We have been thrilled with the home care provided to my Mum and her partner. From the first contact, to the assessment, to the matching process and then to the introduction of the carer. When I visited my Mum and her partner yesterday, I could instantly tell that they felt comfortable and supported by their carer. Their carer is quiet, unassuming, friendly, attentive and very kind! She is going above and beyond in caring for my family, and yet encouraging their independence. Thank you to you all

Independent People Homecare have provided live-in care to a family member for a number of years. We have received great service from the management and administrative team, and the care staff have been well-trained, respectful and considerate at all times. I would highly recommend the service to anyone who is considering live-in care.

We are very happy and the carer has become part of the family. Care is excellent & very thorough in all that is done. The carer is happy to cook and help us with all activities, so we feel very lucky to have the help.

I have been extremely grateful for the care, commitment and professionalism of Mum's carer, who has been with her now for 5 months. Mum's dementia is progressing week by week - at times rapidly - but the carer has adapted brilliantly to every change in Mum's behaviours and capabilities. It is incredibly reassuring to me to know that Mum is so well looked after every day, and it takes a big weight off my shoulders.

This review may not do the service the justice it deserves, but I shall try. We are only a few days in with my mums live in carer and I can already 'take a breath' Mum was bed blocking the local hospital whilst waiting for a rehab facility, but wanting desperately to come home after nearly 4 weeks in hospital. These wishes were granted when a plan was put in place for the carer to move In With her for 2 weeks. As I say we are only a few days in but already a lovely relationship has been built between the carer and my mum, and the contact with the organisers of this has been amazing. Caring for a loved one is a combination of sheer pride and exhaustion- with these few weeks we know that mum is going to be happy and safe in her own home- THANK YOU

I couldn't ask for a higher standard of care to be given to mum over the last few years. Despite being in the late stages of Alzheimer's disease, unable to communicate, bedbound and blind, she is treated with such tenderness and dignity which has allowed me to step back and become a daughter once more. The carers are well trained and compassionate, nothing is too much trouble, they respect her home and make her as comfortable as possible. Should any problems arise, they are taken seriously and dealt with immediately, which is reassuring. I would highly recommend Independent People Home-Care to anyone seeking live-in care for themselves or a loved one.

We organised live in care for our Mum who has vascular dementia. Her main carer is our Dad who has cared for her for many years with very few breaks. We had an excellent experience with the Care team and Coordinator/s who got to understand our Mum's needs and plan for Dad's respite break. They professionally matched the most suitable carer and through much planning for the 'live in' care week everything went very smoothly. We can't thank the team and carer enough for enabling the care package we planned.

Excellent customer service and any issues that have arisen have been dealt with straight away and all care staff are excellent and have enriched my clients life and provide a high standard of care the carer has settled very well as I use a combination of privately employed and care agency and the care agency spent time to ensure we had the right carer for my client and had experience with Cerebral Palsy and they support my client in all her activities and my client is very happy with all the staff that we have had from agency. Would highly recommend to anyone that is looking for live in care.

The two carers who came on holiday with us were great. Knowledgeable, friendly and hard working. They did everything we needed. They had peg experience and hoist experience. Would use this company again.

Independent People is a fantastic provider focused on the quality of support rather than expansion. I feel like an equal partner in my care. With Independent People, I have been able to build a reliable team of professional carers who are really committed to giving their best. It has been my best care situation for many years.

My good friend was cared for by live in carers from IP Homecare for the last 6 years of her life. The care they provided enabled her to remain in her own home, which she' loved with all its familiarity, despite advanced dementia. It took a few goes to find the right carers but the IPH staff were always responsive to my feedback and live in carers with the right skills set and approach to fit my friends needs were found. The carers we eventually had in place over the last 5 years, were well trained and knowledgeable and provided excellent, professional, personalised care. I know they made my friend feel cared for and even loved by them. Record keeping was detailed and daily. The office staff remained in regular close contact with the carer and myself, checking in with me by phone to ask if I had any concerns. I can't thank IPH enough for making the last few years of my friends life as good as it could be and enabling me to keep her in her own home.

Generally the standard of care has been very good, communication is always very good between me and the Care Company and making sure that I am comfortable and that I am aware should things have to be altered. I can do that. As a company Independent People understand the importance of finding the right carer For the right client which I appreciate.

The company have been very quick and efficient in finding the right carer for my mum. The carer is excellent and my mum loves her. My mum was hardly eating when we brought her home from the care home but the carer persevered and also thought of the idea of putting the protein powder prescribed by the doctor into her tea because she had refused it when it was just mixed with milk. Since then my mum has grown stronger and even got some of her appetite back. The carer encourages my mum to do her exercises and also spends a lot of time chatting to my mum.

Very pleased with the arrangement. The carer has settled in well. Seen a big improvement in mum after only 1 week. Hoping to be able to enjoy the outside in her wheelchair now weather has improved. Thank you

I have received support from the Independant People since July 2024 My situation is very complex, but the staff have learnt how to manage my needs They are kind and considerate at all times They allow me to make choice and take risk I have two support workers and they are both very different but they adapt to what I'm doing on a day-to-day basis I would recommend the Independant People for anyone to receive Support When I contact the office to speak to the managers, they are all also amenable and support me

We had a very good experience with the live-in carer who supported our mother on her discharge from hospital. Mum had been away from home for three months so coming back was a big adjustment and she was understandably anxious about how it would all go. However the Manager provided a reassuring presence and helped Mum feel more secure. The Manager dealt calmly with the couple of emergency situations when paramedics had to be called. Mum describes her as 'very reliable and efficient, friendly and sensible' as well as a good cook! We were all sorry to see her go but are looking forward to having her help out again soon.

I am acting for my client and have to say what a pleasure it was to deal with your company. I personally spoke to the Sales and Marketing Lead, she was very easy to talk to and extremely helpful. Her responses to my emails were very quick and efficient. She is, without a doubt, an asset to your company. I also had the pleasure of meeting another lady who is, again, an asset to your company.
