Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a heartfelt review.
We are truly honoured to have supported your Mum during such a difficult time, and it means a great deal to know that she was cared for with the dignity and respect she deserved. Supporting families through end-of-life care...
The care the client is receiving is good. A little gets lost in translation at times as client is deaf but all the team are very helpful. Without care the client would not be able to live alone .
A complete change of bedding once a week and light house work is now to be received if time constraints apply that will be a huge help, for that the family are very grateful. Without care the client could not wash or dress so Thankyou.
We are very pleased to hear that you are happy with the care being provided and that the team have been helpful and supportive. Your comments are greatly appreciated.
Thank you also for recognising the difference the care is making. We will share your lovely feedback with the care team.
The only issue I have is not being notified of changes to my rota. I have a 12 year old son and when I am bad he will answer the door and will go by the name on the rota, when it is changed and we are not told. This becomes a safety issues for my son.
Thank you for your feedback.
Im sorry you havent been notified when your rota has changed. We understand this can create a safety concern, especially if your son answers the door.

It is too early to say if they are value for money due to the short time we have been using them however they are of value as I cannot be there 24 hrs a day and I wish to remain her daughter not her carer.
Thank you very much for taking the time to share your feedback. We are delighted to hear that both you and your mother have been pleased with the service during the first few weeks. It's great to know that the initial introduction with the manager was helpful and that your queries were responded to...
My mother is very pleased with the care she's receiving for bathing and light domestic tasks once a week. She reports her carer is very respectful, thoughtful and capable and has put her mind at rest. When she was away, a colleague came and she too had the same skilful and respectful approach. This has been a big step for my mother who is very independent and was a little resistant to the idea of having carers. We are all very grateful.
Thank you very much for your kind feedback. We are delighted to hear that your mother is pleased with the support she is receiving. It means a great deal to us that she feels comfortable and respected, especially as we understand that accepting care can be a big step for someone who values their...

The actual carers are very good. Very professional friendly and cheerful. If I have a fault it would be with the management who don't seem to care about the pressure they are putting there staff through. The distance and routes between clients isn't taken into consideration and it will only be worse when the dark and wet weather comes upon us and the carers have to drive down winding dark country roads and have limited time in between calls
Thank you for your feedback and for recognising the professionalism and dedication of our carers - we're very proud of the work they do. We're sorry to hear your concerns about scheduling and travel routes. We do take the safety and wellbeing of our staff seriously, and your comments will be shared...

Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. We're delighted to hear that you've found our staff friendly, polite, and respectful towards the client. We always aim to make the process as simple as possible and to keep families fully informed, so it's wonderful to know this has been your experience.
Overall very happy with care. Please may I ask that when shoe laces are tied up they do a double knot. Also please when washing up don't run hot water away and use bowl. Also would it be possible to help with any cleaning and changing bed only if possible. Thank you.
Thank you so much for your kind words and for sharing your feedback. We're really pleased to hear that you're happy overall with the care being provided.We truly appreciate your helpful suggestions - we will ensure the team double knots shoelaces for safety and uses the bowl when washing up, rather...

Thank you so much for your kind words. We're delighted to hear that our caring team has been respectful and thorough in supporting your husband, especially honouring his privacy and dignity. It means a lot to us that he has fully accepted the help.
The Royal Care team attend to my father three times a day. He was very anxious having people come into his home but the kind and caring approach of the carers attending has quickly put him at ease. They balance the hygiene, medical needs of my father perfectly with the emotional needs, engaging in conversation and sharing a joke now and again which brings some joy to his difficult situation. I am grateful to their manager also who has communicated well with myself helping to tweak small issues to help make my father more comfortable and liaising with other professionals on my behalf when I am busy. I am very grateful to everyone at Royal Care for their attentive service and kind and caring manner.
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. We're really pleased to hear that our team has been able to put your father at ease and make him feel comfortable in his own home.

We only used Royal Care for a short time but they were immediately impactful and supported our father at a desperate time in his cancer journey. I would recommend their services and know other people that are happy with the service they provide. Thanks to the manager and her team.

I’m Abhishek Suresh Kumar, the Registered Manager for Royal Care Canterbury. I’ve been working with Royal Care since 2021, and I’m proud to be part of a service that puts people first. Royal Care is committed to providing safe, reliable and truly person-centred support at home, helping clients to stay independent with dignity and respect. I lead and support our care team through training, supervision and care planning, and I work closely with clients, families and healthcare professionals to make sure our care is always high quality and responsive to individual needs.
I have worked within the Care industry for 22 years in various different roles. I have worked my way up from being a carer to the nominated Individual. I have my NVQ5 and I am very passionate about delivering very high standards of care.
Royal Care was originally founded in Dover back in 2011 by Sreelatha Vijayan. Sree is a Registered Nurse and has been working in A&E, trauma centres and care homes for the last 20 years, and continues to do so.
