I was trying to contact Abbots Care, the social worker left me with the situation I had not been able to sort out. The social worker, whose client is a wheelchair user and below knee amputee. They want to start when he had a doctor's appointment for dressings and it's not just Abbots Care that won't
let him go to the doctor's appointment, it was also the social worker when the carers did not come. The social worker didn't sort out the problem when they were supposed to give out my phone number without letting me know they were going to call me. I wanted them to start on Monday. I was left to deal with it every time you try to talk to them. They don't understand any explanations and every time you try to explain the situation he needs to go to medical appointments, he is diabetic. They won't let him go and he cannot communicate with me either my brother, or with the carers to explain it. With Abbots Care anything with more than 5 words or syllables, they are clueless.

I found myself having to arrange live-in care for my elderly father at short notice. I wasn't sure where to start, so turned to Abbots Care, who had provided reablement care after a previous hospital discharge.
They quickly understood the situation and advised that live-in care for 2-3 weeks was the
best option and what the cost would be. The assessor came to the hospital the next day and within the next 2 days, they had found a lovely carer who could start on the day of discharge.
My father and his carer get on well together. She's caring, cheerful and respectful and within 24 hours I felt confident that my father was in good hands. We have decided to extend the care until my father's mobility improves.
Everyone at Abbots Care that I have spoken to, on the phone or face to face, has been helpful and supportive. Arranging care for a loved one can be very stressful and they have made the process stress-free. I also believe their fees are very competitive.

Reply from Vicki, Marketing Manager at Abbots Care Ltd (Hertfordshire)

Thank you for your kind review. It's heartwarming to know that we could support your family during a challenging time by meeting your father's needs and enabling his return home from the hospital. We always strive to match our clients with the most suitable live-in care workers because we understand how vital this is, not only for the client but also for their family.

Abbots responded very quickly to an urgent need for nighttime care for my mother - requested in the afternoon and in place that same night. Admin had to be a bit rushed but Abbots were very flexible and helpful in tying up loose ends subsequently. Mother also receiving 4 daytime visits following hospital
discharge. Nearly all the carers have been excellent and living up to the title of 'carer' - just one or two carers not quite reaching that level but Mum is always safe and looked after. Customer service was very good with helpful responses to our queries and comments. The app is very helpful - enables us to see the carers' reports after every visit and to see upcoming visits. All in all, we're very pleased with the service Abbots are providing and would recommend them.

Reply from Vicki, Marketing Assistant at Abbots Care Ltd (Hertfordshire)

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're delighted to hear that our service and care are meeting your expectations. Our team always strives to accommodate urgent requests to the best of our ability and we work closely with local authorities regarding hospital discharges to ensure that our clients can return home with the necessary care in place. It's also wonderful to know that you're finding the Care Circle app helpful. Our goal is to provide peace of mind for both clients and their families, so it's great to see it making a difference.

Very impressive service and addressed our ever-changing requirements with excellent efficiency. We even changed requirements twice in a week and Abbotts were very accommodating with no fuss or bother. Abbots are always responsive to calls, texts and email communications. Invoicing/payments are accurate.
There is an app to remotely check on daily visits as carers provide a brief and clear report after each visit. My mother likes the carers and often says how lovely they are. Excellent all-around care that I would recommend.

Abbots Care came out on the same day as a call asking for support, did an assessment and started up a package the same day. Carers were flexible and kind in working with Dad on getting used to having support and Abbots were brilliant when we had to alter the care when Dad went to hospital and then to
a care home. Despite lots of quick changes and only a short period of support, we were treated as valuable customers and the care about Dad's change in health was sincere. The App also helped the family to know who was coming and how he was which was so reassuring. I would use them again if needed.

I'm not at all surprised Abbotts Care received an "Excellent" CQC result. The Ferndown Team are just delightful, all are warm, caring, considerate interested in my mother, make thoughtful suggestions, are aware of small details that make a difference and are always happy, upbeat and enthusiastic even
singing as they enter her flat. I can see they are genuinely fond of mum and I can see a significant difference in my mother who now feels secure and relaxed, safe and content and looks forward to each and every visit. I too have been able to "let go" as I fully trust them to handle all aspects of her care in a professional and respectful manner.

Prompt and helpful response to enquiries and requests regarding home care for my stepfather. The carer's are kind, polite, patient and very good. Making contact with the company is easy and always reassuring - nothing is a problem eg a carer is available at very short notice if necessary or if sudden
changes need to be made. Worry and any anxiety is swept away by the helpful, calm staff.

Seeing me now compared to the state I was in a month ago, is testimony to the dedication, hard work, and expertise of your carers - they've in effect given me my life back and I'm very grateful to them - especially those who kept me going and gave me a positive attitude in hope in the early days. They
are too numerous to mention though 6 of them in particular stand out, apologies to all those I've missed out.

from Sharon F (Daughter of Client) published on 16 May 2024

This service is all about the money, not the client. My mother’s care has been shocking, she has been treated as a child. She is very intelligent and alert, but put to bed at 6.30pm and not got up until 9am. With pressure sores and diabetes, this is negligence. My mum has to eat at night to take her
diabetic medication and 14+ hours in bed is unacceptable.
Not once were her wishes or needs considered or listened to.
Every other country looks after their vulnerable and elderly people. Not Great Britain, it is all about how this service can make money. The care has gone out of this limited company, it is now just Abbots Care Ltd.
I thought that every care package was ‘person-centred care.’ This one is definitely not, it’s all about in and out in 15 minutes and then onto the next house.
A carer tried to show my daughter how to change the catheter bag and to dispense medication as they were short-staffed. You take on the contract, you should have a plan in place for staff absences. Shocking behaviour!

Reply from Abbots Care Marketing, Marketing Assistant at Abbots Care Ltd (Hertfordshire)

Thank you for your feedback, we are truly sorry and disappointed to hear that your experience with Abbots Care has not been at the standard expected. We are committed to resolving any issues our Clients have with our services and would like to discuss your concerns further. Our initial assumption is that your mother was on our re-enablement pathway where times of visits are non time specific, however we can review each package and if needed move to another pathway.

Left a shocking review on another platform a few months ago and, instead of improving their services or even having the decency to reply to my emails or countless phone calls (approximately 10 in 4 days) everything has gone downhill. My husband is a complex care individual but they keep sending in inexperienced
carers and domiciliaries with no training, no proactivity and not even basic common sense. One carer put soiled clothing in the tumble dryer instead of putting it into soak with disinfectant! Others have had the very basic training (3 days on video). So far, I believe we have had in at least 10 carers and more than 20 domiciliaries. After the last complaint, nothing was forthcoming in the promised 3 days and, even though I contacted Abbots direct to raise concern, I was given someone who should have been my point of contact who has neither had the decency to respond to my email of 5 days ago, nor my countless, time-wasting phone calls. An absolute disgrace to the ‘caring’ profession.

Reply from Abbots Care Marketing, Marketing Assistant at Abbots Care Ltd (Hertfordshire)

Thank you for your feedback regarding our care service. We would like to clarify and respectfully address your assertions. It's important to note, that we have indeed promptly addressed your concerns through our complaints process, ensuring appropriate actions to meet your husband's needs. Contrary to your statement our training is not a 3-day video programme. Our Care Workers undergoing a rigorous induction, including 5 days of classroom-based training and ongoing community-based onboarding. Competencies are assessed in real-world settings to ensure high quality care. We have actively participated in Multidisciplinary Team meetings to tailor your husband's care plans and manage your expectations. Therefore, we are disappointed by your review and have reached out to discuss further. Your feedback is valued, and we're committed to providing the highest standard of care.
