My experience of Gold Standard Care has been extremely positive. The owners are very professional, knowledgable and hands on when needed. The carers are well trained, punctual, and always friendly. They are all very kind and will go the extra mile to help mum with whatever she needs. It is like one big family.

Overall Experience

Gold Standard Care go above and beyond to put service users first. A small but exceptional team, who I have witnessed go out of their way to meet client's specific needs, staying with my Mum until we got there after a fall, supporting my Mum at my son's wedding and genuinely knowing each client as an individual, kind and professional at all times.

Reply from Victoria Wilkinson, Manager at Gold Standard Care Ltd

Overall Experience
I have used Gold Standard care and I can honestly say they are totally amazing..I seriously can't say anything but brilliant. The carers speak to my mum with dignity. And they always have time for me too if I happen to arrive at the house whilst they are there.
I have used other care agencies and have refused to pay bills due to neglect. So I know what I'm talking about when I say the way this company is run deserves 5 stars.

Great communication and reliability.

Reply from Victoria Wilkinson, Manager at Gold Standard Care Ltd

Rachel, thank you very much for your very kind words. It is important to us to know that we are delivering a service which meets with the high standards we hope to deliver for all our clients.
