Over all time Caremark Dover has 18 reviews.
We are both so impressed with all of the carers. Their timekeeping is spot on. They are all so pleasant, friendly and polite and display a very high level of efficiency, patience and understanding with my husband's various medical needs.
Without exception, my husband likes them all and really appreciates their visits. It is wonderful to have this level of care in your own home.
We highly recommend Caremark Dover.
Thank you for taking the time to leave this review. We are very pleased that we have been able to provide you and your husband with the help that you need.
We have been using Caremark since July this year for my father . He had been in hospital and as a family we were struggling with looking after him in his own home along with our own jobs etc. The carers from Caremark have been so good with him and more importantly he likes them all . The staff I have met or spoken to have been friendly and helpful and its taken a load of my mind knowing that he is being checked on regularly throughout the day and having his meals and medication when he should have . They are such a good team and the staff in the office are always helpful when you call them. I cant recommend this team enough .
Thank you for taking the time to place a review of our service. We are very pleased that we have been able to help your father.
My father has been receiving support from Caremark Dover for the last four years. The carer's have always encouraged my father to remain as independent as possible which enabled him to remain in his own home much longer than expected. Recently following a deterioration in his health, the level of care needed for him increased significantly. The carer's are always friendly, treating him with dignity and supporting him to understand his changing needs.
The office staff have always been incredibly supportive and always willing to help. They recently managed to put in place a package of care at short notice to enable my father's discharge from hospital.
We are very grateful for all of the support received - thank you!
Thankyou for taking the time to leave us such a lovely review. It was a pleasure to care for both Mum and Dad and we hope Dad settles in his new home.
The staff at Caremark have done an excellent job supporting my very elderly father to stay in his own home. They are always friendly, responsive and accommodating and give great advice which puts the needs of the client first. Thank you.
Thankyou for taking the time to review our service and the lovely feedback given.Xana
Very pleased with service provided. Carers are personable, friendly and easy to get along with. I am a little concerned that the attendance time that was 9am three weeks ago has now moved to an average of 9.20am. This means that when the carer is delayed and I am not seen until after 9.30 it has a knock on effect and any other activities that we have planned for that morning are affected.
We used the Cleaning Services provided by Caremark today (2/5/2024) for the first time and are extremely happy with the results and would certainly recommend this service to others. The service is a bonus for me and helps to free up my time, thank you.
Thankyou for leaving this review. We are very happy that the service has helped you.
Very flexible company. All of staff have been very accommodating and friendly. Nothing is too much trouble. Very punctual and efficient. Would definitely recommend this company to anybody looking for help around the home.
Thank you for taking the time to review our services. We are thrilled to hear you have had a positive experience with us.
My mother had a stroke back in May this year, the support she’s had from home care has been amazing and caring. The staff are really good at their job and would recommend them 100 percent, the team have looked after my mum since May and it is still ongoing. We wouldn’t know what to do without their care and support, my mum feels safe and cared for by the team.
Thank you for taking the time to review Caremark Dover, I will pass the praise onto the carers who care for your mum.
The care visits have adapted around the needs of Dad and Mum over the last two years. The team is always helpful, friendly and supportive. When things have changed, such as now with Dad needing frailty care,they have adjusted the care to support them both at short notice.
Living in New Zealand and caring for elderly parents isn't easy. With the Caremark Dover team they have gone out of their way to be helpful and so good at letting us know if there is a concern.
Since the frailty assessment two weeks ago, they've overnight stepped up to three visits with two carers a day to support Dad, who can't walk at the moment.
Came from a meeting today, mapping out scenario's and how we work together for the best outcomes - so helpful in giving peace of mind. You know when the carers are good, as they have little jokes with Dad and there are often giggles and laughs, even when it's been a tough day for him.
Thanks for taking the time to leave a review for us. I am glad our carers brighten up Dad's day.
Following my wife's 34 week stay in hospital after breaking her ankle, her initial homecare was provided on behalf of the NHS. Subsequently, her care was passed to Caremark (Dover) and I have been immensely impressed by the service they offer. Particularly in respect of her current inability to mobilise and requiring hoist transfer to her chair. As a former senior nurse manager, I tend to expect high standards, and we have received them. More recently, I was required to be away for a week, leaving my wife at home with just the carers coming in, leaving me with a great deal of anxiety. Caremark really stepped up in their planning and response that left my wife really at ease with the situation and everything dealt with in a caring and professional manner.
Thank you for your kind words. We are very pleased you are happy with the service we provide.
My family and I have nothing but praise for the whole team at Caremark (Dover). From our very first request for them to come and assess my elderly father (on the same day I had been let down by another agency), they were efficient, knowledgeable and personable. Fortunately for us, Caremark was able to start caring for my father immediately, and we had confidence in their ability and reliability. Each carer was kind, diligent and treated my father with dignity. He felt comfortable and happy with the care he received. There was often much humour, even in trying circumstances, and we will always be grateful for the steadfast and sympathetic way my father was treated. Thank you again to the team at Caremark (Dover).
Thank you for your review. It was a pleasure to care for your dad. I will pass your kind words on to the carers, who all do a fantastic job.
I recommend reviewing all their website resources, it's a treasure of useful info.
The carers were highly trained and guided us through Dad's 'journey'. Family conversations were always honest and collaborative. Caremark invests in their team, providing direct feedback and taking immediate action whenever needed. The app with carer notes after each visit was also great and it was always a comfort to talk to Dad, hear his 'report on the day' and knowing the care notes on the app said the same thing.
My Father kept saying how much of a difference his carers made, their kindness, experience, support and also humour that brightened his day. Having met his Caremark team, I feel the same way, thank you Caremark!
Thank you for your kind words; it was a pleasure to provide care for your Dad.
Or put it another way, perfect.
Nothing has been too much trouble for the whole team whilst they care for my dad.
The visits were all arranged at very short notice and have made Mum and Dad's lives that big bit easier and they know that there will always be someone there to support them.
Thank you for your very kind words. We are glad that we have been able to provide you with the support you needed.
Words cannot adequately express how delighted, relieved and grateful the whole family is for the care provided to my dad. At incredibly short notice the team pulled out all the stops to put care in place to allow him to get home from hospital. The visits are professional, warm and caring, nothing is too much trouble. Communication to and from the office/administration team is just first-class. We all have total confidence in the team.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, your kind words are very much appreciated and I will ensure they are passed on to the carers and office staff.
Caremark (Dover) have been providing support to my father-in-law for the last few months. Recently his health has deteriorated and Caremark have given him a lot of extra care at very short notice. The super carers are doing everything they can to help him. We have also really appreciated the excellent communication between staff and our family.
Thank you so much for leaving a five-star review. We are delighted to hear you are so happy with our services. We will of course pass the feedback to our carers. Thanks once again.
Dealing with a family member who has Alzheimer's, which began about four years ago, has been utterly devasting for all, not least my parent who was a lively, active person before this dreadful disease took away memories and quality of life. We have been lost really, learning about the disease and what care there is. The team who stepped in to help were amazing, really supportive, friendly, caring, and experienced. They were simply just very lovely, kind and nice people who knew exactly how to manage our lovely parent with dignity and professional care. It felt like a weight was lifted because they are so attentive and really on the ball with exactly what is needed, liaising with the family doctor and providing lists of things to buy. They spent time getting to know our parent's story so that when they were visiting they could engage in conversations which makes such a huge difference. The app used for inputting notes after the visit has been so helpful and reassuring too!
Thank you for your kind words, it was a pleasure to help.
Lovely staff and excellent level of care. Mum's needs are met with care and dignity. I can't thank the staff enough.
Thank you for taking the time to review our services, we really appreciate your comments.
The ladies that came to look after my partner were extremely kind and connected really well. I wish I could afford to have them every day. They respected the rules for Covid very well and were on time. I did like the fact that they weren't on their phones all the time like some carers I've used in the past.
