I started using this care company about one year ago and can honestly say that in all that time I have never been let down, as somehow they always seem able to come up with "the goods" even when they are under a lot of pressure trying to fit every body in.
The reason for their success seems to stem
from very good leadership emanating from the top downwards.
Long may they continue!

Advice to anyone looking for care, this care provider is utterly unprofessional and will leave you stranded without care. You will receive emails late at night saying that they are struggling with their staffing, and the next day, they'll email you around after lunch to say that they are unable to support
you and terminate your contract as of the next day leaving you insufficient time to find a replacement care agency. The management is very unprofessional. I do not advise this care provider to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy agency, especially if you have any elderly/vulnerable children or adult family members looking for care, I am talking from experience. This company certainly doesn't live up to its name.

We were moved from local authority carers to this company for my late father and without much notice. I was very sceptical, however, I need not have been. The carers from Care Is Where The Heart is, are phenomenal, nothing is too much trouble. The care provided was very patient-centered. Every girl
that came into my father's property was always polite and each time they entered they announced who they were before approaching my father's room. The slightest concern for pain or in fact any concern at all related to my father's care was escalated and sorted. One evening whilst waiting for some supplies to arrive, one carer went and purchased said supply from a chemist as I was at work. The management of this company takes their role seriously, helping to sort issues with GPs and district nurses, they also do rounds with their carers tending to clients' care needs. I would strongly recommend this company for anyone's care needs after our experience. Definitely deserve 5-star ratings, each and every one.

We rate most services according to how safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led they are, using four levels:
Outstanding - the service is performing exceptionally well.
Good - the service is performing well and meeting our expectations.
Requires improvement - the service isn't performing as well as it should and we have told the service how it must improve.
Inadequate - the service is performing badly and we've taken enforcement action against the provider of the service.
No rating/under appeal/rating suspended - there are some services which we can't rate, while some might be under appeal from the provider. Suspended ratings are being reviewed by us and will be published soon.
Ticks and crosses
We don't rate every type of service. For services we haven't rated we use ticks and crosses to show whether we've asked them to take further action or taken enforcement action against them.
There's no need for the service to take further action. If this service has not had a CQC inspection since it registered with us, our judgement may be based on our assessment of declarations and evidence supplied by the service.
