Overall Experience

Gold Standard Care, and Excellent care service, I am 91 years of age and require my Lymphoedema stockings on am and off pm with waxing before and after. Adelfi arranged this at short notice, never missing or being late. Subsequently rearranged at a moment's notice. Excellent in all areas.

Reply from Wayne Didcote, Director at Adelfi Care Services Ltd

Your heartfelt review really made our day. It's so rewarding to hear that our dedication to your care, especially in managing your Lymphoedema stockings, has made a significant difference. Your appreciation for our punctuality and adaptability reassures us that we're on the right track.

Overall Experience
My, previously active, 91 year old mother had a bad fall, leaving her with limited mobility.
I did my best to look after her, however, very quickly I felt out of my depth, and was struggling to take proper care of her.
I found Adelfi Care online, and they were able to provide assistance within 24 hours' notice.
Their twice-daily visits in the mornings and evenings were a great help, at what was a stressful time for both my mother and myself.
As well as providing practical care, and reassuring advice, it was always very nice to see a friendly face every day.

I would like to thank the manager and her team, for their support, during what was a very difficult time for us both.

Overall Experience

I am very pleased with the service my mother is receiving. She trusts the carers and is comfortable with the personal care they provide. The carers have given lots of advice to the family to ensure that my mother receives the best care they can offer. The carers are very personable and professional and the family and mum have found them very open and approachable. They keep us informed of any issues and concerns they have regarding her health and well-being.

Review from Kay C (Great-Niece of Client) published on 26 January 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We welcomed Adelfi into our lives Sept 2020. Great Aunt was 99 years of age and reluctantly heading towards 100 on Xmas eve 2021. Great Aunt fell in Jan 2020. Up until that stage, she was a positive, strong, forward-thinking person. She was used to having her own way and was determined to stay in her home until her end of days. She became very disturbed throughout her days and nights, especially nights and in September 2020 we had to have help. I was on my knees! I searched locally for help and because of covid, there was little supply of help, especially from any of the council-referred agencies. Adelfi quickly and professionally came back to me and within a week we had a masked meeting! A plan was drawn up for 3 daily visits. Great Aunt was not always cooperative and was still giving us all a huge run-around. We worked together as a team! Through it all, Adelfi were caring, helpful and professional until the very end. I could not have managed without!

We cannot express enough gratitude for your kind words and for taking the time to leave a review about the care services provided for your beloved great aunt.

Review from Adrian A (Son of Client) published on 13 July 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Excellent service, way beyond what was originally planned. Flexible with fitting in with hospital stays, varying levels of care, covering holiday periods, and occasions when we were unable to be around. Initially booked for personal care twice a week, but increased at times to daily visits, and even 3 times a day when his health varied. Impressed that they also told us in advance if they could not arrange on a couple of occasions, as this was during Covid and so their staff situation was under pressure. No false promises! Always available by phone or email to make adjustments. From what I hear from friends in similar situations, that is not always the case with other care providers. Highly recommended.

Overall Experience

I have been a client of Adelfi Care for the better part of a year now, eight months and I have never been let down by the company. The staff are genuinely caring people who are willing to go the extra mile to meet their clients' needs. Their staff are mature and diligent workers who employ great initiative, good communication, and intrinsic empathy to deduce and truly understand their clients' needs, and so provide exactly what help is required. They have a highly experienced management team that looks after their staff well to make sure they are safe and respected so they can in turn keep their clients safe and dignified. I have been very happy with the service and look forward to seeing them grow, for the benefit of others out there like me, in need of what Adelfi does best - high-quality care with a personal focus.

Thank you for your kind words. When we have feedback that articulates in real terms our company ethos and also highlights the amazing work that our staff do each and every day, it makes the challenges that we all currently face (in social care) worth it. I will be sure to share your feedback with the entire team. Thank you again.

Overall Experience

They are continuously consistent in their high level of care and compassion. My mother is treated with respect and all of her needs are covered, they do all of this and give her friendship, having a chat and a laugh which helps to fill her day, as she is totally dependent on them to enable her to stay in her own home which she desperately wants to do which means she has to have four calls a day. It’s great peace of mind to me that she has this amazing care as I live 200 miles away and am unable to contribute physically in her care. They also have an extremely useful app that fully explains everything that takes place on each call so I know on a daily basis how my mother is, any concerns are forwarded to her Doctor as they have permission to do this and I am informed as soon as possible thus saving precious time trying to contact me immediately. They are an amazing company with professional, friendly, caring staff who do everything possible to compensate for my absence.

I highly recommend Adelfi. The managers and others from their team have been visiting my mum in her self assisted care flat to provide care and support to her following a fall she had recently. My mum really liked all of the team and valued the help they provided. They are totally professional, reliable, hugely caring, and all genuinely nice people.

Lucy Didcote

Lucy’s goal has always been to work for a company centred around her core values, that the client’s needs should be at the forefront of everything. This strong ethos has followed her throughout her career and coupled with her knowledge and passion for the industry and people in her care, she felt it was time to open her own business.

Adelfi Care Services is built on those very values that she has carried with her for over 10 years and the business truly puts the needs of its clients first. On top of this, Lucy was adamant that it had to be a great company to work for too so true to those values, our staff are paid above industry standard rates, have access to further academic qualifications and have opportunities to progress.

Starting a business is challenging, and starting a care business is even harder. Building a strong team is paramount and Lucy has done that and expects her exacting standards for care delivery to be maintained every day.
