For myself, a willingness to chat a little if there is time, is almost as important as carrying out the chores I cannot do. Most are willing, if time allows, but not so much everyone.

Reply from Pamela Mabvira, Manager at Tapvim Care Services Ltd

The reason I've given 1 is because one carer was absolutely lovely and really cared for my mum. We've had a catalogue of errors from this company, from not locking mum's front door at night, to giving her a second dose of medication because they hadn't checked the comms board, set up for their use.
As if that wasn't bad enough the carers regular didn't work hours they were being paid for - on one occasion they stayed for 3 minutes of a half hour visit, which suggests to me that they had too many visits booked in their day & they had to play catch up when they could. Nonetheless mum was paying for her care and wasn't getting what she was paying for. They were always polite and pleasant to talk to but instead of engaging with mum on their visits some were more interested in their mobile phones. I appreciate they had to update mum's records on their phones but this wasn't just a case of them doing that. It is with regret that I'm writing this but their care standards weren't acceptable

Reply from Pamela Mabvira, Manager at Tapvim Care Services Ltd

Thank you for your feedback, and we're very sorry your experience didn't meet expectations. We understand how upsetting this must have been and take your concerns seriously.Regarding the medication error, there was a communication breakdown following a carer's car breakdown. We arranged another carer, though later than your mum's usual time. Advice from 111 and the GP was sought to ensure her safety. We agree this could have been managed better and sincerely apologise.Visit durations are a priority. Carers are given travel time, but delays from illness, emergencies, or traffic can impact timing. Still, clients must receive the care they pay for, and we are addressing this.We're truly sorry that, despite our efforts, the issues weren't resolved to your satisfaction. We're glad your mum is now supported by another provider and hope she is doing well.Thank you again for your feedback it helps us reflect, learn, and improve.

From day #one the care teams have been excellent, all working to the care plan and exceeding expectations. On the odd occasions when they were running late a telephone call told us of their problem and a time of expected arrival was given and kept.
I am unable to comment about the management or value

I not very happy with service my sister gets.
I carers are nice enough but there is a communication barrier.
Hygien of equipment isn't that great. Washing up with cold water! Everything is very rushed. My sister can't feed herself and feels they rush her most the time. They have no idea about English
meals, they have no training in simple meals like scrambled egg or omelette. Even making a sandwich can become a difficult task it seems. Some say they can do certain things because they have had a baby at some point in there lives. I'm sure the job centre wouldn't except that from anyone!

Reply from Pamela Mabvira, Manager at Tapvim Care Services Ltd

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.We would like to clarify that the points stated are not accurate. Your sister has expressed she is happy with the care she receives, as confirmed in a recent meeting with the Registered Manager.A review with the Social Worker and Occupational Therapy team was held to reassess her needs due to declining health. Additional time and specialist equipment are now being put in place to better support her.Regarding meals, at the start of care, it was agreed carers would assist only with feeding, while meal preparation remained the family's responsibility. Following the recent review, Social Services have allocated more time so carers can assist more fully with feeding.We continue to work closely with the multidisciplinary team to ensure your sister receives the support she needs. Please contact us if you feel further changes are needed, as we are committed to continuously improving the care we provide.

Friendly carers, always polite and have time to ask how we all are. Good service from them, only negative is they are finishing sometimes earlier than their time, sometimes 10-15 minutes earlier, other than that we are happy.

Thank you for your kind words and valuable feedback. We're so pleased to hear that our carers are friendly, polite.

I do find the carers friendly and very kind to my mum. My mum was reluctant to accept care initially but the team have made her feel more accepting. I like the fact she has a core team and doesn't have lots of different faces.
The communication between us all is good. My only suggestion is that they
wear their name badges as Mum can't remember their names.

Reply from Pamela Mabvira, Manager at Tapvim Care Services Ltd

Thank you so much for your lovely feedback.

It's great to know that the consistency of a core team and strong communication have made a positive difference. Thank you also for your helpful suggestion about name badges-we'll remind all carers to wear them so it's easier for your mum to remember who's who. We really appreciate your support and feedback.

The carers from Tapvim have been looking after my mum since she came out of hospital earlier this year. Initially I was very worried Mum would not accept help and someone going into her home but needn't have worried she has absolutely loved their help, chats and laughs together. Also I haven't had to
worry that Mum is safe, eating, taking her meds or just not lonely. That's all been made possible with the carers' positive attitude, caring and good communication. Even though I live 4 hours from Mum I've been able to relax knowing she's in good hands and I've always been kept informed if anything was needed. A massive thank you to a great team for everything you've done and all the best in the future on behalf of both me and my mum and the cat of course. Kind regards.

We used Tapvim Care Services when my Dad came home after breaking his hip. The care staff were lovely, and very respectful towards my Dad and the rest of the family. They'd often check on my mum who has dementia, which I found very kind. The company worked with us to find a schedule that worked for
all of us and I felt I could call and discuss any issues and that I was listened to. The only reason we stopped using Tapvim is that my Dad had to go into a care home as his needs were more than we could handle, but Tapvim totally understood and we would not have got through this period without them.

I find the care staff are very friendly and helpful towards my father-in-law and always make him feel comfortable. I would like to point out that I would like to have a fortnightly schedule of estimated visiting times of the carers to plan every meal around and also I never had any care information
provided that we are entitled to.
