Blossoming Hearts cared for my Mum at home for over a year. The carers were generally excellent, they did all that was required, and some would really go the extra mile to help Mum and the family. Mum valued the time spent with the carers looking at old photos, listening to music, just chatting about
old times. Mum has now moved into a Care home.
Thank you Blossoming Hearts.

Lovely carers who were very kind and caring and treated mum with the upmost respect

Blossoming Hearts cared for my friend when she needed help with personal care. They were nothing but professional, knowledgeable and compassionate. They always turned up to calls at the agreed time and stayed the full hour even if they had finished the care, they would use the leftover time to sit and
chat with my friend which she loved. I would recommend Blossoming Hearts to anyone looking for home care.

Blossoming Hearts Care Agency has cared for my uncle for around three years and they have been nothing but exceptional in the care they have provided to my uncle. It has been reassuring for the whole family knowing that my uncle has carers that he can rely on and support him with his needs. His carers
have been excellent and nothing is too much trouble. I feel they have really taken their time to understand and cater to my uncle's needs. We have really noticed my uncle's mood improve and him become more himself again and for that, I am truly grateful for the team. I also cannot fault the management, the manager has often come out to visit my uncle at no extra cost and has been proactive with providing additional support to suit changes to my uncle's needs. Overall, a very professional and most importantly, caring company that I would highly recommend to anybody needing care.

I have had to contact Blossoming Hearts management regarding the way my mother is being spoken to. Carers seem to spend a lot of time on their phones and not engaging in any conversations. There is a lack of compassion from some (not all) carers that rock up.

Reply from Lorraine Jenkins, Managing Director at Blossoming Hearts Care Agency Ltd

Thank you for taking the time to review our company, we always welcome feedback and look to take any points in a positive way to feedback to our team. We are surprised by your review with some points concerning contacting management regarding the way your mother has been spoken to. No member of the management team has had any contact concerning this matter but we will look into your comments. Concerning mobile phones, as previously, we have explained to a family member the company's app is on the mobile phones for notes, pictures, medication etc. We look forward to continuing the care for your mother as we have for the past eighteen months.

Wonderful caring company. Met the manager and worked out a plan for the care needs of my father.
The staff have been amazing, very helpful, always on time, polite and taking the time to actually talk to him, rather than seeing how fast they can do the job and go.
He gets on brilliantly and looks totally
different than before, a lot healthier. No concerns whatsoever with the company.
A very professional company indeed, and I would like anyone to consider the company itself rather than worrying about never knowing when or who turn up.

Wonderful service - genuine and reliable care.
The manager is highly proactive and communicative with family and any adjustments/increase in care is always catered for.
My parents have met the manager directly who made all efforts to understand my family's needs and a 'tailored' care approach has
been facilitated.
Delighted with this care provider.

I have only had care for two months and the service is excellent. When I rang up to see about having care, the care manager was excellent and came out to see me straight away. I can't fault my carer in any way because she is very good in her job and makes me feel at ease because I can't do certain things.
Without
this help, I would not be able to be in my home so I am really grateful to the care manager and carer.

I cannot thank Blossoming Hearts for all they have done for my father and mother. The staff go above and beyond. Without the quick thinking and actions of one member of staff, my mother wouldn't be with us now. After a brief hospital visit, there was no doubt what company we would have back into the
house to look after her again. Thank you.

I would highly recommend the care my friend received during a difficult time, the standard of care was outstanding, the staff were very professional in their approach and met all of my friend's needs. My friend was very happy after each visit and couldn’t wait for the next visit. I would highly recommend
this company to anyone that needs care or just companionship. I have always used Blossoming Hearts Care Agency when I need the care and companionship.

I have nothing but words of praise to say about Blossoming Hearts Care Agency. They are professional in all they have done for me for the past four years. I'm happy with the quality of care I receive. The care manager goes above and beyond her care of duty. I have had the same carer daily, she is a
great comfort to me and quality of her care is exceptionally very good. I look forward to seeing my carer as she lifts my spirit. I definitely would recommend them to anything that's looking for care or support. I would like to take this opportunity to say a special thank you to the care manager, I wouldn't know what to do without this company.

Blossoming Hearts have been looking after my mother twice a day for the last few months coming in the mornings to help her shower and get ready and in the evenings to help her get ready for bed. They have been very considerate and professional, reassuring Mum and providing reliable support for her.
They let me know of any concerns and it has enabled Mum to stay in her own home for longer than she would have been able to otherwise. I would definitely recommend them and thank the manager and her team for helping Mum and by extension us as a family.

We switched from the company we were using to Blossoming Hearts Care Agency Ltd to care for our mother who sadly had dementia and her little dog Willow. Mum sadly passed away at home in September, but the care, dignity and love were shown to mum at all times. We were so pleased to have had such caring
people, also the fact that she had the same carers, which was so important with mum and her dementia, as well as Willow, who would greet them with a wagging tail on every visit. Girls, I cannot thank you enough for all you have done for mum over the months, keeping her at home was the right thing for us, but we could not have done it without you.

My brother and I would like to thank the marvellous management and staff for the care provided to our mother during her progressive dementia and Parkinson's. Mum was a widow who lived alone, she passed away in January 2021 at home which is where she was always adamant she wanted to stay. Without these
people, this would not have been possible. They spent quality time with her, laughing and singing, occupying her, provided good appetising meals, taking care of her appearance [painting her nails!] and personal hygiene, helped with doctors/hospital and chiropody appointments and medical equipment needed, called emergency services on our behalf when needed. The paramedics on more than one occasion praised their comprehensive paperwork which made their job so much easier. Mum's face lit up when we spoke of 'the girls' and when they arrived each day. As she was gently slipping away the girls were with her holding her hand until my brother arrived from work, compassionate and caring as always. Thank you.

Blossoming Hearts began caring for my son in December 2019. We really appreciate the fact that my son sees the same carers daily who are familiar with his needs. My son trusts and respects their professional and friendly attitude. The carers are observant and report any change or concern they have about
my son's condition. They have been, and I am confident they will continue to be, consistent in their excellent care. I would highly recommend Blossoming Hearts.

My dad was looked after by Blossoming Hearts from January 2019 - January 2021. His care was excellent. He has Alzheimer’s disease restricting him more as time went on. The decision to go for care home 24-hour care came with great reluctance to myself and my family. Without Blossoming Hearts, I could
not have looked after him myself over the last two years. The managing Director was professional and always there with emotional help and support and I felt that I could trust her completely. Any concerns I had, however small, were dealt with swiftly. Dad's face lit up when he saw his main carer arrive. She made him smile and even sing and he thought the world of her. We think of her as a friend. If residential care had not become a necessity I would have happily increased the visits to his home by Blossoming Hearts. I am extremely grateful for everything they did and recommend them wholeheartedly to all who will listen.

We cannot thank the managing director and her employees enough for the professional care they gave to my father-in-law when he came home for palliative care. Their support and commitment was exceptional, the level of professionalism was outstanding. Not only caring for my father-in-law the ladies were
also a tower of strength and support to us as family when we were struggling emotionally. They certainly went above and beyond the call of duty. We will be forever grateful. Thank you.
