LJ Sure Mercies provided excellent home care support to my mother in her own home. They were responsive and quick to come out to do an assessment, and then flexible with changes, increasing and decreasing the number of visits as required. The carers were professional , reliable and prompt, and patient
with my mother, who valued their support hugely as it meant she could remain at home for many months.
Reply from Linda Moffatt, Registered Manager at LJ Sure Mercies CareI am glad to know that LJ Sure Mercies provided your mother with excellent home care support. Thank you so much for your kind words to the team.

I reached out to LJ Sure Mercies Care on a recommendation from a friend. I was seeking urgent care for my elderly neighbour. The team came out that evening to meet us and agreed to start the next day. I immediately felt reassured by their calm professionalism, kindness and commitment to do the best
for my neighbour. Communication and collaboration have been fast and easy. Everyone is friendly and positive. They're making a huge difference to the well-being of my neighbour and building a trusting relationship which is keeping her safe and proactively anticipating her needs.

I was not at all keen on having carers, in fact, I was very unhappy about the idea but the team won me over on the first visit! They have improved my life by no end. They are polite and caring and I know they are good people. I recommend them to anyone who is worried about personal care, they are just
brilliant!

LJ Sure Mercies Care looked after my elderly neighbours for 18 months. They were reliable, always turning up at the correct time each day, very friendly and treated them both with care and dignity. The staff also used their initiative, getting on with what they could see needed to be done, were very
knowledgeable about care and the care system and gave excellent advice. They were flexbible to happily attend additionally on a very few occasions when extra help was required. We are very thankful that our neighbours found such excellent carers.

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.894 for LJ Sure Mercies Care is calculated as follows: ( (59 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 66 Ratings = 4.894
