who needs help or care in their own home.

The decisions will be made not by the supervisor, admin or carers. We have always been pleased with the service. This is negative but extremely stressful and upsetting.

I just wanted to express my gratitude and thanks for the whole team at Westmorland Homecare for the gracious and diligent way in which they cared for my grandma in the last few months of her life. She had always been fiercely independent, but after contracting Covid last year, took a sudden downhill turn and needed help in all aspects of her care. This frustrated her immensely, but your team of wonderful carers never made her feel like a hindrance. On the few times I was with her when they visited, I witnessed nothing but a polite and friendly attitude. My grandma felt so looked after and looked forward to her visits. Sadly, my grandma passed away last month, but she always spoke highly of your fabulous team, and I'll never be able to thank you enough for making the last few months of her life so comfortable. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Westmorland Homecare to anyone who is looking for a reliable and caring agency to care for their relatives.

My mother was cared for by Westmorland Homecare for the last 18 months of her life - dying aged 94 and a half. She had dementia and many other problems. During the time she was cared for, Westmorland Homecare could not have cared better for her. The carers always went the extra mile - stayed longer if necessary - and genuinely would do anything - especially as I live 75 miles away. The manager and other office staff too, were exceptional, always keeping me in touch with any matter, and regularly reviewing the situation and the care Mum received. I could not and cannot rate them highly enough - no one could have done more for Mum or loved her more.

The owner and his team have been a godsend to our family. Mum has been unwell for a few months and recently diagnosed with dementia as well. We have the same regular ladies coming to visit mum and they are all wonderful. I can't praise them enough but special thanks to the senior carer who looks after the other carers in the team as well as mum. I don't know where they find their staff but they are all wonderful people. 5 stars plus plus plus and a big thank you from us all. I would recommend Westmorland Homecare if you are looking for home care in Grange-over-Sands. I also have a friend who gets their Kendal home care from them and she also highly recommends them.

We asked Westmorland Homecare to provide home care to my mother in Kendal approximately 6 months ago. They help Mum with medication and meal preparation. I have to say every member of staff we have met has been wonderful. It's the same regular team of carers and everyone in the office has been so lovely and helpful too. We live away so it's a huge reassurance. I have always found them to be highly professional and kind. I would highly recommend them.

Westmorland Homecare have been wonderful to me and my husband. They help us with anything we ask them and all of the Kendal homecare team have been brilliant. The company is run by two doctors which is very reassuring to us. I would, and have, recommended them.

I would certainly call on Westmorland Homecare again if I needed home help or personal care in the future.

I am leaving (sadly) this house on Monday, to go to a care home as my arthritis gets worse with ages and lots of use, hip joints - I need more help and care.

From the outset, we found everyone friendly, approachable and caring. The care my dad had was excellent. The ladies cared for my dad with respect and treated him with care. It was peace of mind to know my dad has this care in place. We could always speak/email with any concerns and likewise I was always updated if anything was concerning them. The back up in my dad's last few months was a godsend. Thank goodness we found such lovely people to care for our dad and grandad.

The staff have been so wonderful with mum. She likes them more than me! The company seems well organised and well run. I have mainly dealt with the manager but all the staff I have spoken to have been great. I know one of our carers used to be a nurse who retired from the NHS and the other has been working in the industry for 30 years so I feel confident in them. I would highly recommend the company.

Westmorland Homecare have been fantastic. The carers are very kind and do anything I ask. They have become great friends.

My father was recently discharged from hospital after a long, painful, and persistent illness. he struggled at home on his own after discharge. Westmorland Homecare came to his/our rescue. They were very helpful and immediately came to our aid. They have provided an excellent service, providing first-class care. My Dad feels confident at home and happy. This is all thanks to Westmorland and their first-class care. I don't know what we could have done without them.

All the staff have been excellent. Wonderful carers and wonderful managers in the office. I would highly recommend Westmorland Homecare.

The carers were all very professional, and nothing was too much trouble. I would highly recommend this care provider.
