Not reliable, fail to turn up on several occasions.


Poor communication with clients e.g. change the time of care but failed to inform the client.


The standard of care/carer very variable.


It's how quickly can we complete this task and move on to the next one. This is despite there being more

time left in the allocated period of care.

Reply from Gail Sykes, Managing Director at Burgundy Care Services Ltd

Thank you for your feedback, I am aware that due to the recent heavy snow and your rural location the care team have struggled to attend the call. I am speaking to the care team regarding how long they are at the call and if there are any other tasks that can be completed. We will contact you to discuss your concerns in more detail.

The carer is great with my mum. We have peace of mind that she is safe and her needs are met. The carer takes my mum out as well as spending time in the home environment.
The service is responsive to our care needs and they try to accommodate most requests.

Burgundy Care (Huddersfield) has provided care for my wife over the last 4 years - when Vascular Dementia slowly eroded her ability (physical and mental) to cope with everyday functions - toileting, washing, dealing with double incontinence and associated aids (not feeding, drink and washing soiled
clothes).


The carers' ages range from late teens to mid-50s, most of the latter being grandmas. Over the past 4 years, our carers have 'settled down' to regular attendance by the same 6-8 faces which has led to a well established and settled routine.


Time factor is not a major criteria, although their 4 daily visits are logged at 30 minutes each. They remain until the care needed has been delivered. Their use of equipment - sling, hoist, commode and reclining chair, is knowledgeable and caring.


Management is easily accessible, helpful and accommodating. I believe this care company provides good value for the fees paid.

My Mum and I could not wish for better compassionate and dedicated care, both for Mum at present and over the last year, for Dad until his recent death. When phoning, long distance, and asking how things are going or inquiring about a problem you have a friendly reassuring voice on the end of the phone
and know relatives are in good hands.

Thank you so much, it has been a pleasure looking after both your Mother and your Father.

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