Hales Homecare Newcastle

Hales Group are the most unethical and unprofessional company and I very strongly advise against engaging their care services for anyone unwell or vulnerable. They do not properly train their homecare assistants, who lack empathy and kindness, basic knowledge of hygiene, safeguarding, time-keeping, confidentiality, personal care, or respect for the client. Carers were often late, refused to stay paid hours and were unfriendly and rude. After months and months, I finally made a complaint when a healthcare assistant nearly set fire to my property by accidentally turning on a kitchen hob and leaving a plastic plate over it, filling the flat with smoke. Their staff kept turning up with serious infections, despite my immune system being weak , and when I got sick their management tried to claim Sinusitis isn't infectious.

Similar to other reviews, management lied and made false allegations about me (despite their being cameras in my flat). They should not be allowed to exist as a company.
