My hearing and mobility are somewhat impaired but the carers make allowances. The times which they come are irregular and sometimes they find it hard to say when they will be coming the next day. They are always polite. On the whole, I am satisfied with the service. I find it a little expensive and dealing with Hertfordshire Councty Council on the phone is very frustrating.
Thank you for this review, I am pleased that you are satisfied with our service. Our carers will always be able to let you know what time the next visit is scheduled for so please do ask them. We can of course send a rota on a weekly basis if that makes planning easier.
Very satisfied with care. Carers are punctual and pleasant, like friends. I could not stay in my home without them - I am very grateful.
Thank you for this review, I am pleased that you continue to be satisfied with your care with the changes that you have been through recently.
1st Homecare are outstanding as a service provider. The whole service from management to individual carers is excellent. Thank you!
Thank you for this review, I know how much you value the care our carers provide to Mum and thank you for your continued support and compliments to our carers.
1st Homecare? 1st class! Very happy with the service.
Many thanks for this review; lots of changes for you at the moment, and I am pleased we have been able to support you both so well.
I have only been using care for one month and am very pleased with the help.
Thank you for your review. I am pleased we have been able to help you. I will let your carers know that you have given them 5/5 for the care they give you, it is very much appreciated.
I am very pleased and happy with the help I have received from 1st Homecare. They are always ready to help and greet you with a smile and kind words, they always ask if you need anything else. If I do or did need anything else, I would not be afraid to say so, they are so easy to talk to. I feel so safe knowing I have them at my side, you could not ask for more.
Thank you for your review. We are delighted you are happy with our services and that you are so positive about our carers. I am especially pleased to hear that you feel safe knowing you have them at your side.
The ladies are all lovely, efficient and treat my husband with dignity and respect.
Thank you for your review, your comments are appreciated and I will pass these on to our staff.
We have been using 1st Homecare for several years, our carers have been wonderful and consistent. Our changing needs have been well supported with help from one member of staff with occupational health. We have full confidence and trust in the care we receive.
Thank you very much for such a positive review of our service. I will pass your kind comments on to all our team.
This has proved very good in all ways and we have felt at ease from the start. The staff have been helpful to get him back on his feet again. Still quite a bit to go but we feel sure it will all come right. All kind and thoughtful people.
Many thanks for your review, I am pleased that we have been able to provide a good service to support you and your husband.
In the short time that I was able to use your services, I found the experience extremely helpful and efficient. The staff were understanding of my needs, compassionate and always friendly and helpful. I would not hesitate to recommend 1st Homecare and it is only my personal circumstances changing, that means I can't continue with them.
To date, the service provided has been very, very good and I have no complaints. All of the staff are very polite and competent.
Thank you so much for taking the time to review the service we give you. I am delighted to see you are happy with it and look forward to continuing supporting you in the future.
My husband's carers are great. This has been a recent experience for us and we were not sure what to expect but my husband is happy with his personal care and chatting to others. His dignity is respected and all his needs are catered for. This makes me happy and I also benefit from help given to me with light housework etc.
Thank you for your very positive response. I am delighted you are happy with our services. Please don't hesitate to let us know if we can help in any other way.
Everyone is friendly and efficient. Cannot thank them enough.
Many thanks for your very positive review - we are delighted your experience with 1st Homecare has been a good one.
Punctual, cheery, helpful and patient. I looked forward to my daily visit.
Many thanks for your very positive review. I am so pleased that we could help you for the time you needed support but glad that you have recovered from your op and no longer need us.
Very friendly and helpful.
Thank you so much for taking the time to submit a review for our organisation. I am delighted that you are happy with our service. Please don't hesitate to contact us, if we can help in any other way.
Grateful for support to get in and out of the bath and get dressed.
It's very comforting to have this support.
Many thanks for your positive response - we are so glad we can support you in your daily life.
I have had help from 1st Homecare for some time. My husband had care from them, a first like me, he was very grateful and happy to have such kind staff. He and I were very pleased as I am now to have their assistance. My husband died, 10 years ago, but the kindness is still as good as it was then.
Thank you for taking the time to give us such a lovely review. Our carers are delighted that we have been able to support both you and your husband and I know they enjoy reminiscing about him with you when they visit.
Very good care firstly for my wife over two and a half years, then for myself over four years and counting.
Many thanks for taking the time to provide us with such a positive review.
After having a bilateral hip replacement, a friend recommended. I had some care for a few weeks to aid my recovery... finding 1st Homecare online, my daughter called them and arranged a prompt visit the day after I came home. A package was set up immediately for my requirements. I used their service for three weeks. The carer always arrived on time being kind, caring - helping me to shower and dress in the morning. I highly recommend them!
Many thanks for your very positive review. We are delighted that you have recovered so well that you no longer need our support!
I receive excellent service from my individual carers and also on any occasion I have needed the office.
Thank you for your very positive review, which I will pass on to all the staff involved with your care.
