Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother has had Spring Fountain for 12 months. The standard of care is as good now as it was at the very beginning. The manager leads from the front and is hands on. We are very comfortable with the team of carers. They are a ray of sunshine to my mum. My mum knows her time is limited but somehow
they bring light into her life.

From day one we have found the company to be dependable and caring. The manager makes sure that she familiarises herself with the client's needs and passes it on to the members of her staff who are keen to help my husband and myself to the best of their ability. They endeavour to arrive at the allotted
time and ring if there is a problem. They really do live up to their description of "carer".
Reply from Florence Garaba, Manager at Spring Fountain Private Ltd

Spring Fountains has been a shiny light in the dark for my family. They have been outstanding in every way in the five days they were with us. They became part of our family absolutely outstanding, dedicated, and hard workers. I don't know what we would've done without them they were like angels in
disguise. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. You're the nicest people. I know you deserve every credit you get. My husband had the best care ever and I'm very grateful for that thank you one and all.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I visited my friend on numerous occasions when her carer was present, also twice when another carer was present but can’t remember her name. They were making huge efforts to ensure my friend's bedroom was as homely, comfortable and full of memorabilia to help her in her struggles with dementia. Encouraging
her to go for walks and we even went to a dance class which they were very keen for my friend to do. Their obvious care and consideration was very genuine and impressive. I would have no hesitation for them to look after my family.

Manager presented well and with a nice persona. Her client is pleased with her input. We have only had the said company support us for last few days. To date, Client is pleased. Thank You. We will continue forward with a view that the client may need extra care as her health deteriorates. We hope from
the past few days' care, we continue in the same vein. As a Family we are pleased that Spring Foundation has given us a peace of mind that all is well after client's support in the evening.

Knowing what I now know of the manager, I would not recommend this service to anyone. She is underhanded and tells untruths regarding her clients.
There is no confidentiality in any way regarding her service.
Do not put yourself at risk with this company they are untrustworthy.
You have been warned!

Review from Gerard R (Client) published on 12 September 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Loss of care provision for 8 weeks, my wife had to cope, despite working full-time with own disabilities. Spring Fountain are a small family-run agency and took over from 1st week of June. The manager visited prior to 1st visit; she undertook 1st visit duties herself in order to ensure she fully understood
my individual care needs. Comprehensive care plan, specific to me agreed rather than usual brief generic one. Carers are conscientious, genuinely care. Engaging with cheerful manner. Manager even phoned leg ulcer clinic to ensure foot/leg care still sufficient, given recent foot ulcer and widespread infection. Also attend for 'domestic' visits. Spring Fountain are dependable, provide exceptional standard of care and hygiene, incorporate personal preferences regarding complex care. Refreshing change to usual franchise agencies. I look forward to their beaming smiles and cheerful entrance each day. You won't regret engaging them.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My husband was without care for 8 weeks. When Spring Fountain was awarded the contract for his care, the manager attended prior to starting the contract and took comprehensive notes to prepare a Care Plan for his care. She also came and did the care herself on the 1st day to make sure that she understood
his care needs fully. All of the staff are so polite and put us both at ease. I can now go to work knowing my husband's carers are taking really good care of him. Spring Fountain are the best company we have ever had. Nothing is too much trouble for them. The manager has even spoken to the District Nurse about the care they provide, which shows how conscientious they are. They note any changes and caught a wound early to prevent further infections. I would recommend Spring Fountain to anyone who requires care.

Unprofessional. Daily notes were not updated and went missing. Instructions on how to mobilise and transfer my mum from her neurological physio were ignored. My mum was not washed for a full week (during a heat wave). The manager was rude and ignored the confidentiality policy, which was broken to family
members. House was left untidy and dirty. The staff did not communicate well with my mum and rarely spoke. Overall a very badly run unprofessional set-up.

The care that my mum receives from Spring Fountain Carers is exceptional. Their focus is to care from the heart, and they not only demonstrate true professionalism in respecting Mum's wishes but they go the extra mile to provide companionship. I have noticed Mum's health and well-being improve, and
I have 100% peace of mind in knowing that she has the "gold standard" of care provided by Spring Fountain. Communication, privacy and trustworthiness are all outstanding.

Spring Fountain is by far the best caring company I have ever experienced. The compassion and professionalism shown are outstanding in every way. Previous to the care from Spring Fountain, I experience many infections, but since their consistent care, monitoring and daily bathing, I am in much better
health, both physically and mentally. The staff are so friendly; they never let you down and consistently go the extra mile to ensure my well-being at home.
