We are very happy. Radfield Home Care have supported Mum and Dad with their personal care since August 2019 and have consistently provided an excellent service. Mum and Dad get comfort and reassurance from the friendly carers who whilst delivering a professional service also take the time to interact
and help them within their own home.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The manager and her team helped to care for my mother over the last months of her life. To start with, the arrangement was for companion visits but quickly expanded to include twice-daily visits at each end of the day. Throughout, I found Radfield easy to deal with and I appreciated their professionalism
and willingness to provide whatever level of care was required. More importantly, my mother thought the service provided was really good, often saying she felt as if she had made some new friends.

(My husband is in his 100th year of living). Without this company - Radfield Home Care we would be unable to survive. The carers are a unique group of human beings. Their managers have the ability to employ only the best ones. My husband is treated with respect, caring and cheerfulness needed in coping
with Alzheimer's disease and myself with support and feeling to still being able to carry on coping. THANK YOU ALL!

Staff are always on time. They are always appropriately dressed in their Radfield uniform. They always wear appropriate protective clothing, such as gloves and aprons and dispose of them before leaving. I always feel like I've been treated with dignity and respect.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
The carers are exceptionally good at providing care for me. They are very friendly and approachable.
The only thing I have to complain about is the procedure of writing notes on their phones, it shouldn't be done in my allocated time, but I bet if things were to change, timings would be a problem.
Reply from Jackie Gillen at Radfield Home Care Wakefield & Huddersfield

Thank you for your very positive review and your feedback, it is much appreciated.


We use a digital system called PASS, the care plan and all the tasks are recorded and accessed by care staff via their smartphone. A pivotal part of providing excellent quality care is documenting (briefly) what has been completed at each care call. This is something that is done for all of our clients at all care calls and forms an important part of care delivery to ensure care is delivered safely and as per your wishes. We appreciate you taking the time to provide your feedback to us and we will, of course, take this on board. We will contact you directly to discuss this further with you to ensure any issues are addressed promptly and to your satisfaction. Kind Regards, Registered Manager.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I was delighted to welcome the Radfield Home carers into my home. They came at a time specified by me, morning and evening and were most efficient, kind, respectful and obviously a dedicated team of carers.
When accidents occurred, just a quick telephone call assured me that help was available within
a reasonable time frame. These carers were recommended to me by a friend and I have already passed the name onto other friends. I can thoroughly recommend them and highly delighted with their service.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have had brilliant care and experience with Radfield carers, administration and management. My mum's care has been well thought out, her information book has been written from her point of view. They have listened to her needs, understand her needs and take good care of her. We know she is in good
hands while we are at work. With any incidents, we are kept informed and our views of her care are taken into account. We have plenty of opportunity to change any details and have regular meetings to review Mum's care. We are all satisfied with the care, professionalism and privacy Mum is provided by the care team. Thank you.

Although well-meaning overall, we feel this company provides an adequate service which does not warrant the premium price.
Reply from Jackie Gillen at Radfield Home Care Wakefield & Huddersfield

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We are sorry that you feel our service has not met your expectations. Our team worked extremely hard to support you and your mum at all times. We acknowledge that the comments made reflect the difficult circumstances you experienced with your mum, however, we do not believe that this review is in any way a true or fair reflection of the care and support that we provided. Our team of carers all undergo rigorous recruitment checks, training and ongoing supervision and we only employ people who are friendly, competent and have a very caring nature. At Radfield Home Care Wakefield and Dewsbury we have very strong values that focus on empowering our carers so that they will go above and beyond when caring for our clients. We do not believe our care service was adequate, poor value for money, or had been led by poor management. We are proud to care and believe that caring for another person is a privilege and we take this position of trust very seriously. We delivered a high level of care to your mum consistently and regularly went above and beyond to help and assist you and your mum. We have a highly experienced management team with many years of experience which underpins Radfield Home Care’s values, and we are very proud of the work that we do. Kind Regards, the management team

Our experience with Radfield Home Care has been a pleasure. They really know their job.
Just a pity we couldn't have them permanently but couldn't get the top up finance for care.
