Excellent. All carers have been kind, friendly and very helpful.
Apart from the early wake up, the carers are so friendly and helpful.
The care received by my husband is excellent by all but especially by his main carer. Well done to Livingstone Care Solutions.
I broke a humerus bone nine weeks ago and also spent 24 hours in hospital. I found it difficult to get assistance but after a delay, the NHS stepped in for 7 days. Then I was recommended three agencies and for no real reason chose Livingstone Care Solutions. For 17 days their ladies called and helped me prepare for the day. I have nothing but praise for their help and am so pleased that I chose Livingstone.
We have found all carers respectful, kind and considerate and allowing my husband's dignity to remain as far as possible. We thank them all.
I needed care for the first time after a major operation. Livingstone Care Solutions responded quickly to my enquiry and sent a senior carer the same day to assess my needs. I needed care for seven days, twice a day and the same carer came apart from one occasion. It was a pleasure to be cared for by kind, caring, empathic carers. The level of care enhanced my recovery and I recommended and will use Livingstone Care for future care needs.
We have been very pleased with all the carers who have been. They are all polite, friendly and very helpful. They will listen and work in the way I need in order to assist my progress.
All the carers have been excellent and efficient and caring.
I am very pleased with all my carers. They are bright and happy when they arrive, very efficient, gentle and careful.
We have been involved with at least five care agencies. Livingstone Care Solutions was our last care agency and the difference it made to my husband was enormous. Previous carers were almost always talking to each other over my husband’s head, but the carers from this agency never did. They only talked to my husband in quiet voices. Time did not matter, there was no rushing and all the carers were so patient and treated my husband with such dignity. I could see the difference it made to my husband almost from day 1.
The care that was given to my mother was absolutely amazing. The team that supported her throughout her last months were caring, professional, kind and understanding and dealt with her needs always with a smile, patience and integrity. I could not have done this without their help. Truly beautiful, kind people who I would recommend anyone to. We thank you and wish all the team well from our whole family.
I knew they would deal with any problem I may have had. They are brilliant at what they do, they are my heroes.
Having this wonderful care company was a real blessing in our lives. They were so caring compassionate and always professional. My niece trusted them completely she was treated with such dignity. Their care was delivered in a calm, unhurried and gentle way. I would hear them making my niece laugh which was a great comfort. The carers helped to make the last few months of her life comfortable and more bearable. They also gave comfort to us her family showing us great care. They enabled my niece to stay in her own home for as long as possible.
Thank you, this is very much appreciated. It was a pleasure supporting our lovely client. She was the best client ever.
Pivotal in managing to keep my sister at home, in her own magical space, at the end of her life, We cannot thank you enough. Caregivers were always tender, professional and empathetic and immediately become valued members of our family. Experienced, knowledgeable and always available day and night. My admiration and gratitude know no bounds. You are all amazing. Thank you.
Your sister was amazing. Thank you very much and we are here if you need anything.
I was very impressed by the standard of care. The carers were always respectful and polite. Their work was a high standard in most areas even when there had to be a change in staff to cover ongoing attention and reliability.
These lovely carers are wonderful. Always so caring and happy. They make my dad's day. Such high standards. He is always beautifully clean and dressed. Nothing is too much trouble and they don't look rushed. I could not have asked for any better care. They are all so amazing. 100% +
I can’t praise enough Livingstone Care Solutions excellent carers that went beyond to build up trust with a person with a terminal illness. They showed great skills and professionalism all way through.
Since Livingstone Care Solutions took over my care package in October 2021 I have always found the entire team to be of an excellent standard. Very professional, always friendly and full of advice, they are a joy to be around. I cannot find words of sufficient value and praise that can reflect how lucky I feel to have them care for me, led by an excellent Manager who always is in the field supporting her team and being a good leader. I wish I had found them earlier.
Thank you very much for the feedback. The team has always worked well with you and the family and it has been a joy.
I was very sceptical after seeing the CQC reports but was totally blown away by the service we received.
Found everyone was so caring very very respectful, really couldn't ask for better.
Will definitely use it in the future if we ever need carers again.
Well done to the Manager and the team.
Thank you so much for the feedback. I am very glad you gave us a chance and glad we exceeded your expectation.
We are all so grateful for the efficient and reliable care that dad received each day. All of the workers were cheerful and warm, always looking after him with great dignity, tenderness and humour! They also spent time with mum, building a trusting and supportive relationship with her too, which was a great comfort for her.
The team were sensitive at all times to dad's needs as well as our family as a whole, were never in a rush and were always willing to answer our questions.
We highly recommend this organisation to anyone looking for care in a similar situation.
Thank you!
Thank you very much .

I have worked within the care sector for many years, I now wish to give back to the community, which I feel is the best way possible. I started this business to provide the highest quality care in a person's own home.
