Mum began to struggle with looking after herself at home so we engaged with Unique to supply carers for her. The quality of staff and the care they gave to Mum was fabulous. It meant Mum could send an extra 12 months in her own house prior to moving to a care home.

Reply from Philip Maundrill, Director at Unique Senior Care | Coventry & Kenilworth

Thank you for sharing your experience. We're so pleased our carers could support your mum, allowing her to stay in her own home longer. I'll be sure to pass this feedback on.

Unique Senior Care has been providing care for my sister for 2-3 years now, and I am continually impressed by the standard of care and the personalised approach to care. The carers are all very well trained and very understanding of a complex health problem. The office staff are all accessible and
very helpful indeed. I have no hesitation in recommending Unique.

Unique provide an hour of care four days a week for my elderly mother. The carers provide practical support within the home and are willing to pop to the shops if needed. The carers are a breath of fresh air for my mother and brighten her day considerably! The staff in the Kenilworth office are friendly
and supportive and have been so willing to provide extra help and advice as my mother's needs have changed.

We started using Unique Senior Care in March 2023, initially to ease the burden on my 89 mother looking after her 94 year old husband at home in Kenilworth. We have gradually stepped up the care-visits as my father's health deteriorated, and were up to 4 hourly visits a day when he eventually passed
earlier this week.
I cannot thank Unique Senior Care enough for their service to us over the past 20 months. Without their help and support my parents would not have been able to continue living at home, with a remarkable quality of life for their age. We always found them flexible, responsive, reliable, compassionate and professional. They were always there to support us during the difficult times we faced. We found them to be huge support to us, and I can highly recommend them to anyone considering using their services.

Reply from Philip Maundrill, Director at Unique Senior Care | Coventry & Kenilworth

Thank you so much for your heartfelt review and for sharing your experience during such a difficult time. We're deeply sorry for your loss and are grateful that we could support your family in helping your parents remain at home together. It's wonderful to hear that our team was able to provide the care and compassion you needed throughout these challenging months. Your kind words about our flexibility, reliability, and professionalism mean a lot to us.

The team at Unique Senior Care stepped in extremely quickly when it became apparent the free care for my father on discharge (following a stroke and 3+ months in hospital) was not suitable or sufficient for my parent's needs. The carers and supervisors have been excellent. In my dad's case he requires
liquid feed via a pump, and the team were quickly trained and conversant in this set-up, which was a huge relief and help for me, as I was the only family member who could use the equipment on his discharge.
They also help my mum with other chores around the house such as bed changing, which is incredibly helpful. They always show kindness and compassion to my parents.

Reply from Philip Maundrill, Director at Unique Senior Care | Coventry & Kenilworth

Thanks for taking the time to share your experience, it's so good to hear of our additional training in practice and to know that our help is making such a positive impact not just for your father but yourself and mum too. I will share your lovely comments with the team!

Unique have been caring for Mum and Dad for about 6 months. They have been great providing regular visits and always with a smile. They ensure medication is taken, cook meals, help with personal care, clean and provide a chance to chat as well. When Dad was admitted to hospital and we made the decision
that it was time for Mum to move to a care home, Unique were brilliant giving us extra hours of cover to allow us time to visit care homes or just have a break for an hour or two. They are now supporting Dad at home since his discharge from hospital. The client diary they provide is a useful insight into how Mum and Dad are through a professional's eyes.

As soon as we needed extra hours for carers to come in, this was organised within a couple of days. Then when we needed the timing to change, this was arranged for the very next week. All the carers that go in to help are friendly and cheerful and willing to do any tasks that are asked of them. We can
rest assured that our parents are getting the best possible help available. We are extremely grateful to all the staff.

My mother has received service from Unique Senior Care for the past two weeks. We needed extra support in place for her at home due to her poor mobility and the fact that her short-term memory is now almost non-existent. She was struggling to manage everyday tasks and was getting more anxious. In the
short time that Unique Care has been coming into her, we have already noticed an improvement in her health and wellbeing. I live some way away from Mum and have also found it stressful trying to manage her care from afar. It is such a relief and reassuring for me to know that the caregivers arrive on time at the same time every day and provide a personalised service to my mum.
The service is provided with minimal fuss and has meant that when I visit my mum I can spend quality time with her rather than rushing around making sure that everything is in place.
Thank you to all involved in her care, so far so good!

My mother has been receiving care from Unique for several years now. The carers have always been very reliable, arriving on time and delivering a high standard of care. My mum really appreciates that she has two or three regular carers over the week so she is able to build a good relationship with them.
There is good liaison between the office/Mum/me which helps to reassure me that all is well with her.

We started using Unique Senior Care for my father when he came out of hospital, they would come and care for him daily, they were absolutely brilliant. Having the same team of 3/4 meant that he was able to build a relationship with his carers and his trust which was really important to us. The team
treated him with respect and dignity at all times and were very good at encouraging him to do some of the things Mum could not, he would always have a giggle with them.
Latterly, they provided superb care for my mother, which was an absolute lifeline to her. She thought of them more as friends. They certainly made the last few months of her life more comfortable and safe. The communication with the manager was excellent too.
We will always be grateful for the quality of care afforded to my parents and would definitely recommend to others.

You have confirmed, to anyone else reading this review, that the care and support are exactly as you wanted them to be. We involve a limited few caregivers who were able to focus on your father, by getting to know him and build up that important relationship with him. How nice that we were also able to step in again to provide the same service to your mum too. Thank you for entrusting us with their care - it has been an absolute privilege. Your comments will also be shared with the team. Thank you once again.

Recently, I had occasion to use the services of Unique Senior Care, following a hip replacement. I found the whole team, from management to carers, very helpful and respectful. The carers were always willing to perform every task that I required and were friendly and cheerful. Also, I found them to
be pretty punctual. All in all, I had a very good experience with Unique Senior Care and would certainly recommend the company.

Unique Senior Care have been helping our mother for just over two months now and we are pleased with how it is going. There were some changes in staffing in the first few weeks due to sickness but all carers have been kind and helpful and Mum seems to enjoy their company and support. Communication with

The care shown to my father is brilliant, the carers have got to know his individual wants and needs and respond to them. They recognise when he is needing reassurance from them and they put him at ease. The carers look after his needs the same as we do which is what you hope and want for your own.
I trust the carers and management 100% which gives me peace of mind.
