I have had an incredibly very positive experience with SureCare. Care and love are the frontline words. Thoughtful and friendly are also part of the service provision which makes it work on a more 'personal' basis without crossing boundaries as they all remain professional and clear in their observations
of their client's continuing, ongoing needs.
A pleasure to see their faces smiling when they come through my door. Thank you all, amazing!

What a remarkable care agency with completely compassionate and very reliable staff.
We managed to get my dad out of the hospital with their excellent help and assistance, and very prompt service and we are very grateful for them.
Nothing was too much trouble, I cannot recommend SureCare highly enough.
Thank you all, you've made a hugely positive difference to our family.

The care and dignity that the carers treat my mother with is second to none. My mother is a difficult patient but the way these carers work is excellent. Being a carer is a tremendously difficult and demanding job and this team deserve all credit due.

Surecare has provided excellent care for my mother for the past three years. During that time some of the carers have become so friendly to her that she really looked forward to seeing them. The carers were there four times a day and always made sure she was comfortable and didn't need any other help
before they left. They would always contact me by phone if they had any concerns. I can only thank them for their excellent service.

From the moment we needed care, the response was immediate, considered and timely. The staff were always friendly, caring, and patient with my partner.
SureCare has been life-changing (for the better!) and we would thoroughly recommend it to anyone needing help at home.

My friend has needed home care for a while and I've seen how lovely everyone is.
It's meant she doesn't need to go into a home. The office staff are always helpful. I know it's a hard job but my friend has no problems and sings very highly of the people who look after her.
The company looks after
its staff and it shows.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to other people. Even if you just need help once a week, or twice a day, I know they would be able to sort you out and often the same week as well!
You couldn't ask for more - thank you SureCare.

Such amazing support from team SureCare, who has coped brilliantly with my mum who has advanced dementia and can often be very tricky.
Very patient, kind and supportive. It has also helped me enormously to have some much-needed relief from supporting my mother.
Very highly recommended, I'm so lucky
to have their amazing carers in every day.

SureCare took over the care of my 100 year old mother and from the very first visit we were impressed by their professional outlook and friendly approach. All the carers that attended my mother were so friendly and patient with my mother, even singing happy birthday on her 101st birthday. I can't thank
them enough for their care and help for us with my mother and would give far more than five stars if I could. Thank you all at SureCare for your support and care up till my mother died.

Before we used SureCare, we were let down so many times by a new provider. You get what you pay for! If you need a reliable, kind and caring team give SureCare a call. Their staff are all fully trained and do regular update training and they are able to adapt quickly when our needs changed. Safe, effective
care, that's what I get and that's what I need. Thank you to all the lovely care staff, you do a great job. I really recommend them, as they are experienced and their business has been going for ages, so you know they are reliable and look after everyone so well. My aunty really looks forward to her carer coming in and feels so much better after they have been. It's the highlight of her day and they will do everything they can to make her comfortable and happy before they leave. We get everything we need from them. If we didn't use them I would be so worried about her, as we didn't have a great experience with other care companies locally.

In a word, SureCare are exceptional. They cared for my wife during her final year, right up until the day she passed. The carers she loved were with her during her final minutes. Honestly, I cannot begin to explain how amazing they have all been, the management are responsive and flexible and the carers
professional and caring! Thoroughly recommended, thank you to Team SureCare, we will forever be indebted to you for assisting our family.

SureCare Oxfordshire provided some of the care for my sister in the last six months of her life, contributing to her being able to live with comfort and a degree of happiness. I found the senior managers very responsive to feedback and requests; their flexibility and ongoing attention to any training
needs meant a lot. They were also able to arrange the rota so that my sister's favourite carers were with her as often as possible, this made such a difference to her and to her family.

I have nothing but praise for the Surecare team who looked after my father in the last 6 months of his life. They always treated him with dignity and respect, as expected, but went far beyond that. They made him smile, he had fun with many of them, and he felt that some of your team were almost like
relatives. They were kind, helpful, caring and thoroughly dedicated in everything they did for him. In addition, your team were kind to Dad's family too, always happy to chat and reassure us.
Sadly he passed away towards the end of July, but I am completely confident that SureCare made a big and beneficial difference to his quality of life.
Thank you all so, so much!

Team SureCare has been looking after my father for two years now. He has declined over this time, and they have catered for his changing needs at every stage, from daily visits and now live-in care.
The carers show a huge amount of dignity and respect whilst having fun and laughter with him. He enjoys
the carers visiting, and if I have any concerns or need to ask for changes to be made, the office staff are very helpful and always action requests promptly.
SureCare is amazing and has changed his life for the better; thank you!

We are so grateful to everyone at SureCare who was involved in looking after my father in the last three years of his life. The carers and staff were always so friendly and respectful of my father's needs. Sometimes we had to phone with extra requests, but the staff always found a way to sort things
out.
It was very much my father's wish to stay in his own home right to the end. This was only possible because of the dedication and kindness of his carers, many of whom had visited him for several years. It was so touching and comforting for us to see how carefully they looked after him in his last few weeks.
We are very happy to recommend the excellent service provided by SureCare.

From the very first call with SureCare, I was put at ease. Based outside of the UK, it has made it really difficult to set up care for my parents. All of their needs were met, and nothing was too much trouble. From management to carers, if I needed help or extra visits, they dropped everything and supported
us. Having old parents, I did worry about them accepting assistance at home, but the staff who were sent to them put them at ease and was very respectful of their age and needs. It was the hardest phone call I made, asking for help, but the best thing I have done. Thank you, SureCare; you are all amazing!

Wow. SureCare has been caring for my partner for the last few years.
Put simply - they have been amazing and incredible in every way. My partner struggles with dementia and is unable to do certain things, but the extraordinary care and support offered by SureCare allow him to live joyously and be
fulfilling day by day.
They ensure the chores are done, they ensure the routines are organised, and they ensure there is happiness in all of this. Thank you, team SureCare; I cannot recommend you highly enough!

My mother, sister and I have been very grateful to SureCare for providing excellent care in a variety of ways, both in and out of my mother's home.
Help with shopping, cleaning, sorting washing, ironing and making beds have been invaluable, and it has always been provided in a friendly manner.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.896)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.896) out of 10 for SureCare Oxfordshire is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 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 4.896 for SureCare Oxfordshire is calculated as follows: ( (97 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 106 Ratings = 4.896

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for SureCare Oxfordshire is based on 18 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.

Kim

Kim Johnson

Job Title: Operation's Manager

Joined: 2019

Kim was recruited to transform our business. Kim is an experienced care manager and has worked across the country managing multiple sites. She joined SureCare to stay closer to home and was keen to get stuck into driving an agency that puts the client first. Kim was charged with ensuring compliance was excellent and her diligence and attention to detail were rewarded within her first 6 months in charge with a great CQC inspection report.


Kim's working hard to ensure all of our team makes a real difference in people's lives. One example is when she found that a family needed some additional support. Kim met with the family and spent many hours with Social Workers to release extra funding to enable vital work to be spent on their home to make it a safe place to live. Later, she gave the family the confidence to go on a day trip to the seaside by hiring a minibus and care workers and taking them on her weekend off. The children and Mother had not been out of the house together for many years. It was a memorable experience for them all.


A great example of going the extra mile and leading by example. Kim's kept our Service Users and team safe and well during the pandemic and we are really lucky to have an expert in care leading our team.

Emillie Blackwell

Job Title: Compliance Manager

Joined: 2023

My first job was companionship care which I absolutely loved and knew that I wanted to stay in care from there, so then I applied to be a domiciliary carer and loved that even more, helping my clients daily made me feel so full.


When the opportunity at SureCare came up I thought that it was the perfect job for me as I am so passionate about care being delivered correctly and for our clients to be cared for and as happy and safe as they could possibly feel.


I am really enjoying this role, and have never felt so valued and appreciated in a place of work before.

Uzie

Uzie Paul-Ado

Job Title: Compliance Officer

Joined: 2023

Uzie joined SureCare in 2023 and has recently been promoted to be our Compliance Officer. She is of West African descent and has a background in HR and education, she is proud to bring that same compassion and dedication to her role in our team.


In her own words:
Joining the team as a carer, supporting clients one-on-one and gaining firsthand experience in their joys and challenges while providing person-centered care, all taught me the importance of trust, empathy, consistency and commitment of going over and beyond. I know that every small gesture—be it a comforting smile or a reassuring word/touch—contributes to a person’s sense of dignity and well-being.
Now, I draw on those experiences every day to ensure that our team upholds the highest standards of safety, respect, and quality in every aspect of our service.


My journey from carer to compliance reflects my commitment to creating an environment where clients feel secure and valued, and where carers have the support and training they need to excel.
I work closely with our team to monitor and refine our practices, making sure we are always meeting or exceeding regulatory standards while preserving our values - the commitment to supporting people through all stages of life's journey.


“At Surecare, compliance isn’t just about rules—it’s about trust.”


I believe that true compliance builds confidence, allowing families to know their loved ones are in safe, capable hands.


I consider it a huge privilege to support our clients and carers through both a heart for care and a passion for quality, which helps us deliver the safe and compassionate services our clients deserve.
