Review from Heather S (Client / Service User) published on 9 April 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
It is almost a year since I have been cared for by the wonderful team from Eaton Homecare. I have only praise for the dedication and care shown to me, especially as I have escalating health issues.
There is always a smile for me when I open the door, a calming influence and an unrushed procedure. I absolutely benefit from the 'work' and the friendly visits. I would be sad if it was unable to continue!!
I also appreciate the respect shown for my home- it is truly a wonderful set up.

The backup from the Admin side is always so helpful too.

We have been pleased with the service. All the carers are friendly and accommodating, patient and cheerful. Although it is usually different carers each day, this actually gives variety, and most have often enough to know enough to know the system. I have found the management accommodating to special needs (i.e. training or extra visit) on occasion. Everybody is very helpful. Thank you.

I wanted to get in touch and say thank you so much for the excellent care that your team have provided to mum and dad while mum was recovering from her recent illness. They have spoken very highly about all the carers and enjoyed building up a relationship with each of them. All their work was of a very high standard and their interactions were very respectful and supportive. I was able to rest assured that they were being well cared for and wouldn't hesitate to recommend you to friends.

We were very pleased with the service provided. The staff of visiting carers have been courteous, friendly, intelligent, and very adaptable (as in following the quirks of our ways of doing things!) The manager was very thorough in establishing our needs and sending just the right people to us. I am very happy to recommend this company.

Overall Experience

My dad wanted to stay at home and the professional Eaton Homecare staff together with my brother, who lived with Dad, made this possible. The Eaton carers attended to my dad's practical and medical needs three times a day; they were excellent, got to know my dad, swapped stories with him and encouraged him to be as independent as possible. The team were always friendly and communicated well with the family. We couldn't have asked for better care. Thank you, Eaton.

Overall Experience

My mother's care was under NHS rehab and whilst there were 1 or 2 carers who delivered this, the majority did not seem to know what they were there for. The programme was disorganised and the office never answered the phone or returned calls. Very poor.

Reply from Caroline Freeman, Director of Operations at Eaton Homecare

Firstly, we thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. The support your mother received was via the NHS funded service operated by Cambridge Home Care, a separate division to Eaton Homecare, however Eaton care workers will assist to cover staff absences.

Overall Experience

When my 86-year-old mum came out of hospital, Eaton Homecare provided an NHS-funded care package to ease her back into home life. Following the end of the care package, we were fortunate enough to keep Eaton carers on to provide a visit each evening to help Mum get ready for bed. Several months on, Eaton carers continue to provide excellent care and friendship to my mum and this has helped her to regain much of the confidence she had lost during her hospital stay. Thanks to all at Eaton Homecare for their ongoing help and support.

Eaton Homecare looked after my mum when she came out of hospital. They did such a great job we arranged our own care package directly and have never looked back. The staff are well trained, caring, and considerate, they go above and beyond to make sure that my mum is happy and reassured. Nothing is too much trouble from changing a torch battery to reporting that the phone line is out. They have helped when a medical crisis occurs and always keep me in the loop with any emergencies. I have met the carers and they are the nicest people, professional and fun. I heartily recommend their service. Thank you for looking after my mum, every day.

My 97-year-old mum lives on her own and started to use Eaton Homecare for a couple of days a week and has now extended to 7 days a week. She is really happy with the care provided as it allows her to continue to live at home. The carers also help her get in and out of the shower and prepare food and wash up. They also reassure me that she is okay and gives me peace of mind. Thank you for all that you do for her.

My 89-year-old mother was recently discharged from the hospital and required live-in care. I contacted a number of agencies that wasted large amounts of my time and came up with completely unsuitable candidates. Eaton Homecare saved me. They were super-fast and efficient and found me a wonderful carer.

Every member of staff was thoughtful and efficient. They really did save me. I can't express how grateful I am. I recommend them unreservedly. They are the real deal and will make your life so much easier. Thank you for everything that you have done.
