Such practical advice of lets get some fresh air, take a walk and dont let the anxiety build were solid and positive advice from the outset. Also very reassuring to say she will be in safe hands is a great comfort. I think your team will develop a great relationship with our Mam and be huge help in hopefully moving forwards.

My dad has Parkinson's Disease and dementia, Kensington have been assisting with his care since July and I can genuinely say they are a breath of fresh air. Previous care companies have been appalling, including their management, so to find carers and management that actually do a brilliant job has been a welcome relief. All of the staff treat my dad with the dignity and respect he deserves, which has helped take a huge pressure off myself. I would highly recommend Kensington especially if you have had a bad experience with other care companies. Thank you all!
Thank you Kerry for your kind words, its a pleasure looking after your dad, we are over the moon that you have piece of mind and that we have taken the pressure of you.
My mum doesn't seem to report any problems, if she's happy am happy.
Staff who visit could wear a uniform, would help for security reasons and looks more professional.

The care I receive is two visits each day to ensure that my medication is taken correctly as this can affect my health if it is not taken in the correct dosages and at the correct times. This normally happens without too many problems but there have been occasions where appointments have been missed or my regular carer has not been available.

Her professional journey includes working as an Assistant Social Worker, where she gained valuable experience supporting individuals and families to achieve positive outcomes and access the services they need. This role enabled her to develop a strong understanding of safeguarding, advocacy, and person-centred support.
Angela also held the position of Service Manager for High-Risk Children's Services, where she was responsible for overseeing complex care and safeguarding arrangements for vulnerable children and young people. This role required strong leadership, effective risk management, and close partnership working with families, health professionals, education providers, and local authorities to ensure positive outcomes for those in her care.
For more than seven years, Angela served as a Foster Carer, providing specialist care and support to children and young people with profound and complex learning disabilities. This highly rewarding role required exceptional patience, resilience, compassion, and a commitment to helping young people thrive in a safe and nurturing environment.
In addition, Angela worked as Deputy Manager of a service supporting adults aged 18 to 65 with profound learning disabilities and complex physical disabilities. In this role, she supported the delivery of high-quality, person-centred care, ensuring individuals were empowered to maximise their independence, achieve their goals, and enjoy the highest possible quality of life. Her experience in managing complex care needs has given her a deep understanding of the importance of dignity, inclusion, and tailored support.
