My husband who is the client of Homelium in Sherborne, likes his carers so much, his is actually waiting for their visits, which was not always the case with different providers. They are professional but kind and smiley despite the fact that they are dealing with some difficult life situations. So we salute them. Thank you.
Thank you so much for your kind words. We're really touched to hear that your husband looks forward to his visits, that means a great deal to us and I know the carers will really love to hear this feedback. Our carers truly care about the people they support and your appreciation will mean the world to them. Thank you for taking the time to share this.
As the daughter of someone having care, its amazing to see how well my father gets along with those caring for him. They treat him professionally when needed but also treat him like a friend the rest of the time. I love chatting to them and getting to know them, ss they care for my father. Its enjoyable to see.
Thank you so much for your kind words. It means a great deal to us to hear how comfortable and happy your father is with our team. Building genuine, respectful relationships is at the heart of what we do, and we're so pleased that comes across. We really appreciate you taking the time to share this.
The Homelium Sherborne team have been wonderful. They arrive on time, are cheerful and personable, and are respectful towards my mother. She enjoys their visits very much, saying how kind they all are. The carers leave the house clean and tidy. Communication is good. Would recommend.

It has been a great service through out. All the carers are really friendly. They have been amazing with my father and always been very professional with his needs as well as keeping him good company. This was our first experience having carers come into our family home and they couldn't have made it any easier.
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience. We're really pleased to hear that our carers have been friendly, professional, and supportive and that they've been able to make such a positive difference to your father's care.

I am more than happy with the variety and efficiency of a young enthusiastic unit. Having not heard of Homelium before I would happily recommend my local team.
Thank you so much for your kind words, Shirley! We're delighted you're happy with the Sherborne team and how any concerns were resolved. Your recommendation means a lot and we'll be sure to share your feedback with the team!
I must say that all the carers that visit her have made her living at home possible, enjoyable and above all puts both minds at ease.
Great job done by all, Thank you
Thank you so much for your kind words. We're delighted to hear that our carers have helped make your mother's wish to remain at home possible and reassuring for you both. Your feedback means a lot to our team. We will be sure to pass this on to the care team!
Homelium has genuinely transformed my life. It's given me a level of freedom, independence, and dignity that I never thought possible. From the very beginning, everything was handled with care, respect, and professionalism. I feel listened to, supported, and empowered. It's not just about practical help-it's about feeling human again, being able to make choices, and having space to breathe. I can now enjoy everyday life more fully, and that's priceless. I'm incredibly grateful for the difference this has made
Thank you so much for sharing this. Your words mean the world to us and remind us exactly why we do what we do We're honoured to be part of your journey.
All staff are amazing and do their job to a very high standard.
It's all about care and that's exactly what these folks do .
Nothing seems to be to much trouble so all in all an excellent service.
Thank you

Our team is passionate about making a difference, and it means a great deal to know their efforts are appreciated. Thank you again for your trust in us.
I would recommend Homelium to anyone who needs some extra help.
Thank you so much for your kind words. We're truly delighted to hear that our carers have made such a positive impression and are already becoming a friendly part of your daily routine. It's lovely to hear the dog approves too! We're grateful for your recommendation and proud to be supporting you both.
The only thing I would change are the early visits. 8.30am and 5.45pm would be ideal for me. I like the fact that a little light cooking is available with the staff and help with personal care is offered. Being a former Care Assistant myself for 25 years is important.
Thank you for your kind feedback and for sharing your experience so far. We're really pleased to hear that your first week with us has gone well. We appreciate your suggestion about visit times and will review this with the team to ensure we can best accommodate your preferences of call times. It's lovely to support someone with such a strong background in care.
Very pleased overall with the quality of care my husband receives. Carers are kind and compassionate and generally knowledgeable especially as my husbands needs are very complex. They are punctual, in uniform with identity badges. He enjoys their company and is happy.
Thank you so much for your kind words. We're delighted to hear that your husband is receiving the compassionate and high-quality care he deserves. Our team takes great pride in being punctual, professional, and knowledgeable, especially when supporting complex needs. It's wonderful to know he...
My brother has been a client for nearly 4 years and we are very happy with the excellent care they provide. He enjoys the company of the carers and I have peace of mind knowing he is being well cared for. Problems pop up with my brother from time to time and I feel safe in the knowledge that one phone call to the carer and it's sorted. Nothing is too much trouble, they truly are a godsend.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We are so glad to hear you and your brother are satisfied with the care we provide and that he enjoys the company of our carers.
Very caring, considerate and professional and aware of client's needs. They keep in touch with the client's family and they make sure the client has all the necessary items that they need. Makes sure the client is comfortable. The client really enjoys seeing members of the care team. They are so kind and helpful. Would highly and thoroughly recommend it.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review, we are so glad to hear our carers keep in touch with your family, on top of providing excellent care!
My brother is on end-of-life heart failure and they came to the hospital to arrange when they're coming out. The communication is great and the cares are so lovely. I'd highly recommend this company. They care not just about my brother, they care about me and even if I don't need help sometimes just having a chat helps.
Thank you for your kind words and for trusting Homelium with your brother's care. It's our privilege to provide the support he needs. We'll continue to do everything we can to ensure his comfort and well-being. We are glad to hear our carers care for you as well, this is something we value highly.
I have been with this care company since January and this is my first experience of care in the home and the care has been consistently of a very high standard, adapting to my changing needs over this period of time. All carers have taken responsibility for the various required health related equipment that is used on a daily basis. In the last few weeks I have been suffering from a cold which has required extensive full use of the cough assist which most carers have happily adapted to. All carers are friendly and accommodating and have fitted into our daily family routines with the minimum amount of intrusion.
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with our team here at Homelium. We are delighted to hear that you've found our care to be consistently of a high standard and adaptable to your evolving needs. Our carers take great pride in supporting clients with personalised care and...
I do not have many dealings with the provider's office so generally speak to senior carers of needs. Most concerns are the availability of carers at times, of which I believe can affect care providers in general these days. Unfortunately, under today's climate, not all carers are suitable to caring and do not last long.
Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback. This is helpful for us to understand how we can further improve our service. We will be in touch with you directly to discuss further and ensure you are happy with the staff members and the call times are more suitable.

My journey into the world of care started with late-night shifts for my mother-in-law’s care home, all while my husband was on duty in Bosnia. It was a unique introduction that sparked my passion for personalised care!
What I love most about my role is the opportunity to tailor care for each client and connect them with the perfect team of carers. One memorable accomplishment that stands out is making sure a desperate family could reunite with their dad for Christmas. On Christmas Eve, I went above and beyond, conducting a care assessment in the hospital and checking out the home environment, ensuring a heartwarming Christmas Eve reunion. The smiles on their faces made it all worthwhile.
A little bit about me: I may not have a quirky skill, but I sure can sing! I was an alto in the Military Wives Choir. Singing is my stress-buster and my way of bringing joy to others! My go-to karaoke song would be “Fairytale of New York”- my husband popped the question on a horse-drawn carriage in Central Park- a real-life fairytale in the city that never sleeps!
