I would like to say a big thank you to all the Visiting Angels who have helped my 99 year old Mum stay in her own home for as long as possible. As her daughter, I have always felt supported in what can be challenging times. They have shown kindness and compassion and put my Mum's needs first at all
times.

We started to use Visiting Angels last April after dad broke his hip. Right from the start, when they came to assess him, we knew that Visiting Angels were the right carers for dad. They took time to get to know him and his likes and dislikes. As he lived with us we wanted people that we felt comfortable
with coming into our home and this was always the case. One of the things we liked was the flexibility they offered for shorter visits as he improved. His carer was always very willing to help or change timings if he wanted. I would highly recommend Visiting Angels and if dad hadn't had to go into a care home we would still be using them today. Thank you for all the help and care you gave him.

Reply from Marie Rigg, General Manager at Visiting Angels Central Surrey

Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful review. It was truly our privilege to care for your dad and to support your family during his recovery. Were so pleased to hear that you felt comfortable with our team in your home and that the flexibility and personal approach made a difference. Your recommendation is greatly appreciated. Please don't hesitate to reach out if we can support you again in the future. Wishing your dad and your family all the very best.

Having been my wife's sole carer for nearly 7 years, a stroke in April 2022 forced me to seek outside help. At first I have serious reservations but soon came to appreciate Visiting Angels- the carers have always treated my wife with dignity and patience despite her sometimes difficult behaviour, and
they have provided me with invaluable and varied social contact. And the management have always been approachable and helpful.

The Visiting Angels Central Surrey team helped my dad to stay in his own home for as long as possible. The carers were kind and compassionate and used their initiative to see what needed to be done.
They were also flexible when my dad needed an additional visit each day and responsive if I phoned with
a query.
I would definitely recommend Visiting Angels to families looking for care.
Thank you.

Visiting Angels assisted during Mum's Christmas stay with us - excellent service, a great help, and really did put the word 'Care' into Carers. Would certainly use it again or recommend it. Very many thanks.

Visiting Angels cared for my mother for 12 months. They were supremely flexible with different care packages, trying to find the one that best suited my mother. The carers consistently demonstrated great skill and strategies in trying to support someone who turned out to be such a tricky and resistant
client as her dementia progressed. I would highly recommend them.

Words cannot express my gratitude for one staff member in particular. He is truly one of the most remarkable souls I have ever encountered. True kindness, he has gone above and beyond for my father on countless occasions. Without Visiting Angeles, we would have been lost. Thank you!

I have been very impressed with Visiting Angels right from the beginning. We needed carers very suddenly, following my mother’s injury, and I was amazed how quickly we were able to establish a visiting care routine. All the carers I have met have been professional and compassionate and seem happy in
their job. It has been very easy to alter the care provision and react to changes in circumstances as my mother’s needs evolved. Overall, I am very happy that we picked Visiting Angels from the agencies listed.

I’ve never come across someone more caring and who goes above and beyond like the carer does from Visiting Angels. When my brother and I can’t get to my Dad quick enough he offers to go even if he’s not working. I feel so much more at ease knowing that he and his team are providing my dad with the best
possible care. Thank you so much.

Following a live-in carer arranged by another company, I changed to Visiting Angels. Having new carers visit me has enabled me to stay in my own home where I want to be. The staff are handy and helpful and I love seeing their cheery faces. They make me laugh and appreciate anything they do for me. Thank
you Visiting Angels.

Visiting Angels is exactly that!
I needed help after breaking my leg with keeping on top of daily housework and chores. I have two large dogs!
The service was put in place within a couple of days of our meeting and every day, without fail, the carers arrive. They check with me what I need doing on
the day and just get on with the job.
Each carer is very efficient, considerate and thoughtful and always asks if there is anything else I need or they can do for me.
My recovery will only be a few months but in the meantime, Visiting Angels has made my life so much easier and bearable. Highly recommend their service.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Home Care Provider is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.989 for Visiting Angels Central Surrey is calculated as follows: ( (89 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 90 Ratings = 4.989

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Visiting Angels Central Surrey is based on 15 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 5

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Home Care Provider does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.

Over the years I have seen a variety of standards of care which has made me determined to ensure that everyone gets the quality care and support they deserve, my role gives me the opportunity to expand our services and provide that premium quality care that customers have come to expect from our valued team of caregivers, we like to call them Angels.
We know that our Angels are brilliant, caring, professional people doing amazing work. Too often homecare workers are under-appreciated but at Visiting Angels we put carers at the centre of our business to make sure they can deliver a truly person-centred premium quality service to you or your loved ones.
One of my personal aspirations has always been to make a difference in people's lives, whenever and wherever I can, and I have been drawn by the genuine emphasis on premium quality care at Visiting Angels and believe in their ethos, values, and culture.

Joined: 2022

I have 10 years of experience in social care. Starting as a care worker I then progressed to senior care worker before becoming a care coordinator. I am very proud to become part of the team at Visiting Angels as a Registered Manager.


Being passionate about care and having seen over the years the pressure and stress that short visits, poor pay, and no travel time can put on both care workers and providers alike I was drawn to the carer centric values of Visiting Angels. With minimum hourly visits, travel time and constant support from management our Angels are able to provide person-centred care helping people to continue to live at home happily and independently with their friends and family. I am pleased to be a part of a team delivering the standard of care I would want my own family to receive.
