Review from S G (Daughter of Client) published on 9 August 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We are so pleased with the care given to our mum, not only the support they give physically but also the emotional care Mum needs. Their visits never feel rushed and if needed they stay on to make sure their client is settled. Their daily reports really keep us in the loop and raise any concerns. We
are really pleased with how they care.
Reply from Charlotte Clark, Registered Manager at Guardian Angel Carers - Berkshire & South Oxfordshire

Thank you so much for the feedback! Our ultimate goal is to care for your mum with respect and dignity and support her family.

Attentive and understanding, providing essential care, meals and companionship during respite needs. Friendly staff, administrative and carer experience very good.
My elderly father looks forward to the visits and care from all involved.

Review from Avril V (Wife of Client) published on 21 July 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My husband found the carers to be friendly, respectful and efficient. He is happy for their support to continue and prefers to stay at home rather than go into a home for respite. The manager of the service responds quickly to any query.

Review from Sherry S (Client) published on 27 June 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have found it to be an excellent service so far. As somebody who requires help, it is top marks.
All of the carers are excellent. I don't know how you managed to find such caring people. All of them provide excellent quality of care. I find the manager very easy to get hold of via the office phone
and I find that level of communication very comforting.

Review from Ann M (Friend of Client) published on 24 May 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
If anything we made the mistake, not Guardian Angels.
We agreed to the same person providing nursing care (i.e.) changing a stoma bag and companionship. This did not work as the person having the care has dementia and therefore confused nursing with companionship.
Sadly, the companionship has been
removed until there is someone else available.
I found the notes on the app not to be helpful, especially regarding the food. The Guardian Angel would write what had been given to eat but we had no idea whether it was being eaten or not only to find most days it was just being put in the bin. If the notes could say I did not see her eat it would have been useful. This is just an observation.
Reply from Charlotte Clark, Registered Manager at Guardian Angel Carers - Berkshire & South Oxfordshire

Thank you for your review/feedback. We have now put some different carers in so hopefully they can build up a relationship with the client and can think about starting some companionship visits again.
As a company, the care notes are reviewed daily and I have spoken to the carers about making sure that everything is thoroughly documented in the notes. I hope that you have seen an improvement in the documentation. Please let us know if there is anything else we can do to help you and improve the service.

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 5.000 for Guardian Angel Carers - Berkshire & South Oxfordshire is calculated as follows: ( (120 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 120 Ratings = 5
