Liberty Private Care’s ethos is to re-define the future of home care by innovating and delivering a high-end concierge service. They achieve this objective by changing the way they structure their training and supervision of carers to provide home care services helping people with their daily needs such as personal care, help with medications, basic clinical services and, in doing so, going above and beyond in the service that is provided.

They have gained care quality commission (CQC) registration for Treatment of Diseases, Disorder or Injury (TDDI) so that their carers can complete more nursing-related tasks, thereby enabling them to provide a higher specification of care, including complex care.

Almost all of the carers training is completed by a qualified nurse to ensure that they adhere to and exceed the required standards expected from their clients and those commissioning care. All their carers have a minimum of 2 years experience, usually an NVQ in Health & Social Care, have an enhanced DBS check and are checked pre-employment by taking up 3 references.

Liberty Private Care prides itself in providing a superior personalised service in a wide range of types of care and are always happy to help.

Our dad had terminal cancer and had taken a turn for the worse. We needed to get a home care company to care for our dad. We couldn't have given our dad a better end of life in view of care. Our dad loved all of the carers. Their care is so heartwarming to see. The carers became a friendly face to our
dad each day and night. I wish I could give Liberty more than 5 stars. For anyone who wants first-class care for their loved ones, Liberty is that care company. The carers are so friendly and so professional they put our dad at ease during his care. If our dad was still alive he would have given Liberty 5 stars. Thank you to you all at Liberty.

Reply from Fiona Key, Director at Liberty Private Care Ltd

Thank you so much for your generous review. I'm so pleased to hear about the great experience your dad had to make his final days better. We are very proud of the quality of care that our carers give and were honoured to be able to contribute to the care of your father at the end.

In the six months that I have received daily care, I have been impressed by the level of care given and by each carer, their bright and cheerful attitudes, the ability to converse and their general demeanour are refreshing. I look forward to their caring each day.

Reply from Fiona Key, Director at Liberty Private Care Ltd

Thank you so much for your lovely review. We are very selective about our carers and only employ carers that have at least 2 years experience. Of course, most of them have a lot more experience as well as an NVQ in care, which we are pleased shines through in their treatment of our lovely clients.

I have been impressed with all the care staff who come to look after my husband. I am confident that he feels secure and safe while in their care which gives me peace of mind. The staff are competent to carry out small tasks as necessary and do their best to keep my husband interested and occupied.
Occasionally the care staff have noticed a small health issue which I may not have been aware of which is reassuring.

Reply from Fiona Key, Director at Liberty Private Care Ltd

Thank you so much for your lovely review. It is great that the staff are picking up health issues as we give extra training to our staff so that they do have a greater awareness of such things to be able to flag them.

I am pleased with the care they provided for my father-in-law every morning since his 6th stroke. All staff are friendly and kind to them both. Maybe they could help my mum by emptying the dishwasher or helping her put laundry on the line.

Reply from Amy McCormick, Registered Nurse Care Manager at Liberty Private Care Ltd

Thank you so much for your kind comments. I know our staff who regularly see mum and dad always offer to complete household tasks. Our staff, if times allow should always be asking if there is anything else they can help with before leaving. This is a genuine question and I encourage any client or family member to take up their offer of additional support. I will be sure to pass on this feedback to the care team, I know they will appreciate it.

I was very impressed with the Branch Manager and client support who came to discuss my father's needs.
Both were very informative, not only about the services Liberty Private Care could provide but also knowledgeable, sharing experiences to help us manage expectations of my father's condition, and
future plans for nursing home care.
I feel that Liberty are there for us as a unit, not merely to meet my father's personal care needs.
Communication with the office has been easy and emails always receive a timely reply.


Dad's carer is cheery, confident, relaxed and self-motivated. In my mother's words, "If she sees something needs doing, she does it".


Personally, I am confident knowing that dad is in capable hands and that Mum is also supported. Liberty PC are not the cheapest service but the quality and support exceed what we've found elsewhere.


To misquote the M&S advert, "This isn't just caring. This is Liberty Private Care'. That sums it up!


Reply from Amy McCormick, Registered Nurse Care Manager at Liberty Private Care Ltd

Thank you so much for your kind comments. Your family have been caring for your father so well, you were easy and available to communicate with, which assisted us enormously when providing the high standard of care we expect. We wish your dad well and hope to stay in contact with you if we can assist you with anything in the future. I will be sure to pass on this feedback to the care team; I know they will appreciate it.

The staff are all very kind and supportive to both my parents and myself. It had been so reassuring to know that my parents were being well looked after, especially as I live a long way away. Nothing was too much trouble, and I was receiving feedback on my parent's situation. The carers would encourage
my parents to do their daily exercises, even if they were met by reluctance from my parents. The carers always did the exercises with them and tried to make them fun. The staff were always fun, and my parents enjoyed their companionship.

Would highly recommend them for home care.

Finally, we have found a provide care company that shows all the qualities we expect for my elderly mum who herself was in charge of a social services home help and care back in the 1980's.
