Good Companions is a fantastic Home Care Provider. The team is friendly, patient and extremely understanding to my parents' needs.
I feel reassured when I know they are making a visit and they always have my parents' best interests at heart.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Good companions team including an exceptional team leader are true carers, kind and respectful to my 92 year old father who now has early onset dementia. He found it difficult at first having to be looked after but the team made him feel like a member of the 'family' and they even enjoy his dry jokes!
They are efficient, helpful and totally reliable and you can be sure your loved one is in good hands. As I am located a distance away from my father I am able to feel he is well looked after and they are so very patient with him. He does not want to go into a home and good companions are making his wishes come true. thank-you all the team.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Good companions have cared for my grandmother for around 2 months now. I very rarely write reviews but I have been so impressed with the care granny has received I felt it was very much deserved. The company took away all the stress, dealt with all referrals and even liaised with her G.P. The team picked
up a uti and thanks to the carers swift action, granny was treated with antibiotics and this prevented her being admitted to hospital. Without good companions absolute care and compassion, there is no way she would be able to remain in her own home. I sincerely thank the staff and management for everything they do. I am so glad I found good companions, me and gran honestly don't know what we would do without you. We both thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Good companions came highly recommended from a number of sources that we researched before choosing a care provider for my mother. What we wanted was actual care, kindness, and efficiency and these have been consistently delivered from the outset by the team of carers. We wanted mum to be reenabled
as far as possible following hospitalisation and this has been achieved, although ongoing support will likely be needed into the future.

Thank you so much for your honest review, it has been a privilege to have been able to support your mum and we thank you also for allowing us to do this. kindness from all of the team here at GCs

The best care provider that is around. Provided the most exceptional 24/7 home care for my nan result in her last few months of being dignified and peaceful. My nan could not have been cared for any better.

I have been using Good Companions to provide cover for me to have respite time away from my caring role.
The service provided is always exactly what I ask for, the level of care and respect my husband receives means I don't have any worries about leaving him in their care whilst I am out.
I would
not hesitate to recommend them as a first rate all encompassing care company.

Review from Claire T (Daughter-in-law of Client) published on 7 January 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Good Companions have been amazing with mother-in-law and more recently as her needs increased, we (family) and they worked together to ensure care was safe and supportive. Communication is 5 stars. The app to have the care notes to hand is a reassuring, informative and comforting tool to have. All carers
are amazing and truly have time for the people they are supporting. Really do not know where we'd be without these lovely guys, especially in the last few weeks. Definitely do not give the impression that money is the first priority and each and every one of them should be proud of themselves. No other words but to say thank you.
Reply from Heidi Hayman, Managing director at Good Companions Spalding

Claire thank you it has been an absolute pleasure to work with such a loving family as yours, we shall miss you all for sure, but look forward to visiting in the new year.

Simply the best providers in the area, in all regards. Thoroughly recommended by me.
The manager's team are superb and are a great help and comfort to my dad and as a result, me too.
I'm delighted that the business continues to grow and grow.

So happy with all the care we received from Good Companions. They were so kind and caring and did everything they could and more to care for our dad. We couldn't have done it without them and will be forever grateful.

I’m thrilled to express my satisfaction with the home care extended to my mother for over a year now, who has dementia. The caregivers exhibited exceptional dedication and compassion, fostering a nurturing environment. Their profound knowledge in dementia care, combined with sincere kindness, markedly
enhanced my mother’s well-being. I am genuinely appreciative of the invaluable support they consistently offer. Moreover, their proactive assistance and unwavering support for me as the primary carer exceeded all expectations. I wholeheartedly recommend their services without reservation.

I can’t put into words how the carers supported my Dad and the family during an extremely difficult time. My Dad was terminally ill and everyone went above and beyond for us all. For example, the carers would ask my Dad his favourite meals and cook whatever he wanted from scratch. They also built a
great rapport with Dad and felt like almost one of the family. Can’t recommend enough and Dad’s last weeks were made as comfortable as possible. We have stayed in touch with some of the carers, as we will never forget what they have done for us.

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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.985 for Good Companions Spalding is calculated as follows: ( (64 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 65 Ratings = 4.985

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Good Companions Spalding is based on 11 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 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 5
