Review from Amanda M (Daughter of Client) published on 1 August 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum became ill after Christmas 2024. She became bed bound after returning home from a long stay in hospital, so relied on carers, friends and family to visit her. I knew of The Care Professionals personally and we enlisted their help for re-enablement purposes for my Mum. Mum spent time in and out
of hospital during the last months of her life but in the weeks that she was at home, she had several visits from The Care Professionals. She really looked forward to her visits and aswell as giving mum light exercise to do, mum enjoyed the social aspect of the visit more than the exercises. Heartfelt thanks go out to the staff for all your help.

I have no hesitation in recommending this amazing team of Carers. They provided professional, friendly support to my 94 year old Mum. They were always available and supported me with any questions, and reassured every step of the way with Mum' s care. Mum called her Carers her friends and quickly settled
into a routine looking forward to the next visit. I had peace of mind that Mum was receiving the best care possible. Thank you all so much.

The Care Professionals helped us look after my mother, in her own home, for over a year. Before writing this review, I read the other 5 star reviews posted on this website and our experience matched what those reviewers have written is such effusive terms. Well done Care Professionals, and thank you.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The manager has assembled a super team of reliable, professional and very caring staff who make daily evening visits (and 4 mornings per week) to see my 91-year-old Mum provide not only trained practical help with her personal care but also social and emotional support to allay her long-term anxiety
and other challenging Parkinson's Disease symptoms. The Team seems to have achieved the perfect balance that their name suggests, of top-class support professionally, respectfully and truly caringly delivered. We feel blessed to have them so involved in Mum's life. Thank You.

As I write this review, my eyes are filling up with tears, with the wonderful kindness, the wonderful care, and the wonderful heartwarming emotional support, as these absolute amazing ladies have filled my life with utter joy, as I gave a loved one that same loveliness as I am receiving now, because
my personal life now is just like a beautiful summer day, and this is how these kind ladies have changed it around completely, if only I could pull down the stars in summer sky for each of them, which I certainly would, as this is also how I am feeling now, which is just like a flower in bloom, because of the precious help and support from these incredible ladies, as they have transformed me, from how I was feeling then, to how I am now, as I will never be alone in my life ever again. So, thank you ladies for your lovely patience and understanding with me, as I can't rush around now, so once again, I thank you so much bless all of you, as you are all exceptionally professional.

Review from Penelope M (Daughter of Client) published on 18 November 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum was struggling with a shoulder injury and sciatica and needed help on a daily basis with lifting, hanging up washing, changing sheets and other similar jobs. Care Professionals came daily for half an hour and made a huge difference to her self-confidence. She has now recovered sufficiently not to
need them for the time being. However, she and her family are very happy to have found and met the empathetic, friendly, professional and 'can do' manager of the Care Professionals and her carefully selected team of 'ladies' because we now know where to turn when Mum finds herself needing more assistance in years to come. Mum is 89. Many thanks to all.

Having just recently started to have a carer to visit my mum, I was a little apprehensive. However, I didn't need to worry. Her care has been amazing. Her main carer is always happy and enters the house with a big smile and a warm greeting which puts my mum at ease. I cannot fault her! Thank you.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The Care Professionals were a godsend and helped us at very short notice. From the first meeting, the manager and her team provided an amazing service supporting our mother and the family. Coming from a nursing background, they are adept, kind, caring and extremely knowledgeable, which is reassuring.
Although sadly we only had their help for a short time, their level of professionalism is obvious and, we feel, a cut above the rest. We highly recommend The Care Professionals.

Care Professionals have been amazing and I cannot recommend them highly enough. They have been extremely professional, caring, compassionate and practical. They have been exceptional in caring for Dad's personal, social, and emotional needs from day one. They always have Dad's best interests at heart
and have taken the time to really get to know Dad. Thank you Care Professionals.

We have been so impressed with the manager and her team. Professional, approachable, and flexible from the start. The level of care and understanding they have demonstrated towards our dad has been outstanding. He has recently been widowed and they have supported his emotional needs along with his social
requirements. Would highly recommend this company and would be happy to give a more detailed reference to anyone that requires it. Another staff member must also be highlighted and commended for her individual attention to our dad.

The care professionals have simply been a lifesaver for my family looking after my late mother and now my father. If you expect the highest standards of care this is the company to use. Engaging, listening, caring and very professional with excellent leadership. It has been a challenging time for my
parents and the care professionals were there to support Mum and Dad. I highly recommend their service.

  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 11 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Home Care Provider is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.985 for The Care Professionals is calculated as follows: ( (65 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 66 Ratings = 4.985
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows: 3 points for the first Positive Review, 2 points in total for each of the next 9 Positive Reviews (1st = 3, 2nd = 0.5, 3rd = 0.5, 4th = 0.25, 5th = 0.25, 6th = 0.1, 7th = 0.1, 8th = 0.1, 9th = 0.1, 10th = 0.1)

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for The Care Professionals is based on 11 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 5
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Home Care Provider does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
