Overall Experience

After two false starts with other care providers, we were finally allowed to select The Great Care Company. After the earlier delays, my wife was becoming more ill and from May 10th we were so lucky to have the care provided by The Great Care Company staff. Every member of staff has been unbelievable!

In my 86 years, I have never met such a kind, efficient and helpful team of people. The two staff who started our journey happened to be on shift on May 3rd when my wife passed away and were a great comfort to me, staying even when they had further calls to make.
I am in awe at the quality of the care my wife and I have received. Yes, they were caring for me too.
I feel that the secret lies in the company name. The Great Care Company. They certainly showed great care to us.
Thank you all very much is all I can say to them.

Reply from The Great Care Company, Care Consultant at The Great Care Company

The carers are lovely and really helpful. They all seem really happy and brighten up the day with their visits. Our family would be lost without them. It's the reassurance that you get from knowing that you can rely on them to attend and provide a really good quality care. We have been so impressed

and I know my father-in-law is really pleased with the care that is provided. We are always pleased to recommend The Great Care Company.

Our experience with the Great Care Company has been exemplary. The people who visit are lovely and nothing is ever too much for them to do. My father-in-law has received excellent care from each carer, saying quite often that they are kind, caring and professional. We are delighted by the service and

we would recommend them to anyone. Thank you.

Very pleased with the service. Since my elderly mum started to get visits, it has not only helped with the challenges of daily life but also with her general well-being. Not only do they help with daily chores, but they are always reliable, friendly and take time to chat. The friendly chats are as helpful

as the more practical help.

My brother and I would like to thank and recommend The Great Care Company in York. We never expected our mother to willingly accept the level of care required, but she did, enabling her to live out her life where she wanted to be - at home. The girls were wonderful, kind, caring and professional. They

always treated her with dignity and allowed the time to share a genuine interest in her life. Thank you again.

Reply from The Great Care Company, Care Consultant at The Great Care Company

Very happy with the service that my sister has received. The carers that visit are the same people each time which is really pleasing because consistency is really important to us. The service is vital to helping my sister remain independent and we are amazed by the empathy and attention that the carers

give. They are all wonderful people and we would be lost without them. Thank you!

Overall Experience

A fall and broken wrist led to us looking for a regular care service for our mother, after researching and contacting several providers we met with the Great Care Company. All contact and meetings were conducted in an easy to deal with and professional manner. Mum is not good with change so we were

anxious about starting home care for her as she can be stubborn and challenging, at times. We discussed this with the care company and they don’t push Mum to do things she doesn’t want to do, but they have achieved much more with her than any of us, as her children could have. The house is in a much cleaner condition, as is Mum! Now she is in the routine of having ‘visitors’ come and help her, it’s just become normal. It has also relieved some pressure on the family, juggling full-time jobs and childcare and living in another part of the country as we know someone is checking on her twice a day.

Reply from The Care Care Company, Care Consultant at The Great Care Company

Thank you for your lovely comments Liz, we're so pleased to be able to give you and your family the peace of mind that your mother is being well looked after and relieve the pressures you used to feel. We're very proud of the support we are able to offer and are so pleased when we receive such great feedback as a testament to this. Thanks once again.

Overall Experience

I have been very pleased with the quality of care provided for my parents over a difficult period. The two carers were competent, reliable and helpful. I am relieved that my father, in particular, felt comfortable with the care provided and that the carers quickly gained his trust. We would not hesitate

to use this company for further care. It was particularly good that their was just a team of two, with only very occasional substitution.

Reply from The Great Care Company, Care Consultant at The Great Care Company

Thank you for your lovely feedback Carrie. We're so pleased your parents were able to make the most of their support by building strong relationships with their consistent carers during their service. We know the whole team appreciate the positive feedback and we're grateful as ever for your words.

The support our family received from the Great Care Company was excellent and although they only supported my step father for a short time, it was truly appreciated. They are very kind, supportive, committed, caring and most importantly for us - trustworthy. We would recommend anyone to use them to

support their loved ones.

Overall Experience

I find the care team to be excellent, with no complaints. In particular. one lady needs a special mention; she is great with Dad and very caring. However, the only frustration I have is regarding payment - I just don't understand why you can't operate with a direct debit facility.

Reply from The Great Care Company, Care Consultant at The Great Care Company

We appreciate the time you have taken to leave your kind words for our team. We thank you for putting your trust in us to support your Dad. As a smaller company, the reason Direct Debit has not yet been an option is due to the cost incurred by this. We have chosen to put our investment into our service and our carers as a priority. However, we do appreciate your frustrations with this and assure you that it is in our plans to introduce Direct Debit as an option. Thank you once again for your feedback.

We find it really hard to visit my mother and we are really pleased that she has the support of all the staff at The Great Care Company in York. She loves the girls that come to see her and always talks about how she enjoys the meals they cook for her. We've noticed such a difference in her, she has

become so much happier since the carers have been visiting. Can't thank the team enough.

The Great Care Company have assisted me in looking after my mum in our home, over the past year. They have always treated my mum with respect and dignity and tried to lift her spirits and make her smile. Having had several care companies over the years, this company are by far and away, the best. Good

management and well trained, cheerful staff. A big thank you to all of them.

I would recommend the Great Care Company to everyone. They have encouraged my husband to speak, how to move safely and used both professionalism and kindness. After every visit, they ask if there is anything else I want doing. The company are supportive, on the end of a phone and adaptable to our needs.

The staff are aware of the complex medical needs and are updating things constantly.

Your care company was recommended to me when my father needed care - 4 times a day. He is very happy with his carers and very appreciative of all they do for him. It is such a weight off my shoulders and my brother's to know that he is being well-looked after and cared for and that he is happy and cheerful.

Overall Experience

In my line of work, I have come across a number of care providers, and I would comfortably say that The Great Care Company are one of the best I have seen. Their team from top to bottom are so caring. My friend had support with them for some time before she sadly passed away. She required a lot of support,

but the carers and management were always happy to go above and beyond for her, doing lots of extra things for her such as her shopping, keeping her company and collecting medications. They even provided free visits for some extra companionship for her which was welcomed. They were amazing throughout the whole pandemic too, keeping everyone informed and keeping everything going.

Reply from The Great Care Company, Care Consultant at The Great Care Company

Thank you for such a lovely review, Esther, it has brightened our day! We know that, from your work, you have come across a lot of home care providers and care homes, so we are really honoured that you think so highly of our team. We were really proud to have been able to support your friend to remain at home for as long as possible, and we were always happy to go 'above and beyond; it is in the nature of our team to do this, so it really wasn't any trouble. We are pleased that the free visits and extra companionship were of good use, and we are pleased that you were so satisfied with our support. Thank you again, Esther.

When living so far away from family, it is hard to keep up to date with how they are and how they are managing. This is why it is so useful to have a company like this go in and provide support. My cousin has had help from The Great Care Company for some time now, and they do a wonderful job. We understand

that they are caring and considerate, and very respectful. We would certainly recommend them.
