Review from Della R (Daughter of Client) published on 19 March 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The girls from Open Doors are an absolute godsend.
They have gone above and beyond for my father, they’re always on time, friendly, caring, have treated my father with respect and kindness.
No matter what he asks them to do, they will do it.
Before they go they always make he is well catered for after seeing to his personal needs and making sure he has everything in place with him. Food wise they will always encourage him to eat a healthy and balanced meal.
But honestly, I would highly recommend Open Doors to everyone who is looking for reliable, respectful, kind and caring staff.

I can’t thank them all enough for everything they have done to look after my father.

They were all very polite and presented as enjoying the time spent with me. The actual physical care was done in a very considerate manner, asking about your preferences etc. They were always on time apart from problems with traffic on a couple of occasions.

Review from Nigel J (Son of Client) published on 18 December 2023 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Carers are superb! Always friendly and caring and never late for any appointment. Was told that the move from private care to end-of-life care would be a shock as there would not be the time and conscientiousness devoted to my father that there was with private care. Open Doors Healthcare Services have been every bit as good as the private carers we had before, and I have no hesitation in recommending them.,

Professional, kind, caring and well presented carers who engage with the client. They have patience which is really important when dealing with the elderly and those with dementia.

Review from Carol G (Client / Service User) published on 9 October 2023 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Since my return from hospital after a fall in July when I broke my hip and arm, I have had a carer to help me with washing, dressing and making meals. I have found all the girls very pleasant and a smiling face first thing in the morning sets me up for the day. I am increasing in confidence with their help and encouragement and somebody to talk to is very good when you are on your own.

Review from Daphne L (Client / Service User) published on 4 October 2023 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

The help and care I received had been first class. As I am not on the internet or have access to email I have been assisted in contacting medical help. The care workers have not only helped me in ways I would expect but have made sure the home is safe and clean. The young care workers have been not only efficient but friendly and have made sure that different needs have been met on different days. Management staff have listened to any problems I have and made sure that everything is done to ensure I have all the help I need.

Review from Russell A (Son of Client) published on 27 September 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

The team provided first class care for my mother in her final days. It is not just what they did, but how they did it, always in a cheery manner and with thoughtfulness and consideration for my mother at all times. They always asked how she was, tried to lift her spirits, helped her look her best, including brushing her hair, and trying to make her as comfortable as possible.

We shall forever be grateful for the loving care provided by the team.

The only observation I would make is that, in advance of the care commencing, the management should share a list of items that the care team will need. This is not a criticism, but simply an observation that will avoid a last minute dash to the shop to support loved ones and the care teams.

Highly recommended.

Value for money box left empty as we didn't pay for the carers.
They were lovely people. Great rapport with both me and my partner, who was their client on end-of-life care.
Always on time, very efficient and nothing was too much trouble for them.
Not an easy job to do, but they did it with a smile.

A big thank you.

Review from James K (Son of Client) published on 17 May 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
A massive thank you to the team for your hard work while looking after our mum.
They were by our side from the moment my mother was discharged from hospital. The way they treated my mum and met her needs was incredible, which really took the edge off my siblings and myself, who helped with my mum's care.
They are an absolute asset to Open Doors, and I would highly recommend them to anyone considering using this amazing service.
I can’t imagine going through the past six weeks without them.
Thank you all.

With loads of love.

Review from M S (Son of Client) published on 30 November 2022 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

On the evening on October 20th 2022, my mother was discharged from the hospital to return to her home, and on the same evening, two members of staff from Healthcare Services made their first visit, and both my mother and the family found them to be respectful, polite and caring towards my mother straight away. Every visit after that was like the first, maintaining the same high standards. As a family, we can't praise the staff involved with my mother's care enough, The way they conducted themselves and their professional standards were exemplary, and because of this, my mother's physical and mental well-being, as well as her dignity was maintained right up to the day she was admitted into the local hospice. Thank you.

Review from Pauline S (Wife of Client) published on 17 October 2022 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
Very good care was given to my husband by two carers. When our main carer had a weekend break they sent the same relief carer that my husband was happy with. They were good time keepers, pleasant and respected our home. Very friendly. They would leave my husband's wash until lunch time if he was too ill in the morning.

I would recommend 100%
