We have used Proper Home Care since Feb 2025 to provide care for our elderly mother. Throughout this period, the service has been consistently positive. The caregivers demonstrated compassion and attentiveness, prioritising our mother's comfort and safety at all times. The staff exhibited a high level
of professionalism & responded promptly & clearly to any queries, utilising both a dedicated app & a social media messaging group for communication. They ensured transparency regarding any requirements or adjustments in care, enabling us to stay informed & act swiftly when necessary. Regrettably, our mother passed away at home a few weeks ago, a setting she expressed as her preference. During this time, the team collaborated effectively with the palliative care professionals to maintain her comfort. The support extended to family members was exceptional, & we are sincerely appreciative of their efforts. We would confidently recommend Proper Home Care Ltd to others seeking a home care service.

Reply from Reka Kovacs, Director at Proper Home Care Ltd

Thank you so much for your kind and heartfelt words. It was truly our honour to care for your dear mother - she was a beautiful person, and left a lasting impression on all of us. We're grateful to have been a part of her journey and to have supported her in remaining at home, just as she wished.Please know that it was our genuine pleasure to look after her, and we are deeply touched by your appreciation. On behalf of the entire team at Proper Home Care, we would like to extend our warmest thoughts and heartfelt condolences to you and your family.

The service began very efficiently and my mother was very happy with the initial carers who came and then both carers were replaced by another who is a pleasant lady but not as enthusiastic or self-motivated, it would have been helpful to know that they had been replaced or to be informed when they
will return.

Reply from RK, Owner at Proper Home Care Ltd

Dear G, Thank you for your review. Due to an unforeseen situation we had to send a different care worker to avoid missed calls. We do try to allocate the calls to the same carer but sometimes, due to personal reasons, holiday, illness etc, it is not possible. I do apologize for any inconvenience caused. Best regards, Proper Home Care team.

I highly recommend this care agency to anyone looking to provide care for their loved ones. Communication with the owner has always been very positive. Staff are very polite and courteous. Having previously dealt with another care agency and having a bad experience, I wasn't sure what to expect when
I first approached them. But I am very pleased with the way things are done. It's very professional and I have confidence in recommending it to others.

Excellent service all round, staff are fantastic with you. Timekeeping is very good, the clients are really very happy with them, the way they were trained and the complete assistance they give to old and infirm clients. Removal of garments, washing, showering, drying and creaming etc. Redressing, treated
with dignity. Will make breakfast, dinner, tea-time and supper which is a complete help. Any job asked for them is not too big.

Well what can I say... this company do not care about your well being, just money. Most of the 'carers' do not know how to prepare a sandwich or toast let alone a meal, most are from abroad... cheap labour who haven't a clue what bread is! Believe me I've been there and lost weight through Proper Homecare,
they were always late for my am call with no apology, please ignore the promises on their website because it doesn't last! A male carer made a pass at me and nothing was done, he still works for them. Proper Homecare is far from proper as they are always, and I mean always, short staffed! Go with them but you've been warned.

Very caring and thorough. Very easy to talk to, nothing is too much trouble. We are really happy with everything we have asked for and experienced.
I was initially apprehensive about getting carers in for Dad, but my mind was soon put at rest. Dad looks forward to his visits. They offer support and
companionship.
Would definitely recommend.

Following a really stressful experience with the care agency I was using, we came across Proper Home Care and decided to call and see what they were all about. From the very first meeting, I felt relaxed and reassured by their ethos of what care should be. The service they provide is very professional,
always punctual, respectful and caring. Nothing is ever too much trouble and can be relied on to know what needs to be done. I was in a very bad place both physically and emotionally before I called Proper Home Care, but with their support, encouragement and kindness, I have been able to move forward and reclaim some normality in my life. It was definitely the best phone call I've made, and I urge anyone looking for an excellent care agency to pick up your phone and ring Proper Home Care; you won't be disappointed.

A full-on five-star service from the Proper team. At midday, on the day mom was discharged from hospital the Proper team were on site with full-on advice and care. Never late, a full service and care package was delivered with precision. Can’t fault the team and their commitment to the services they
provide. First class, top draw. Thank you Proper Home Care team.

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 4.302 for Proper Home Care Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (35 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (5 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 53 Ratings = 4.302

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Proper Home Care Ltd is based on 8 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 = 4.8

  • 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.
