All of the carers are excellent. Communication is very good with the carers and admin staff at all times. Mum is treated with care and consideration. If there are any problems we are contacted immediately. Nothing is too much trouble. Mum is very happy.

Review from C H (Son-in-law of Client) published on 25 March 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We didn’t realise exactly how beneficial to all the family’s needs a care plan would be until it was in place. The carers who attend aren’t just carers, they have become so much more!
We now have peace of mind that our mother cared for the moment from waking up to being out to bed. We are safe in the knowledge that she is getting her meals and being looked after.

Our mother has developed a strong bond with all the carers, which helps massively. Nothing seems too much, and the attitudes are always professional.

Reply from Dave Pickston, Managing Director at Caremark Forest of Dean
Thank you for your review. The staff and care team make every effort to provide person-centred care, underpinned by a very comprehensive assessment that drives the development of the care plan. We also like to treat our service users, and we or our relatives would like to be treated. Of course, if you have any comments on the care plan, please feel free to contact us.

Thanks.

Overall Experience
Caremark have provided an invaluable service to my elderly mother demonstrating the care support and kindness required not only to the patient but to the family members.
Since receiving care support from Caremark (Herefordshire and Forest of Dean) Mother has been much happier and contented being cared for in her own home.

Caremark staff demonstrate best practice and work to meet patients needs at all times. Excellent.
