Seren have provided care for my mum for the past 7-months. All the girls that see Mum have been and are fantastic, getting to know Mum, and meeting her different needs with care, grace and dignity.
Mum now looks to these ladies as friends and enjoys her time spent with them. She has also managed to
build a good relationship with them, not easy when you suffer from Alzheimer’s.
Seren girls tailor their time to make sure my mum is clean, happy and calm all with a smile and humour.
I cannot emphasise how grateful I am to Seren for allowing me more freedom while they take the strain of dealing with the day to day stresses of an Alzheimer's patient.
It took me a long time to decide whether carers would be helpful with Mum, as she is very particular with who she sees, but it’s the best thing we’ve done, thanks to Seren, and it’s a great team.
I have never had an issue with Seren, and they are always helpful and respectful if I ever have any queries.
Thank you!

The Seren's who look after my parents are an amazing team. They work together, sharing their expertise and compassion, learning together how best to meet the changing needs of my parents. They are professional and respectful whilst always having a sense of humour. Nothing seems too much for them and,
because of them, my parents live happily and safely in their own home. The Seren's are stars and angels all in one and, as a family, we are so grateful for this team of very special, gifted and warm-hearted people.

I would like to personally thank the care girls for all the support my mother received during a very difficult phase for us as a family. My mum became very poorly before Christmas, and the care and support we received from the girls was phenomenal. They went above and beyond to ensure Mum was safe and
well cared for. The reviewing officers were always at hand and did their utmost to meet all Mums perceived needs. Mum loves the girls calling and now refers to them as her “friends”. I regularly see them singing with her, and after not walking for several weeks now, even doing her version of the can-can. Her regular care girl has now moved on to pastures new, she will be dearly missed by Mum and me. However, her co-worker who is equally as fabulous is still on board, so I know the heartfelt care, empathy and compassion will still be given. It is so important to know excellent quality care is given to someone, who to us, is more precious than Gold. Thank you all, you are certainly Seren stars!

I would like to thank Seren for caring for my beloved friend, the carers are always pleasant and friendly.
Even during the pandemic, they have gone every day to support my friend when I have been unable to visit due to a local lockdown.

As with many companies the front line staff, in particular the carers, are excellent. Unfortunately, they are not supported by a robust management and admin team. Their communication skills are non-existent and their empathy towards issues that arise from their incompetency must be experienced to be
believed. If you care for someone with learning disabilities this is not the company for you.

Reply from Nick Pambianchi, Managing Director at Seren Support Services Ltd

Thank you for your review, we welcome all feedback so that we can balance this against our objectives.
In this case, it is reasonable to say that we as a service were forthcoming in stating that we believed the service your family member received was not suited to their needs, and we were not the most appropriate service. We encouraged you to seek alternative service provisions that specialised in supporting young adults with a learning disability. Your family member received a domiciliary home care service, which right now is under immense pressures due to the on-going pandemic and from the outset we kept communication between yourself and social services that the service needed a review.
The care teams are led by our management through regular support and training, so we do thank you for rating our service 5 stars.

Just wanted to wish all the staff at Seren a Very Happy and Healthy New Year, and to say how much we all appreciate the wonderful care that is given to my mother.
Everybody is just so lovely and caring. Not only to my Mam but also to my Dad which we are truly grateful.
The staff are like little
rays of sunshine that brighten up my parents day.
We couldn’t have wished for a better team!
Thank You from the bottom of our hearts.

All the different carers allocated to me have carried out their duties as per the care plan and some rather rushed.

My father has been receiving support from Seren Support Services for several months. The quality of care has been consistently good on occasions going "over and above" to ensure my father's needs are met.
The staff are friendly and patient and always carry out their caring and domestic duties well.
Thank you!

The carer that I have at this time I cannot give enough praise to. I am very satisfied with the care I receive and would recommend Seren Support as they make sure you are happy with your care.

I cannot express my thanks enough to the team of Seren homecare. They have brought me back to life with their total commitment in everything that they do. I have mixed emotions, I am pleased that I no longer need them, but I shall miss them.

Seren have been providing a service for my father for the last 5 months. During this time they have developed an excellent rapport with my Dad and myself. They are faultless in the service they provide. Nothing is too much of an effort for them. Prior to Seren and due to my location in relation to my
dad's location, Seren has given me peace of mind, always at the end of the phone. Thank you so much Seren. Your name is quite apt.

In our experience with this company, the girls that look after my mother seem, on the whole, excellent.
In the beginning, there was a lot of misunderstanding and no real continuity of care. As the time has gone the company, on the whole, has improved and management has started to listen when contacted
by myself or my father.

Carers are wonderful, mam loves the different faces and people to talk to though it is not always possible.
Please remind new carers that her commode needs to be by her bed.
Previously she has fallen. But overall care is great.
Thank you very much.

The care we have received is second to none. Mum has been treated with dignity and compassion at all times. Not only do the whole team look after mum they have also been a massive support to me for the last few months, keeping me going at low times. I really do not know how we would have coped without
them.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.723)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.723) out of 10 for Seren Support Services Ltd is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 42 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 41 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 4.723 for Seren Support Services Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (186 Excellents x 5) + (44 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) + (6 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 238 Ratings = 4.723

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows: 3 points for the first Positive Review, 2 points in total for each of the next 9 Positive Reviews (1st = 3, 2nd = 0.5, 3rd = 0.5, 4th = 0.25, 5th = 0.25, 6th = 0.1, 7th = 0.1, 8th = 0.1, 9th = 0.1, 10th = 0.1)

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Seren Support Services Ltd is based on 41 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.
