If I could give Anglian Care 10++++ stars I would.
My daughter who has cerebral palsy and wheelchair dependent, moved 150 miles to become local to us in Cambridgeshire. The move was massively influenced by how unhappy she was with her care company. (She has received personal care from agencies for
over 20 years.)
After she moved up, we spent a long time researching care companies who could do her preferred times and had the right attitude towards clients, particularly as my daughter has high anxiety levels.
I can honestly say that the change in my daughter since she has had Anglian Care is remarkable and I have shed several tears of gratitude that a company like this exists. My daughter has a great relationship with her carers and management and in her words - ‘I love each one of them’.
Thank you so much Anglian Care. You are all amazing. Grateful (and relieved) Mum of a happy client.

We have been very happy with the care provided to our mum. All the staff were friendly and spent time talking to Mum. The staff supported Mum to be as independent as possible in her own home. We all felt that Mum was well cared for which gave us peace of mind. I would recommend their service to anyone
looking for support for their loved one.

Anglian and their team of lovely carers looked after my parents for 8 months before they became too poorly to be at home and moved into a care home. They were kind, professional and always caring, respectful and considerate to our mum and dad. Highly recommend. Your loved ones will be very well looked
after.

Anglian Care and Domestic Support Services are the best care team by far. My mother, who lives with me, suffers from severe Alzheimer’s which can be very challenging. Finally, I have found a team who are knowledgeable in dementia, competent, trusting, and they really do care. It is a relief to be able
to leave my mother with the lovely ladies knowing that whatever behaviour challenges arise they are able to deal with it. Management have been very supportive, and proactive when I have needed help and advice. With the excellent organisation of the team we have never been let down. My thanks to Anglian Care and Domestic Support Services.

A big thank you to all the staff at Anglian Care for the special care and attention given to Mum on their daily visits to make sure that she has a hot lunch and a tea prepared for later in the day. We could not have chosen a better team to look after her.

The support we receive from Anglian Care and Domestic Support Services is always way above and beyond. I live a long way away from my friend who is receiving their care and what they provide to me is total peace of mind. Knowing that as soon as I contact them someone will be around to check on my friend
however busy they may be. It is a wonderful community service - a huge thank you to the entire lovely team that tirelessly work there.

Anglian Care have been looking after my Mum for several years and the care and support they provide is excellent. They monitor all her needs as well as making her comfortable and feel special. Very approachable, reassuring and always at the end of a phone should I need guidance. Well worth the money
for peace of mind, especially as I don’t live nearby. Thank you to all Mum’s carers for their kindness.

I would like to thank you all for the help, support, and care you gave my Mum in law over the past months while her health was deteriorating. Both carers and management were amazing! During the last week of Mum's life, the care they gave was so professional yet caring. They never rushed their visits
even though I am sure they must have been so busy with other clients. They helped and supported me as well with their cheerfulness and kindness. I really can't praise you all enough! I could go on and on, but I think I have got the message across! A big thank you.

Thank you Judy for your lovely review. It has been our pleasure to work alongside you, to give the care and support needed to your mother-in-law, and to be able to carry out her final wishes - to return to her own home for her final days.

Anglian Care have been attending to my elderly dad for about 2 years. One of the team has visited twice a day for wash/shower, change and ready for the day/bed as well as administering medication every day - they have never missed a beat. Each and every member of the team are professional and totally
competent in their work, yet friendly, charming and reassuring. The team members are all unique and different in their own style but all are totally committed to the job. I can not praise Anglian Care enough and would thoroughly recommend them to anyone.

Good service provided to my mum by a lovely bunch of ladies who offer a welcome, friendly face and chat each day as well as sorting her meal out. Really good value for money and have always found easy and good communication with office and manager too. Would recommend.

Anglian Care has been taking care of my mother since 2014 and is still currently supplying care. They have been very reliable, whenever there has been a problem they are always contactable. Their carers are well trained, friendly and my mother looks forward to their visits. Prior to Anglian Care, I
had another provider so by comparison Anglian Care has been an absolute dream well done.

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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.862 for Anglian Care and Domestic Support Services Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (114 Excellents x 5) + (14 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 130 Ratings = 4.862

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Anglian Care and Domestic Support Services Ltd is based on 22 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

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Home Care Provider does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
