Very pleased with everything. The carer who comes to look after me was well matched to my needs and interests. Always on time and very pleasant company too. Extremely pleased with the company's communication, correspondence and admin too, though three are secondary really to the excellent care we have
received from our carer.

I find the carers efficient and they do all they can to help. They go beyond the call of duty. They are friendly and good company when they are here. All the staff if they ring are very good.

My husband has three regular waking night carers. They are all excellent and go that extra mile. They treat him with respect and have great patience. All dealings with the company have been positive. They are all trained well and I can always rely on them. When he is being difficult, they come in and
take over and calm him down.

Thank you for your review! We are thrilled that we can make a difference to you and your husband. I will let the care assistants know your feedback.

Truly dreadful service, several carers were totally unsuitable. Two spoke hardly any English. One had "issues with inappropriate touching" but was still sent on calls. Three did various amounts of damage to my property which the company would not put right, now I have finished with them and paid them
and today I've been threatened for non-payment. I never had a service agreement although it was promised in the post.

Reply from Tracy Ferreira, Registered Manager at Bright Dawn Home Care

Thank you for your review, we take reviews to heart to improve our services, however we feel in these circumstances we have dealt with each matter appropriately and did our best to provide the quality service we pride ourselves on. You declined cleaning staff and requested care assistants to clean. Our staff are complimented on their care and empathy, we endeavoured to meet your requirements, ultimately going through every member of staff available. The "inappropriate touching" was intended as supportive and caring to you when you were upset. We did investigate this matter and found no cause for concern. On the occasion where crockery was broken, it happened after the care assistant had left the property, so was not taken further. The harassment you refer to was a reminder for a late payment which arrived simultaneously on the same day as your payment. All of your signed documents were sent to you first class after you could not open the PDFs. We wish you all the best for the future.

My dad has been receiving care from Bright Dawn Home Care since he came out of hospital in February 2024. From the onset, they were efficient in understanding his needs and providing suitable care. A very different experience than that from a previous care agency. They have continued to be very accommodating
and efficient in meeting his needs, are always available for any queries and these are acted on promptly. All staff I have encountered have been professional and caring and continuity of care is at their forefront. I would have no hesitation in recommending Bright Dawn Home Care.

Reply from Phoebe Kerr, Marketing at Bright Dawn Home Care

I have used Bright Dawn Home Care in the past and I needed emergency care support two weeks ago for my house-bound mom. I had no hesitation in calling Bright Dawn first thing to ask for some support as my mom wasn't too well and I felt confident that the Bright Dawn team would be able to assist me.
No sooner had I called the office that I had arranged for the team to start visiting Mom the very next day which was at very short notice (Friday PM) asking for weekend support. As usual, the carer who turned up was extremely professional and extremely caring towards Mom which is exactly what you need in times of illness. I then had to call a few days later as Mom would have had to be admitted to the hospital if I hadn't had the support of Bright Dawn, this in itself makes me, the carer, feel extremely supported knowing that you have someone giving you support as Bright Dawn always do. I would thoroughly recommend Bright Dawn as they always give 100% and are always able to work around your needs.

Thank you so much for your review; we always strive to go above and beyond when it is safe to do so! We are here to support you as much as we support your mom. We're always at the end of the phone.

Good and reliable service. No problems. Always make contact if the carer is running late or has to be substituted. The cost is reasonable so represents good value for money. I feel they look after my wife’s needs.

The administration has become efficient and contact with the office is good. The groups of carers performed admirably.
I am not commenting on value for money point below as it is not really possible to do so without a number of companies with other providers to consider.

I was recommended to Bright Dawn by a friend who had used the care service for his mother and to date I have not been disappointed with the service they have given. The carer my mom has takes a genuine interest in both my mom's physical and social well-being. I know my mom was reluctant to have care
to start with as she is very independent, however, I feel she really appreciates the help she now has first thing in the morning. Bright Dawn make every effort to send the same carer whenever possible, however, there are occasions when there is a change, but they will always advise me of any changes in advance if this is possible, either online or by telephone.

Bright Dawn Home Care have been supporting my parents for many years, initially with a lower level of support, but building up over time to reflect their changing needs. They have always provided a professional, reliable and caring service which we totally rely on. Without their care and consistency,
my father would have been unable to remain in his own home. Would definitely recommend to others.

Carers from Bright Dawn helped my father in the mornings since March 2022. The standard of care and assistance was excellent throughout and hugely appreciated by my mother in particular. As well as excellent care, the administrative arrangements were always clear, communication regarding visit times
(consistent and on time) was excellent and it was easy to speak to someone in the office team when necessary. All in all an excellent service, thank you.

Thank you, Mark, for such a glowing review! We ensure this feedback is shared with our wonderful team of carers and in this case our office staff. It is of great encouragement to know that we have provided the level of care that exceeds expectations.

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

    The Average Rating of 4.485 for Bright Dawn Home Care is calculated as follows: ( (68 Excellents x 5) + (25 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (5 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 101 Ratings = 4.485
