Review from Valerie B (Wife of Client) published on 21 June 2022 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

I have been impressed with this service in terms of the reliablity of the six or more carers who look after my husband, two have been our 'dream team'. They have shown kindness, and consideration and given encouragement to my husband who was beginning to get depressed with his disability. Thank you for all your help.

Thank you so much for taking the time to do this review. We are happy to hear we have been able to help and support. Our carers enjoy visiting your husband.

Overall Experience

I have been having carers looking after me for five months now following a fall and breaking my hip. And the carers I have had during that time have been wonderful and made it possible for me to stay in my own home. I am now 92 and I look forward to seeing the carers every day.

Overall Experience

Very efficient service and professional, friendly staff. Sometimes difficult to keep track of which carer is coming and at what time. Would be nice to have the same times each day, so that I can plan my day around them accordingly. Telephone link to management, always available and helpful. Would certainly recommend Eaton Bespoke to others.

Reply from Caroline Freeman, Director of Operations at Eaton Homecare

Thank you for your lovely feedback about our service. It has been a difficult period for the team and l am sorry if the times were not consistent each day, this is something we will strive to improve.

Overall Experience

All my 4 carers are extremely good although sometimes the company organisation is not so good. However, this has improved. Phone contact from carers is now also better.

Reply from Caroline Freeman, Director of Operations at Eaton Homecare

Thank you for your feedback. I am pleased that you feel the organisation has improved. We have recently had our office team out supporting in the field, delivering care calls to try and prevent any distribution to care, l am sorry that this has had an impact on the level of service we usually provide. I will ensure that we share your lovely feedback with your regular carers.

Overall Experience

The care provided was professional, competent and essential to meeting my needs daily. I was encouraged by the carers to gain my confidence doing essential tasks, eg walking. The carers met my personal needs whilst showing me and made me feel comfortable whilst communicating very efficiently with me! An excellent 6-weeks NHS service from a well-organised care company.

Review from Anna H (Daughter of Client) published on 5 May 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Care staff have made a huge difference to my mother since receiving care from Eaton over the last year. The manager and the office team from the outset have ensured that we are kept informed of my mothers wellbeing. The care that has been provided by the care workers has helped my mother regain her confidence again. Nothing is too much trouble and the care staff are so interested in my mum when they visit. We often need to make changes to the visits and the Eaton team are always really helpful. I would highly recommend this service.

Thank you so much for your wonderful words about Eaton Homecare. It is our pleasure to care for your Mum, and like you, we are so delighted to see her so happy and well. We shall share your comments with our brilliant team, who are looking after her, so they know how much you appreciate everything they are doing.

Overall Experience

I saw lots of different carers, men and ladies, all of whom were extremely difficult. They oversaw my exercises when requested and were totally friendly and helpful. Because each one was so interesting to talk to, I looked forward to their visits. The carers routinely asked about needing to issue pills etc but this was covered by my wife.

Review from G A (Daughter of Client) published on 23 November 2020 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

We have struck lucky with the main carer who visits our 92-year-old Mum most mornings. She is mature, gentle and kind. Has common sense. We trust her. It is easy to communicate with Eaton Bespoke; they listen, respond and adapt. Recently a manager has visited us to quickly put in place procedures so Mum can, for instance, be taken out for a walk to the shop, fab! Previously had a different care company, but we were never sure who was coming - different person each time. Eaton Bespoke is far more consistent.

Generally, service by carers is very good. Communication via the office regarding lateness or even a summary of carer's name and time of visit would have been beneficial.

Review from Joan (Client / Service User) published on 12 November 2020 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
Eaton are providing a satisfactory service. A continuing problem, however, is the carers arriving too early to prepare lunch, eg. today at 11.00 am. I understand the time slot is 11.30 - 12.00 so lunch would be served nearer to 12.00.

11.00 - 11.30 is not acceptable and has been a continuing problem.

Reply from Caroline Freeman, Director of Operations at Eaton Homecare

Thank you for your review, l have looked at the system and can see that over the last 3 months 92% of lunch calls have been delivered at 11:30 in line with your requested time. I am sorry that on 7 occasions within the last 84 lunch visits the call was delivered within 15 mins earlier of the...

Review from Carole O (Daughter of Client) published on 4 November 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
From our very first contact with this company we were made to feel confident with the support being provided.
A lot of time and attention to detail was put into the care package for Mum to ensure that it covered all of her needs.
Every member of staff within the company has been very polite and easy to deal with, from our very first meeting to arrange care, right through to the daily care team.
The daily care team are always very thorough and caring towards Mum and we are always notified of any concerns they may have.
We feel that Eaton Bespoke is very willing to work with us regarding any changes required to the plan, to ensure the package is always correct for Mum.

We are very happy with the service we receive from Eaton Bespoke and have already recommended them to a friend also looking for a care provider.

Overall Experience

All the carers, male and female, have been caring, efficient, respectful, honest and patient, without exception. We're so grateful to you all for helping him recover from his fall and with our bereavement in June 2020. All the carers are assertive and safety conscious so he's been safe with carers and they've advised him on what's safe for him to do using the health professionals' knowledge and advice. They're patient with his chatter and he's cheered up by them and their encouragements. Thank you so much from both of us. Best wishes.
