I would like to say that this care team are absolutely amazing. They are kind, caring, respectful, compassionate, reassuring and encouraging. I feel privileged to have them caring for me. When I have been upset or worried about anything they have always talked me through it and reassured me and pointed me in the right direction of further help available if needed. The team have always been respectful of family members, also so efficient and happy in their work.

I'm extremely pleased with the support and care that D Osteen provides for my mother and her partner. The level of care they provide cannot be faulted and we are in regular contact to discuss areas of concern or needs.

Review from P H (Client / Service User) published on 29 October 2021 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

D Osteen is a firm of carers who care for people and also care about them. Cleanliness is important, both personal cleanliness and cleanliness in one's home surroundings. Hence the one hour weekly cleans. My day starts with a wash, a joint effort of the carer and myself. There is great importance laid on medication and ensuring that the correct medication is taken. Then follows breakfast I have four egg mornings a week, given the option of boiled, poached or scrambled and fruit juice. It is a very nice breakfast, the carers are good cooks. On returning to my bedroom I find it has been tidied, the torch that had rolled under the bed has now been put back in its place by the bedside clock and the cup I left in the bedroom has already gone back in the kitchen - so I needn't have asked about it, it had already been done. This is the remark I associate with D Osteen - 'things are done before you ask for them.'

These carers are amazing and their care of my husband has helped me get through a very difficult time due to the loss of our daughter. Nothing is too much trouble and they have helped in solving problems which were not investigated by our GP. I have already recommended their service.

I am very happy with the care that I am receiving. The carers are very friendly and respectful, always talking to me as a person not an 'OAP', always ask if I require anything else before leaving. I would highly recommend these carers.
