Review from C H (Daughter of Client) published on 21 July 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The staff of Appleby Care went above and beyond on many occasions for us on behalf of my dad and in turn my mum. All of the carers who came were patient, competent, friendly and respectful and Prosper the main carer was brilliant getting dad to do his twice daily rehab exercises to help with his mobility.

Kind, considerate and caring with a truly professional attitude in all that they did for my father. There was no slapdash rushing off as soon as possible, visits showed what quality care is all about.
Many thanks to a fantastic quality, caring team at Appleby Care.

Appleby has been nothing short of amazing in supporting my mum's care. Since her dementia and Alzheimer's diagnosis, things have been challenging, and we wouldn't have been able to navigate her care without their exceptional support.
They consistently keep us updated on their visits and ensure we are
well informed about Mum's well-being. They truly go above and beyond-attending meetings with local authorities to advocate for the care she needs. The team are an absolute Godsend, and we couldn't manage Mum's care effectively without them!

The maximum Review Score for a Home Care Provider is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.897 for Appleby Care is calculated as follows: ( (26 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 29 Ratings = 4.897
