Aimee from Gracious Care was very professional and also considerate when she came to meet myself and my husband who was suffering from Motor neurone disease and she made every effort to work around our needs. Then arrived the lovely Candy who was to become my husband's carer - she was wonderful and very kind and caring. Sadly my husband passed aesy only three days after Candy started but I would fully recommend Gracious Care for any carer needs - very professional and they went out of their way to help us.
Thank you so much for taking the time to review the care and suport we gave to you and your late husband, we are only sorry we could not do more for you both. We wish you well for the future.
Gracious Care provided high quality care to both my parents. My mother suffered from dementia and required a high level of personal care which was very professionally carried out whilst maintaining her dignity and comfort. In emergency circumstances the carers would stay to help and could provide...
Most importantly, all the carers and administrative showed so much compassion which made the whole experience much easier to deal with.
Thank you so much for taking the time to write about the care you received from our staff at a very difficult time for you and your family. The care staff and the office staff all loved caring for your mother and father, they have great affection in our hearts.

My father was very well looked after by a lovely group of carers - they were well organised and importantly my mother enjoyed their visits too, feeling reassured that they turned up when booked and knew what they were doing as well as enjoying their company. Being a flexible work force was also important to us as things could change quickly.
Thank you so much for these kind words. We loved caring for your Dad and in turn your Mum. It was easy working with you as a family to give the support needed at all times.

Very happy with the service we are receiving from Gracious Care. Mum has dementia and the befriending visits have helped ease the burden on us and also benefitted mum on having someone new to chat to. The initial visit from management took place in mums home and she was included in discussions around her needs. They matched her perfectly to their team member and mum looks forward to her visits.
Thank you Tracey for you review of the care and support we provide. Your Mum is a delight.
Communication between us is very good.
Peace of mind knowing mum is being well cared for on a daily basis when we cannot be around.
Very flexible with last minute change.

My mother's desire to stay in her own home led us to find a care company who would look after her. Gracious Care have been amazing. They have looked after my mother for over a year with kindness, patience and care. Her dementia has not made this an easy journey, but all efforts are made to ensure she is cared for in somewhat difficult circumstances. I can't praise the staff highly enough for all their care and dedication to Mum's care.
Thank you so much for your review. I will pass on your comments to the care team.

I have been very happy with the care that was provided to my father over the last year. My father was well looked after for all his needs mentally and physically. The carers were a vital link between my father and myself. Good communication made me feel that my dad was getting the best care possible and provided him with virtual care at home. He loved seeing them and would chat away with his carers. The home was always spotless thanks to a good team that was put in place to care for my father. I never had any worries.
Thank you, our staff always try to do the best for our customers.
I am very happy with the care company that looks after my wife. Their personnel are all well-trained and nothing is too much trouble for them. We regard them as friends.

We enjoy working with such a lovely family.
The carers we have are excellent, arrive on time and stay for the specified time and don't rush.

Care is generally good, except that provided by one member of staff who we understand is no longer employed by the care company. The cost of care is not cheap and following their latest increase in price we are considering cutting the number of hours arranged.

We are sorry that one of your carers no longer works for the company as she moved on but I believe that you have had the same carer for over 6 months unless she is off sick. In regards to the increase in charges this was so we were able to give our care staff a significant pay rise to help them with the cost of living. The company have passed on the full increase to our staff.
I would highly recommend Gracious Care. The carers are excellent, taking great care of my mum and working closely with the family in order to provide the best possible care plan. The management team are friendly, professional and very supportive.

Thank you for your very kind comments. The whole staff team loved caring for your Mum and miss her greatly. It was a pleasure working with you and your wife.
The care my mother receives from Gracious Care is really good and the advice they give is useful. My mother knows all her carers by name and we always have the same group for a period of time, which I think gives my mother some stability.

I contacted Gracious Care after my mum broke her hip and needed help recovering at home. The owner and the team have been terrific - professional and kind. Night care was arranged within hours and they continue to provide excellent daily care for both my parents. I recommend them highly.

Postoperative care for two weeks following spinal surgery for my 85-year-old mother. The staff assessed care needs and gave invaluable information that helped me have other services put in place as well as care the company could provide. The carers were fantastic and not only helped mum, but they also gave me breathing space. They are professional and kind, and have helped speed mums recovery. I would recommend Gracious Care without hesitation - a caring company with a fantastic leadership.
It was an absolute delight to provide care to such a lovely lady. We hope that she continues to recover.

My elderly father really enjoys his regular visits, and they provide him with stimulation, company and humour. The care teams ensure he receives his important medication on time, as well as overseeing his ever-changing needs!
It's such a comfort to have a local company who are so attentive and so reliable too. We can only compliment you on your excellent staff, work ethic and performance.
Thank you so much; you have made a huge difference in both our lives.
Thank you, Sarah. Your Dad is a pleasure to care for, and you are so supportive.

Gracious Care provide an absolutely wonderful service. From the minute I contacted them, they lightened the load of care. Gracious Care helped with bringing my mum home from hospital, liaising with the nursing staff, organising the equipment she needed, form filling etc. Nothing was too much trouble. The carers were professional, genuinely kind, respectful and helpful. They frequently stayed longer than the time allotted and went above and beyond the call of duty. My only regret is that I didn't find them sooner and sadly, it was end-of-life care. In this respect, they couldn't have been kinder to my mum and the rest of the family. I thoroughly recommend this company.
Thank you. It was a pleasure to care for your Mum and to be able to support you and your family.

Mikilia is so much more than a manager. Gracious Care is so pleased to have her with us as she brings wide-ranging business experience, which she is able to apply with great effect. This, in turn, helps everything run smoothly.

Aimee brings to the company enthusiasm, an empathy for our customers and a commitment to high-quality care. Drawing on her effervescent personality, you can imagine, Induction training, Medication Training & Competency, and Living Well with Dementia (to name but a few of the courses Aimee delivers) are interesting and engaging.

Working in care is so inspirational as it brings out some of the most meaningful aspects of life.
Care work is rooted in empathy, trust, and compassion. Care is more than a profession—it's a commitment to upholding dignity, fostering trust, and making meaningful, lasting contributions to the lives of others. Through every challenge, we create opportunities to inspire confidence and deliver impactful, compassionate support.
Care work is purpose-driven driven which is deeply rewarding. It challenges you to be patient, adaptable and emotionally intelligent. The resilience you witness from those you care for can be so inspiring. It offers perspective and motivation to face your own challenges with greater strength. I am honoured to be a part of the journey Gracious Care brings to the lives of those we support, and look forward to leaving a lasting effect to those we may provide care for in the future.

I have worked in end-of-life care and enjoy passing my knowledge on to new staff. I dedicate myself to improving the quality of life for those I look after, giving them a sense of comfort, security and trust.
I am proud to be a member of such a fantastic group of carers and take pride in representing Gracious Care to its highest standards.
