The carers are all lovely. Treat you with dignity. They always ask me how I am and have you slept well?
When they helped me to get dressed they have a little chat with me.

Certainly, many more than four named. Some carers very willing to assist and asked what else could be done - others did minimum required. A great deal of time spent on recording during the visit by some.

The large number of different carers, inconsistent visit times, and variation in the level of assistance provided are clearly not in line with the agreed plan.

The service is usually fine, but recently, I've noticed the timekeeping has slipped. My mother must have her medication on time, 8 hours apart, when the breakfast call slips to late morning, this affects when her medication is given also. I know you can't make her get out of bed if she doesn't want to, but if she stays in bed all day, it affects her mobility. She needs to walk around, so please encourage her to get up.

I never know the time carers are coming which makes it very difficult for my daughter to take me out in the car or for me to use my mobility scooter. For instance she took me to York shopping on Thursday. My carers have been coming roughly between 4 pm, 4:30 pm or 5 pm. On this date our phone went at 3 pm in York. We said we would be back 1 and a half hours later. On arriving back home in Pocklington phoned Lotus to tell them what had happened and they said they would let the carer know and ask her to visit later but she never came. I know they are very busy and rushed off their feet.

After some issues with timings initially, Lotus Home Care Hull now attend at similar times each day which my dad appreciates. Staff are friendly, polite, caring. There was some duplication with both myself and the staff ordering and collecting medication for dad but this is now sorted and Lotus take full responsibility for ordering and collecting medication which is one less job for me and much appreciated. Thank you .

Overall, the care was very good (especially as it was free, arranged through the NHS).
We did notice some small differences between different staff members, probably largely caused by differences in experience gained in the job. Attention to detail was more complete with some staff members.

We found the uncertainty about when to expect the visit or lack of attention to times indicated was sometimes inconvenient.

However, the help over the whole period (of six weeks) served to lessen the load on myself and on my wife. I am progressing slowly and regaining strength. Thank you.

It sounds like you received good care overall, which is great to hear, especially considering it was arranged through the NHS. Your feedback highlights both positive aspects and areas for improvement, which can be helpful for the service to fine tune its approach. It's understandable that the variability in staff experience and the uncertainty around visit times might have been a bit inconvenient. Those things can sometimes add extra stress, especially when you're already managing recovery. On the plus side, it's wonderful that the care you did receive helped ease the load for both you and your wife during a challenging period. Your progress, even if slow, is encouraging, and I'm sure it's a relief to be gaining strength again. Wishing you continued recovery and a smooth journey ahead. Thank you for sharing your experience. It's valuable feedback and will be passed to the carers.

The care package for my mother-in-law was provided at very short notice when she was discharged from Hull Royal Infirmary back to her apartment. The staff from Lotus Home care provided an excellent service in very difficult and, at times, very awkward circumstances. Much admiration from myself and wife, especially for the manager, in coping, at times late into the evening and weekends, with a rapidly changing series of events.

Call times being changed during the day- not notified - causing meal times to be interrupted or delayed - as a diabetic, this can have a detrimental effect.

Staff polite, on the whole, but overseas staff tend to talk in their own language instead of English to interact and provide social contact.

Thank you for your feedback. I understand that the timing of calls has been causing some issues, with gaps between calls. This can certainly disrupt daily routines, especially with the challenges you've mentioned, like meal times being affected, which can be concerning with health needs, such as diabetes. You have said that most staff are using equipment properly, though some are not fully familiar with all of it. It's essential for all staff to be adequately trained. The changes to call times, particularly without prior notification, is something that can be improved especially during meal times. I understand the concern regarding communication between overseas staff. It's important that all interactions are in English, not only to ensure clear communication but also to maintain social connection.T his will be passed on so that the scheduling can be reviewed, staff training can be addressed, and communication practices can be improved. Thank you again for your feedback.
