My mother received care and support from Steady Care Services ever since she fractured her hip and lost her mobility. She received invaluable care from them for a period of 18 months until her recent death. During this time she was never once let down by the service they provided. They never missed
a visit and if they were running late they always contacted her and myself to let us know. When she became completely bedbound they looked after her every need with a smile on their face and often went the extra mile if they thought it necessary. Nothing was ever too much trouble for them. They made my mother as comfortable and as happy as she could be and she valued them as her friends. Whenever I visited they were interested in hearing about our family and we shared some stories! I cannot rate them highly enough and am so grateful for their services - without them my mother would not have been able to stay in her own home, which she loved.

Thank you very much for your kind words, Caroline. We are delighted to receive such positive feedback and it's been our absolute pleasure to support your late mother over the past months. We wish you and your family all the very best for the future.

I am very happy with the care given to my disabled mother over the last few years. Wherever possible mum has the same carers visit. She has difficulty communicating so it is important that they are aware of her needs and I feel confident that she is being well cared for with compassion and understanding.
The office is in regular contact with me and will also contact the GP or district nurse when necessary. On occasions when mum has pressed her personal alarm and a family member has been unable to attend then Steady Care have stepped up and gone round promptly to check on her. Overall I am very pleased and would recommend.

Overall very happy with carers, sometimes lack of communication between them. However mum seems happy sometimes having a little moan about them but not always understanding they are there to help. She gets very confused with their names.

My son has used Steady Care services for 4 years and he has been extremely pleased with all of the staff that have cared for him.
The staff are all friendly professional listen to his requests and most of all chat to him on many subjects. Over the years his condition has deteriorated and they have
been able to help and support him with all his needs.
They have also helped with live in carers when his parents take a holiday break. I am the person who communicates with the office staff and I have always found all staff helpful and understanding. well done to everyone.

I was so pleased with the care that my brother received from your company during his final weeks.
My brother had both male and female staff who looked after him and I felt that they all gave him respect.
I had complete trust in them, and I knew that he would be well cared for if I wasn't there.

Overall, I am very satisfied with the care I receive from Steady Care. My main carers are excellent and I am handled with extreme care and treated with respect at all times. On occasions when the main carers are not available, other carers have not been quite as thorough. On infrequent occasions, carers
have been more than half an hour late, and I would appreciate a call to advise me of the situation.

Honestly can't thank Steady Care Services enough for all their help and support with our mother who usually doesn't accept outside help well but these lovely carers are so kind and chat with her and always do their best for her. Thank you, you're absolute Angels for us.

Overall I find the care very good. Times can sometimes be a bit uncertain but mostly alright. Also sometimes I have three different carers on three days running. I prefer if I get the same carer on consecutive days.

My mum's care team has been amazing - kind, compassionate, trustworthy, and helpful. Knowing that they are there has made all the difference. In particular, the carer has been a star. In addition, the office team has checked in regularly to ensure that the care package remains appropriate and that everything
is on track.

I cannot give an honest opinion as I have only recently been aware of my brother's situation. I understand the carers have done their best even when my brother is less than cooperative. I am sure they make every effort to serve him as best they can and to try to ensure his safety and comfort. I am grateful
to the management for keeping me informed.

The quality of care provided was very poor, the carer was very rude and unhelpful, refusing to listen to the patient and to help them with toileting or anything other than heating up a microwave meal. The carer was very dismissive of the patient, talking over them, and ignoring any feedback from them.
The patient was left to feel very upset because of this rude behaviour and the carer blamed the patient for being "difficult".

Our carers provided the best personalised care possible. I was not sure what to expect when the care package was first put in place, but they exceeded my expectations. Our carer team showed mum courtesy, respect and true friendship. We will always be eternally grateful.

I found the team at Steady Care to be kind and thoughtful of the needs of my elderly mother. Not living close by, I felt reassured that she was receiving the best care which put my mind at rest. The communication between Steady Care and myself was excellent, and nothing was too much trouble. I would
not hesitate to recommend Steady Care Services.

We have been using Steady Care for a couple of years now for my dad's nursing care as he has dementia and issues with his mobility. He has double-handed care 4x daily and is always treated with dignity, respect, care and good humour. The carers also now order and administer his medication as well as
consistently feeding him breakfast, lunch and shakes. They will also contact the district nurses or doctors surgery if they have any concerns. The admin team are fantastic at keeping me in the loop with what is going on and are very good at communicating regards any additional requests. I am extremely grateful for this and would have no hesitation in recommending this agency.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.469)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.469) out of 10 for Steady Care Services Ltd is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 25 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Home Care Provider is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.469 for Steady Care Services Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (87 Excellents x 5) + (46 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) + (5 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 143 Ratings = 4.469

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows: 3 points for the first Positive Review, 2 points in total for each of the next 9 Positive Reviews (1st = 3, 2nd = 0.5, 3rd = 0.5, 4th = 0.25, 5th = 0.25, 6th = 0.1, 7th = 0.1, 8th = 0.1, 9th = 0.1, 10th = 0.1)

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Steady Care Services Ltd is based on 23 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 5

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Home Care Provider does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
