Premier Care stepped in at the last moment after we had to remove the previous carers due to poor quality of care. Wow, what a difference. From the first point of contact, all of the staff have been nothing but caring and thoughtful to us all. My friend really looked forward to seeing them each day,
as they not only looked after his needs in a professional manner but chatted to him and made him feel at ease. I have nothing but praise for Premier Care Services. Topnotch service and a reasonable price as well.

I cannot praise Premier Care Services enough. My mother, who was 99, had terminal cancer with only a few weeks to live. Her wish was to stay in her home (a purpose-built annexe next to our house) and not to die alone. To this end, we had to find a care service that would suit our needs. The staff at
Premier exceeded our expectations in all regards from the management to each individual carer. I owe them a great debt of gratitude for the diligence and compassion they showed in caring for my mother. Both the daycare which included preparing her meals, doing her shopping, cleaning her home and, latterly, providing overnight care was first class in every regard.
All the members of the family were impressed with the way they made my mother comfortable right up to - and including - the end.
Thank you Premier.

It was an absolute pleasure looking after your Mum, she was a very special lady and we all felt as though we had known her for years.
Thank you for your kind words, I will, of course, pass this on to all the staff that were involved with Mum's care.

My husband's nominated carer was superb. However he was feeling, she usually managed to give him a full body wash. Even though he might have refused a wash, in her subtle way she coaxed him and somehow got the job done. I usually left them alone for the wash but if near when she had finished, he was
always thanking her. On the odd days when he wasn't well and did not have a wash, she sat and chatted with him, holding his hand and comforting him. She was very caring and had a real fondness of him, which was truly reciprocated.


She was also such a support to me as well. When I was concerned, she would agree when I felt a doctor was needed to be called, or say that this was the usual course for events, therefore allaying my fears. I really don't know where I would have been without her. She needs the biggest thank you in the world.

I am more than satisfied with Premier Care Services. I find them reliable and regular at coming to me. I have them twice a day on each day, one hour mornings, 30 minutes in the evening. They are caring people.

Premier Care Services EG Ltd have been reliable, professional and caring in the care provided to my 91-year-old mother whose health has deteriorated over the past 12 months. As time goes on my mother's need for expert assistance will increase and I have no reservations about using Premier Care Services
to help meet her needs.
I would strongly recommend Premier Care Services to anyone needing professional home care.

Excellent care but wish we could know in advance roughly what time they are coming and who it is. I think they are short staffed.

Reply from John Young, Operations Director at Premier Care Services EG Ltd

Thank you for your kind words regarding the excellent care provided.


I would just like to say that Premier does not have set timings and this is always mentioned at the initial meeting, we always try our level best to attend as near to the requested times as possible and Premier does have a fifteen-minute window either side in case of emergencies. Premier Care has the right amount of staff to enable us to provide the quality care expected by our clients and is by no means short staffed.


Kindest Regards,
John Young.

My wife who is suffering the effects of Vascular Dementia returned home a few months ago, being unable do anything for herself, therefore Premier Care were engaged to provide the necessary care package to allow her to live at home. From the onset, their Management team were so considerate in making
sure each time of day the carers were to come suited me.
The carers themselves treat my wife as if they were caring for a family member in a very gentle and compassionate way, making sure she is clean, well dressed and comfortable, all the time encouraging her with conversation and laughter. They also care for myself, every morning asking if I am well, or have any problems. Rather than rush off they will sit and chat for a while.
Just recently it was necessary to request an additional visit each late afternoon. Without hesitation and within 24 hours Premier Care had provided the carer at the requested timed.
I would not hesitate in recommending Premier Care Services.

The service offered has been regular and professional. The nurses have all been friendly and helpful. I am 93 and cannot take much part in the care of my wife; she has advanced Alzheimer's, does not recognise me or respond to me.

Premier Care lived up to their name completely. They provided premier care. The carers were consistently attentive and kind, they performed tasks efficiently but not in a hurried way. Mum felt very comfortable with them as she got to know them - despite her memory problems - as the ladies were people
she could relate to. Premier ensured that there was only a small pool of ladies to help Mum even though they provided care up to three times a day. I trusted them completely. Their rates were competitive and billing accurate. My main reason for recommending Premier would be that communication was excellent. They called me regularly with updates and by the same token, I never felt that I was being a nuisance when I called them. A caring company, which demonstrated good, old-fashioned values - perfect for my elderly Mum.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 32 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 32 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

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 4.932 for Premier Care Services EG Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (178 Excellents x 5) + (13 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 191 Ratings = 4.932

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows: 3 points for the first Positive Review, 2 points in total for each of the next 9 Positive Reviews (1st = 3, 2nd = 0.5, 3rd = 0.5, 4th = 0.25, 5th = 0.25, 6th = 0.1, 7th = 0.1, 8th = 0.1, 9th = 0.1, 10th = 0.1)

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Premier Care Services EG Ltd is based on 32 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.
