Review from Ross C (Client) published on 27 March 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My experience with this care company is very positive. I've been paralysed for 20 years, I'm 42 years old and throughout the 20 years, I have had many different care companies. I rate this company the highest on performance, being on time to get me up and dressed and ready for the day. Very friendly
carers and they are in the job for the right reason, which is to care and unlike some care companies I've been with and this not being the case, so I feel very fortunate to have this care company getting me up in the morning. They have not failed me where many companies have, they can have you laying in bed 4 hours and you don't know where the carers are, but with this care company, I have found this not to be the case. I've been with other care companies where I've been asked if I could go out for my own tea because they didn't have the carers to make my tea but not the case in this company. Very satisfied. I would highly recommend it to anybody.

Review from Paul R (Son of Client) published on 9 March 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Fantastic care given to my precious mam in her last few weeks. Really lovely, professional and down-to-earth staff. A special mention to the young lad who used to actually sit and talk to my mam, even though their workload was exceptionally heavy. Do not let him go, he's gold dust!
The majority of
staff were excellent to be fair.
Would definitely recommend KML Kare in your hour of need!
Thanks to all the staff.

Good to have a company that understands patients' needs and have experience. This company has been very professional and would recommend them after having a bad care company previous. The manager is very good at her job and will listen, I don't think you will be disappointed with this company.

Great carers who help my mam with her needs. Mam says her carers are always kind and happy to see her. Nothing is any trouble, they are always friendly on the phone and staff are happy to accommodate any changes to her routine.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Excellent high standard of care given to my father.
The staff are dedicated and, most of all, caring.
The staff team are outstanding in the service they deliver and their reliability.
Most of all, the family know my father is in safe hands.
My father loves the staff and no wonder, as they are always
positive and arrive with a smile on their faces.

The care team are amazing, don't know how I would manage without them. They are very friendly and looked after my mum incredibly well. The support I have had, especially from one member of the team in particular who helped me get overnight carers, is outstanding. Nothing is too much trouble. Thank you
so much for your care and for being there for me also.

Review from Stephen C (Husband of Client) published on 10 August 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My wife has MS and receives 4 domiciliary care visits per day from KML Kare. The support and assistance provided is excellent with dedicated and very competent carers. Visits are on time and thorough with flexibility when required, for example, two late visits when we were attending our daughter's wedding.
The carers have a good sense of humour and are familiar with the specifics of my wife's condition and demeanour. Communication with the company is also excellent and we are delighted to benefit from KML Kare's commitment, a truly excellent provider.

KML Kare looked after my father who had Motor Neurone Disease. My father received impeccable service from this company. Everyone who dealt with my father, who had extreme complex needs, was nothing but amazing. Carers made my father feel extremely comfortable, they were not only supportive of his needs
but also the support they gave us as a family was crucial at such a very difficult and scary time. All staff were extremely knowledgeable, patient and always made my father feel like he was important. We are so thankful and grateful to have had their care and support during this extremely difficult time and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this company.
