The Carers and Caring Team at Unique Homecare are brilliant. I live a very long distance from my Mum and they keep me informed of what is happening with her health and support needs. This is extremely reassuring. They are very responsive to my requests and act upon them promptly, keeping me informed all the time. Mum really enjoys having the Carers come in to assist her and to have a chat.
We are so grateful that you took the time to kindly leave us a review and that your experience of our service has been so positive. We will ensure that your feedback is passed on to your mums care team
Good service, everyone very polite & friendly.
Thank you so much for your review, we are very pleased to hear that you are happy with the service.
We have only been a customer of Unique Homecare since mid December 2025. We have been very pleased how the morning carer service has bedded down so quickly. Our father feels very comfortable with the carers and the care they provide. The carers are very kind, considerate and always looking to complete as many tasks as they can for our father
We are very grateful that you have taken the time to leave us a review and for choosing our services. It is lovely to hear that your dad has settled in to the carers visits so so smoothly and that things are going well.
Amazing service could not fault them. Special thank you to Natasha and Nicola always going above and beyond. Could not recommend them anymore. Always vigilant and making sure the best care is provided.
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience, we are very grateful and happy to hear that you are pleased with our services
All the carers are very kind, helpful chatty friendly, look after my husband with dignity and great care.
We are so grateful for you kindly taking the time to leave us a review of our services. It is lovely to hear that you have found both our carers and management to be caring, kind, friendly, helpful and honest. These are all qualities we pride ourselves on and strive to achieve.
As a family we can't recommend Unique Homecare highly enough. Unique's communication in person, on the phone and on the app was always clear and effective - at the same time friendly and professional. Nothing felt too much trouble.
Carers were always on time and treated Mum with kindness and respect, seeing her as an individual and responding sensitively to her changing needs. They also supported Dad with practical tasks and their presence gave him some valuable respite as he cared for Mum.
Thank you so much the lovely review! We are very grateful that you put your trust in our company, it has been our absolute pleasure to care for your mum and support your dad.
My Mum has Unique carers helping her every day and has done for a couple of years now. It was such a relief to find a care company who cared, are professional and do such a great job. Mum is listened to, feels safe and I know when I am away I can relax knowing they will be looking after her. Unique communicate with me well and encourage us to contact them if there are any concerns or changes we would like. All of the carers are very well trained and always spend the allotted time with my Mum. They carry out personal care, meal preparation and cleaning and do a thorough job every visit.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review of your experience of our services. We are really pleased to hear that your mum is benefiting from our visits and that it is giving you that all important peace of mind so that you can relax during your time away.
I would not hesitate to recommend Unique Healthcare Lincoln. They helped me navigate my parents care needs, taking into account my parents wishes at all times while listening and understanding my increasing concerns about the fragility of their home situation. The care staff were respectful, supportive, caring, always listened and I always felt that they saw the person rather than tasks or a job to be done. My parents were therefore able to establish and maintain good relationships with them and feel valued, listened to and care about. The office staff were incredibly helpful, understanding and supportive. They did all they could to allocate consistent carers on a regular basis. They kept good time so my parents knew when to expect visits. . I always felt they were incredibly fair about costs and did all they could to keep them affordable. Excellent service all round during what has been a very challenging time.
Thank you so much for the lovely review. We are really happy that we were able to help and make a difference for you and your parents during a challenging time
I have nothing but good to say of this company. I am very pleased with the treatment I am receiving.
We are really pleased to hear that you are happy with the service and thank you so much for taking the time to kindly leave us a review to share your experience.
We have used Unique for over 12 months and can only praise the care and attention they provided my parents. The carers would go over and above completing many different tasks around the house that really helped their day to day life. A very personable and professional company. Highly recommend.
We are so appreciative of you taking the time to share a review of your experience. It has been our pleasure to care for your mum and we will ensure this feedback is passed on to her carers.
Very satisfied. The carers are always on time, professional and caring. It has been comforting to know that management are checking in from time to time too.
Thank you so much for kindly leave us a review. We are so pleased that you are happy with the care being provided and grateful that you chose and trusted the team at Unique to support your dad.
Mum's needs were regularly assessed and her care plan modified as required: the team always responded quickly to our requests.
The communication with us as daughters was effective and efficient , handled with great care and sensitivity.
There were a number of occasions when carers stayed with my Mum at short notice, to maintain her safety until we could reach her. The care demonstrated on these occasions was outstanding and quite possibly unique.
My Mum and I can recommend this company without reservation and I will be forever grateful for the impact they made in Mum's final years.
Thank you for taking the the time to leave such a lovely, personalised review. We are so grateful that you chose and trusted us to support your mum, the team have such wonderful memories of the time spent with her and she will always hold a special place in our hearts.
Unique have cared for my mother in law for the past few years, we cannot fault them, always letting us know if she was okay and doing everything thing we asked. Treated her with kindness and respect I would highly recommend them.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, we are very grateful. It was a pleasure to care for your mum and it means the world to us that we were able to help and make a difference.
I have been so impressed by the service I've received from Unique Homecare. Email responses to my initial enquiries were not only prompt but very helpful and I have subsequently been able to choose a level of care for my mother specifically tailored to her needs at the moment. The carers have been so willing, practical and friendly and very punctual too! Whenever I've had any contact with Unique, whether in person or by telephone, it has been friendly and efficient and my overall impression so far is one of a very professional service. I've personally felt so reassured at what has been a difficult and uncertain time and I'd recommend them to anyone in a similar position.
Thank you so much for the wonderful review, we are really grateful that you have taken the time to share your experience and that you are happy with the service being provided
We currently have three morning visits a week just to give me a few mornings without having a carer visit to do beforehand. Whenever we've needed additional visits the team have been instant to respond.
Communication from the team is brilliant. We use a message book for quick requests for the carer to do such as moving a lunch plate down for mum in her fridge. The team are always quick to let me know if they have spotted anything with mums health during their visit via email and phone.
Mum was also invited to a Christmas social with the team and other service users and although she was unable to attend this last one it was nice for her to recieve an invitation.
Thank you for the wonderful review and feedback. We are very grateful to you for taking the time to share this and pleased that we have been able to make a difference for you and your mum.
The lady who comes fortnightly to spend time with my wife, who has Alzheimer's, is very caring, professional and so very friendly. When visiting she fully engages my wife in conversations and spends time helping her with crosswords and word search books. While I can do these tasks having a someone else involved stimulates my wife's mind and does her a lot of good.
Thank you so much for your review. Its lovely to hear that your wife has built up a strong connection with her regular carer and that it is helping to keep her mind stimulated, we will make sure that your kind words are passed on.
Overall excellent service from all involved in my care. Having just joined Unique Homecare Lincoln I didn't know what to expect. The sensitive, professional way in which I was approached came when I was at my lowest I can't thank enough.
We are so grateful for your review. It means so much to us that our lovely team were able to help and support you. Thank you.
You do get what you pay for! A little over the average hourly rate but worth every single penny! You would be lucky to find better communication skills and constant monitoring of your loved ones, which gives you peace of mind and allows your life to carry on.
Don't hesitate to call this company, you will not regret it!
Thank you so much for the wonderful review. It was a pleasure to care for your mum and I will make sure this is passed on to everyone who supported her. We are very lucky and grateful to have a wonderful team who make the company what it is.
I've only recently joined Unique as a client. I'm 83, male, and a stroke victim with fairly significant mobility issues. Living alone and needing further help at weekends I was advised to contact Unique. What a wonderful piece of advice. From day one it's been an exceptional experience. Admission procedures were swift and efficient, including a visit to my own home by a senior member of staff. What followed in practice was a template of that first impression. The frontline carers are first-rate. Punctuality and reliability are 'givens'. Generous with their time and spirit, they are such welcoming ambassadors to the quality of care that Unique provides. Administratively, the constituent parts of the company work in unison, all on the same page. Training of staff is rigorous and much appreciated. I experienced first-hand the shadowing visits for new recruits. I have no hesitation in recommending Unique to anyone seeking exceptional care provision.
Thank you so much for the wonderful review and recommendation to others seeking care. We are very grateful and pleased that you are happy with the service that we are providing.
I have been using Unique Homecare Services to provide personal care and home help for my mum for around six months now and our experience has been very positive. The initial assessment was very thorough and the subsequent care plan was well tailored to suit my mum's specific needs and preferences. My mum has been happy with the care she has received so far-she has found the carers respectful, attentive and patient. I have been very impressed with both the service's quality of communication with me and the flexibility of the care they have provided to accommodate my mum's circumstances.
We are so pleased that you are impressed with our services and have had a positive experience. Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, we're really grateful.

Rachael completed her Diploma in Mental Health Nursing at the University of Nottingham, Lincoln campus in 2005.
She went on to spend 13 years working in forensic services gaining a wealth of experience in the care and treatment of service users with acute mental illnesses and complex needs. During this time also achieved a BSc (Hons) Degree in Mental Health and Social Care.
In 2018 Rachael joined the Continuing Healthcare Team in Bassetlaw in the role of Nurse Assessor working alongside the CCG. This required skills and knowledge in the provision and commissioning of care in the community through conducting comprehensive assessments of the mental and physical health needs of service users and their subsequent care requirements to ensure that those needs were met to ensure the best quality of life.
