Review from Jeanette M (Daughter of Client) published on 7 July 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Hi all. These lovely people look after my dad. It was a stressful time for him needing carers but made so much easier by Cross Care. I cannot name people who are brilliant as I wouldn't want to leave anyone out! You know who you are! I will say that it is a breath of fresh air when the owners/directors do a shift as a carer. It's inspiring to think that they are still interested in what's happening right there in my dad's home. The management is approachable and really listens to my worries. Thank you all so much here's hoping we can be working together for a good while yet.

Overall Experience

The team provided excellent care and help to my nan. We initially started with evening visits but then moved to mornings as well. Nan was reluctant to have carers initially, but they overcame her concerns and she enjoyed their visits. If they had any concerns then they would inform the family. Having access to the reports was helpful and reassuring for the family. I recommend Cross Care to anyone who is looking for people to look after their relative in their own home. Thank you to all the carers for your care and patience.

Overall Experience
Initially, Mum was very reluctant to employ carers as she felt a failure and didn’t want the intrusion of other people coming in to help her. However, the way Cross Care approached her at the outset of care a few months ago, explaining how they work and what they could do for her, enabled her to agree to help. Mum has found it makes a real difference to have someone help her get up, washed, dressed and provided breakfast from a friendly very caring team. She loves that they know her little ways as well as specific things she needs done daily. So much so; that the amount of support has increased from mornings to include a bedtime visit as well.

As her daughter, I can relax knowing Mum is getting excellent care and help from a lovely friendly team. If anything is wrong or different or of concern, I am immediately notified. This gives me immense peace of mind. I am now able to visit and have a game of scrabble or sit and chat, rather than only having time to provide all her care.

Overall Experience

The care my mother receives from her carers from Cross Care is fantastic. She was reluctant to have carers initially, but now she looks forward to their visits and loves them. They are always so pleasant and helpful and let me know if there is anything that is concerning them through the Directors or if they answer the phone when I call Mum. I recommend Cross Care to anyone who is looking for people to look after their relative in their own home. Thank you all so much.

Reply from Katie Doyle, Managing Director at Cross Care

Thank you so much for your kind words. The support worker's really enjoy visiting your mum. She has a good giggle with them.

Overall Experience
Cross Care provided the very best care for Mum at her time of need. The care manager and team of carers were so kind and caring, very approachable and very helpful.

Just wish they had been around when we needed care for my dad. Out of all the care companies we've had experience with, and we've seen the best and the worst in care agencies, Cross Care were the very best.

Reply from Katie Doyle, Managing Director at Cross Care

It was an absolute pleasure caring for your mum. She really was a lovely lady. I, myself enjoyed visiting her and hearing about her life growing up. I would often stay longer just to hear those stories. She will be missed by all.

Overall Experience
We have been through a very difficult time with mum’s illness and the rehab team had successfully helped us make the move for mum to go from our house to her own home. From the very first point of contact with Cross Care, I felt reassured that this would continue. I spoke with the manager and she immediately put me at ease, knowing that mum would be in safe hands. Any communication has been instantly replied to (even at late hours).
Mum says some lovely things about the carers and has built up relationships easily and quickly, which I feel is down to the caring nature of the team.
The team are generous of their time and truly live up to name, ‘Carer’. I would highly recommend them to anyone who asked.

I feel that mum is in safe hands. It means a lot to me to know that she has her daily visits from genuine, caring, lovely people. Thank you.

Overall Experience
Firstly I would like to thank all carers involved with my dad's care.
Before I met the care team my dad would always have lovely words to say about them. He enjoyed the chats at night time and the laughs they had. He always felt comfortable with them at all times. They were always there to support my dad's partner.

During the last few weeks, I saw more of the care team and when as my dad was getting worse they would explain everything that was happening and would happen. As I did not live close by, I felt at ease knowing they were there. I would get phone calls to let me know how he was. On his final day, I was called to say he had passed and that they were all with him and how peaceful it was. I will always be thankful for the help and support that they gave.

I'm extremely happy with Cross Care.

I feel I'm leaving my mum in very good hands when I'm unable to be there myself. They're always punctual and always deliver the best care with lots of happy chatter. They always go the extra mile with a smile.
