Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have a variety of needs. The careworkers help me as much as possible. I do not always know who will come, but whoever it is they always have time to smile and joke, whilst helping me. I try, and manage, to get help before I am collected for a visit to the hospital. The care manager arranges a carer
in my home when I return after a few days.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum has been looked after by caremark for quite a long time. She was eventually on 4 visits per day and each visit was well looked after. She started to have falls and each time the carer contacted me immediately, and waited with mum until I arrived or until help came. The carer reassured mum that everything
was going to be OK which was a great comfort.
It was a difficult decision for me to arrange for mum to go to a carehome but she has become bedbound. Caremark offered different ways they could help her to try and keep her at home for which I was extremely grateful.
Reply from Tina Moore, Care Manager at Caremark Peterborough

The girls do a superb job in spite of having so many clients to attend to.
They are friendly and have time to talk whilst they are working.
If problems arise with maybe cars not starting or such like I have been able to inform Caremark and they try to amend the situation as soon as possible.
If I
have an appointment to attend at the hospital they will make sure I am seen in time for leaving,
Very satisfied with all care.

Overall Experience 2.0 out of 5
Poor communication. Little contact with the agency even though they said they would visit weekly. Say they will visit and don't turn up or let us know they cannot attend. Said they would do a handover each time the live-in carer changes over, never happens. They don't always let us know who will replace
the current carer or when. The carer usually tells us. Very poor considering the costs involved. It makes the family question what they are doing. Very little support.

From the very first evening, I knew I liked my new carers! They were different and yet I felt I'd known them forever. I don't like going to bed at 7 pm (ish!) but appreciate it is necessary. My carers are always very helpful and we often have a giggle together or even a proper laugh, yet not a minute
is wasted because the teams of two work so well together. Nor have I ever heard an angry word spoken. They both know what to do and get on and do it. So thanks to all of you. I didn't mention mornings but all I've said applies to all times. My thanks to all of you, I should perhaps have said.

Caremark has been attending to my wife after a hip operation in 2022 and has given excellent service. The staff are polite, friendly and caring. They are efficient and respectful in attending to personal needs and carrying out their duties in a professional manner. We would not hesitate to recommend
this company to anyone else.

It was an absolute pleasure being able to care for your father in the last stages of his life. He was a gentleman. We were all always made to feel like part of the family and this made our job of providing a high level of care very easy.

Had used Caremark since March 2022 after Dad was diagnosed with bowel cancer, he was a very private person who would not let anyone do anything private for him. After a couple of months, he gained the trust of all the Caremark team and would just do as they asked with no pressure. They were all very
dignified to the end and have called to check up on the family. Very impressed by the whole team.

Review from Liz H (Daughter of Client) published on 5 April 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I invited Caremark (Peterborough) to visit my mother who lived with us in September so we could discuss their suitability to meet mum's care needs. Mum had recently had a diagnosis of cancer secondaries in her bone and we wanted an agency that could care for mum as her illness progressed, to provide
end of life care. With my prior working background as a District Nursing Sister and Health Visitor, I had very high expectations of the care I wanted for my mother. Caremark (Peterborough) were excellent from the day I met them for interview, to the day mum died. All the team were professional, caring, respectful, punctual and excellent communicators. The standard of care delivered including care plans, record keeping, delivery of medication, personal care, management of equipment and liaison with other agencies was at all times of an excellent standard. I would have been very happy to have had them as part of my nursing team.
Most importantly mum loved them and died with dignity in her own home.
