After a difficult experience with previous carers, this has been very reassuring for us as a family. Their calm and supportive approach has made a real difference, and it's comforting to know she is in good hands. Thank you for your continued support.
We're really pleased to hear that you've been happy with the care and support provided, especially given your mum's anxiety and your previous experiences. It's important to us that our team approaches every situation with patience, kindness, and understanding, so...
One of the wonderful carers that come to support my father from the York branch noticed that dad was not himself that day and was still in bed. Thankfully, this was enough to make her think something was off amd as she tried to get him up and moving that all was not well. To cut a very long story short, she called an ambulance and dad was taken straight into hospital. I am so appreciative that she came that day and didn't just think dad was having an off day or a lie in and got him the help he needed. I dread to think what would have happened had she not come.
We are very grateful to hear how much you value the care and attentiveness shown by our York team. Our carers take great pride in getting to know the people they support, noticing when something does not seem quite right, and acting with care,...
After my micro provider was priced out by the local council I experienced a company that gave sub optimal care and to find the great care company was a relief.
They are approachable and kind , thank you all of you in your support and care of mum.
Thank you so much for your kind words. We're truly glad we could support you and your mum during a challenging time. Your appreciation means a lot to our whole team, and we're so pleased our care made a positive difference.Warm wishes,The Great Care Company Team
I am in awe at the quality of the care my wife and I have received. Yes, they were caring for me too.
I feel that the secret lies in the company name. The Great Care Company. They certainly showed great care to us.
Thank you all very much is all I can say to them.
Thank you for your kind words. It was our pleasure to support your wife to remain at home. We pride ourselves with our staff retention as this enables us to offer consistency and continuity which was clearly very important to you. We are very thankful for you taking the time to leave such a wonderful review. We wish you all the best.
Our whole family are so grateful to The Great Care Company. The service is very good, the girls are fantastic and we never have any issues. It can be really hard to see your loved ones need care and it brings us peace of mind knowing that we can rely on The Great Care Company. We would have no hesitation in recommending them.
We understand that both stress and pressure can be felt by our service users and their families when support is required, but we aim to make it a smooth transition and I am pleased you know that you can rely on our team.
The carers are lovely and really helpful. They all seem really happy and brighten up the day with their visits. Our family would be lost without them. It's the reassurance that you get from knowing that you can rely on them to attend and provide a really good quality care. We have been so impressed and I know my father-in-law is really pleased with the care that is provided. We are always pleased to recommend The Great Care Company.
Thank you for your kind words towards our team. We are delighted to receive such wonderful feedback and thank you for taking the time to leave such a nice review. We thank you for your continued service.
Our experience with the Great Care Company has been exemplary. The people who visit are lovely and nothing is ever too much for them to do. My father-in-law has received excellent care from each carer, saying quite often that they are kind, caring and professional. We are delighted by the service and we would recommend them to anyone. Thank you.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review - we really appreciate your feedback. We will pass your comments on to our team, who we are sure will be delighted that you are happy with our service. Thank you again.
Very pleased with the service. Since my elderly mum started to get visits, it has not only helped with the challenges of daily life but also with her general well-being. Not only do they help with daily chores, but they are always reliable, friendly and take time to chat. The friendly chats are as helpful as the more practical help.
Thank you for taking the time to leave your review. It is our pleasure to support your mum and we look forward to continuing to do so.
My brother and I would like to thank and recommend The Great Care Company in York. We never expected our mother to willingly accept the level of care required, but she did, enabling her to live out her life where she wanted to be - at home. The girls were wonderful, kind, caring and professional. They always treated her with dignity and allowed the time to share a genuine interest in her life. Thank you again.
Thank you for your kind words. It was our pleasure to support your mum to remain in her own home. We really appreciate the feedback and will ensure we pass this on to the team who supported her.
Very happy with the service that my sister has received. The carers that visit are the same people each time which is really pleasing because consistency is really important to us. The service is vital to helping my sister remain independent and we are amazed by the empathy and attention that the carers give. They are all wonderful people and we would be lost without them. Thank you!
Thank you for taking the time to leave your fantastic feedback for our team Diane. We're so pleased you put your trust in us to support your sister.
A fall and broken wrist led to us looking for a regular care service for our mother, after researching and contacting several providers we met with the Great Care Company. All contact and meetings were conducted in an easy to deal with and professional manner. Mum is not good with change so we were anxious about starting home care for her as she can be stubborn and challenging, at times. We discussed this with the care company and they don’t push Mum to do things she doesn’t want to do, but they have achieved much more with her than any of us, as her children could have. The house is in a much cleaner condition, as is Mum! Now she is in the routine of having ‘visitors’ come and help her, it’s just become normal. It has also relieved some pressure on the family, juggling full-time jobs and childcare and living in another part of the country as we know someone is checking on her twice a day.
Thank you for your lovely comments Liz, we're so pleased to be able to give you and your family the peace of mind that your mother is being well looked after and relieve the pressures you used to feel. We're very proud of the support we are able to offer and are so pleased when we receive such great feedback as a testament to this. Thanks once again.
I have been very pleased with the quality of care provided for my parents over a difficult period. The two carers were competent, reliable and helpful. I am relieved that my father, in particular, felt comfortable with the care provided and that the carers quickly gained his trust. We would not hesitate to use this company for further care. It was particularly good that their was just a team of two, with only very occasional substitution.
Thank you for your lovely feedback Carrie. We're so pleased your parents were able to make the most of their support by building strong relationships with their consistent carers during their service. We know the whole team appreciate the positive feedback and we're grateful as ever for your words.
The support our family received from the Great Care Company was excellent and although they only supported my step father for a short time, it was truly appreciated. They are very kind, supportive, committed, caring and most importantly for us - trustworthy. We would recommend anyone to use them to support their loved ones.
Thank you for trusting us to provide support for your stepfather. Our team were delighted to assist and appreciate your encouraging words. Thank you once again.
I find the care team to be excellent, with no complaints. In particular. one lady needs a special mention; she is great with Dad and very caring. However, the only frustration I have is regarding payment - I just don't understand why you can't operate with a direct debit facility.
We appreciate the time you have taken to leave your kind words for our team. We thank you for putting your trust in us to support your Dad. As a smaller company, the reason Direct Debit has not yet been an option is due to the cost incurred by this. We have chosen to put our investment into our...
We find it really hard to visit my mother and we are really pleased that she has the support of all the staff at The Great Care Company in York. She loves the girls that come to see her and always talks about how she enjoys the meals they cook for her. We've noticed such a difference in her, she has become so much happier since the carers have been visiting. Can't thank the team enough.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review sharing your experience. We are truly grateful. We are also really pleased that your experiences with The Great Care Company are very positive - this makes our day!
The Great Care Company have assisted me in looking after my mum in our home, over the past year. They have always treated my mum with respect and dignity and tried to lift her spirits and make her smile. Having had several care companies over the years, this company are by far and away, the best. Good management and well trained, cheerful staff. A big thank you to all of them.
Thank you for your review, Pam. We were deeply saddened to hear of your loss. We are grateful to you for placing your trust in us to deliver support to your Mother. Thank you again for taking the time to share your experiences by leaving this review.
I am delighted by every aspect of care provided by The Great Care Company. I feel very secure in my home, which is well cared for and I enjoy all the varieties of meals prepared and the pleasant, good company.
Thank you for your review, Pamela. We are really pleased you feel this way about our service and our team. We are grateful to you for placing your trust in us. Thank you again for taking the time to share your experiences by leaving this review.
I would recommend the Great Care Company to everyone. They have encouraged my husband to speak, how to move safely and used both professionalism and kindness. After every visit, they ask if there is anything else I want doing. The company are supportive, on the end of a phone and adaptable to our needs. The staff are aware of the complex medical needs and are updating things constantly.
Thank you, Lesley, for your lovely review. We are really pleased that you have found our service to be so positive. We are grateful and proud to be supporting your husband. We are here for you, always. We will be sure to share your kind words with our team. Thank you again.
Your care company was recommended to me when my father needed care - 4 times a day. He is very happy with his carers and very appreciative of all they do for him. It is such a weight off my shoulders and my brother's to know that he is being well-looked after and cared for and that he is happy and cheerful.
Thank you for your review Joanna. We are really pleased that your father is very happy with our team. We are really pleased that we can support him at home, and we are pleased that it is a weight lifted of your family's shoulders too.
We have had an excellent experience with The Great Care Company. All the carers and managers are polite, caring and kind. It got to a stage where my Aunt really needed some support at home and we heard good things about this company. Everyone there goes above expectations and really does care. They are really professional and have helped our family immensely. We really appreciate it.
Thank you for sharing your experiences Ian. We are really pleased that you feel happy with our service and we are really proud to support your Aunt. We really belief in doing everything we can to support people to remain independent at home, so we are pleased that we are achieving this for your Aunt.
