Horrific care provider. They have an unfriendly and tense attitude. They were asked to lock our front door and left it wide open when they left. They don't talk or communicate at all, not even the basics. They caused my dad pain by rough handling. No moving assisting plan, which they must have by requirement
but failed to do this at all.
Manager set up a visit then failed to attend without a word. Never follow the hours given by social work. Some half hour visits allocated they do 10 mins then rush out the door, with a stroppy attitude, and who knows what they do with the remaining time as management doesn't know where they are when they come hours later than expected. Risks medication timings but they also guessed medication doses because they had nothing to read to follow it on, nearly overdosing my dad if he hadn't said. Further unsafe practice I can't fit into this word limit. No trust in them. Careless care service.

I've not been impressed with my experience for the last 3 weeks - the last day of the contract they didn't even bother to show up! I had to babysit the carers by putting out her clothes and helped with showering etc. They never listen to anything I was saying plus they were arriving various times which
didn't help - the office wasn't that great either by fobbing me off saying they were arriving soon - I missed an important meeting at work because they were over an hour late!

The carers are all really good but office staff are a shambles. You get used to certain carers and their times and then your times get all changed and your care gets later and later and then you don't know who's coming in. When phoning the office about it you get no satisfaction or you are lied to and
told to take all your morning meds with your lunchtime ones. Totally unprofessional. My anxiety is through the roof and have been with the company for over a year. It has taken that time to get a care plan put in place. Would not recommend this company to anyone.

Reply from Gary Whyte, Manager at Adigo Care

Hi,
Thanks for your comment about the carers.
I am sorry that you felt the need to give a lackluster grading for Adigo despite having the prompt response of a review and amendment to your visit times.
In the review meeting, it was noted that your regular carers do your bidding when you request early calls and when they are off, the replacement carers go at the times scheduled on your care plan - I take it that this is the shambles you refer to.
You have always been in charge of your medication and I am now worried that you need to ask the staff what time to take your medication.
You have always had a care plan and after the review, there was the need for an update, hence the new care plan from Adigo and the council.
I will arrange another review at your earliest convenience to discuss if you need help with your medication and any other issues you may still have.
We will always make sure you get the best support and care there is to offer.
Thanking you

The Adigo Care team started coming to my mum a couple weeks ago and we can't rate them highly enough. Such a lovely and professional team. She has a real routine now with set mealtimes and enjoys the social aspect of new people coming in. My mum is benefitting from this on so many levels. Well done
to all staff of Adigocare. Many thanks.

Thanks for the review. Mum is a delight for the girls and it is an absolute pleasure to be able to help her.

Firstly I have to say that actual carers that work for this company are brilliant, I have no problem at all with the care they give my mother.
It’s the office/management side that lets it down. Total lack of communication never gets back to you about queries, care plans not up to date. Lack of concern
about being unable to access my mother, carer informed office who just did nothing, no phoning her house or any of family, just assumed she was fine for several hours until we got in touch with them. This is one of many examples.

Reply from Sams Omale, MD at Adigo Care

I would like to thank you for the review and comment on the carers especially. From records I could see that the office staff knew Mum had gone out and had asked the carer to go back afterwards. I have also checked and Mum's care plan is up to date. I spoke with you about the continuity as Mum's is off ill. During the pandemic, we have continued to provide the duty of care to Mum. I tried to call you again and I have spoken to Mum and she is happy with the service. Please let the office know when it is convenient and I will call you to be sure all is going ok.
Once again thank you.
