Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Visiting Angels. From the moment we reached out, their team showed genuine care, professionalism, and compassion. They took the time to understand our family's needs and created a personalized care plan that made all the difference. The caregivers are incredibly
kind, reliable, and attentive-they treat my loved one with the same respect and warmth as a family member.
Communication with the office staff has been seamless, and they are always responsive and accommodating with any schedule changes or special requests. It's clear that everyone at Visiting Angels truly loves what they do and is committed to improving the quality of life for their clients.
Thanks to their consistent support, we have peace of mind knowing our loved one is safe, comfortable, and happy at home. The care provided goes above and beyond our expectations every single day.

Visiting Angels has supported our family over a few very difficult years. They have been kind, caring and willing to do whatever I required at the time. My parent's needs could change at very short notice, and they have always reacted quickly to any changes I’ve requested. They have provided peace of
mind at times when I was unable to visit my parents.

From the moment I contacted Visiting Angels, the service has been wonderful.
The first meeting at home was so relaxed and professional, it made both my husband and myself have complete confidence in the support that they were going to provide for my husband. For the first time in twenty months, I felt
a weight being lifted from my shoulders and to know that they are always there for me should I need any extra support.

Thank you so much for this glowing review. We are so glad to hear how much we are able to help you and your husband.

The carers are taking good care of my husband and are a great help to me - picking up prescriptions or other things I need. Making sure we have what we need for the day and taking out rubbish from the bins.

Visiting Angels have been looking after Mum for a number of months now. The level of care is outstanding and the team are always on hand to help, provide solutions and recommendations to help Mum's wellbeing. Mum enjoys their visit and the extra companionship this has provided. I would highly recommend
Visiting Angels to assist with the care of loved ones and I can confirm that the care is excellent. This has helped to ease some of my worries as I know the team will keep a close eye on my mum. We keep in touch regularly and they let me know if there are concerns straight away.

I live in an annexe on my son's farm. I look forward to the carers coming each morning, to get me up for the day. They are a grand lot (at times I wish I had them all the time). I had a fall and broke my hip over a year ago and now use a walking frame. Before my fall, I was active and managed my own
affairs. I feel doing my exercises (physio) daily, has helped strengthen my hip.

Job Title: Registered Manager Joined: 2021

I have been in the care sector for nearly 18 years; throughout that time, I have seen some amazing examples of care. My passion for quality person-centred care is at the heart of everything I do, whether it be through training, team meetings or supervision, where caregivers are supported, secure and happy in their role, they provide a higher quality of care.


Allowing both caregivers and clients to reach their potential is my ethos in conjunction with the carer-centric approach at Visiting Angels, allowing us to watch as our caregivers flourish in this supportive environment.
