Well all my carers were amazing, so kind and helpful. They couldn't do enough for me. I do miss then coming in, we had lots of laughs, which is good. Thank you so much for all your loving care.

Review from Claire P (Client) published on 23 June 2025 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
All carers extremely kind; they all have different ways of caring but after several visits it's easy to get into some sort of routine. They are very easy to chat to so there is no feeling of embarrassment. Office staff often seems to alter things after arrangements have been made for times of visits
that suit.
Reply from Pamela Ilie, Registered Manager at Delight Supported Living - Colchester

Thank you so much for your lovely feedback - we're really pleased to hear that you've found the carers kind, approachable, and easy to settle in with.

The service provides me with the help I need. Have asked for earlier morning visits but so far nothing available.
Reply from Olivia Hewitt, Care Coordinator at Delight Supported Living - Colchester

Thank you so much for your feedback; we are delighted to be providing care for your lovely wife. We are actively looking into providing earlier morning visits and will implement them as soon as we have the capacity to do so. Your support and patience mean the world to us!
