Mum has had good care from kind and thoughtful people. The manager has been very helpful to me. They all help with advice as I have dealt with nothing like this before.

My father who is 81 moved back to the UK from Cyprus, he had stayed there for 16 years so you can tell it was such a big change for him.
At first, I called this company and got information but our dad said he didn’t want any help so had to cancel the meeting but the manager was so helpful and nothing
was a problem but in the end, our dad came round to having help and what can I say? They were fantastic, they are always on the end of the phone when I need help or to change days or times they happily change, and with myself not knowing which way to go they have also supported me which I can’t thank enough. They are reliable and I would highly recommend to others that need care for their loved ones as our dad enjoys the carers going round and always says how lovely they are and that makes us feel so much better knowing our dad is looked after so well. So I thank all that are involved for the amazing job you do.

From the outset, we have been both impressed and extremely grateful for the outstanding quality of care provided by Greenwood Homecare for my 94-year-old mother, who is registered blind, has mobility difficulties and finds difficulty with bathing, dressing and preparing meals for herself.
Regular checks
on her needs ensure that she is supported to do things she can do independently, whilst ensuring that support is ever present to help with tasks that can no longer manage.
When as recently, an emergency has arisen, the response from highly trained Greenwood Homecare Carers has also been outstanding in every respect.
From not knowing where to begin to look for the highest level of personal support for my mother at a time when we needed support as well, we have found this and more from the outstanding care and guidance provided by Greenwood Homecare.
Any other family looking for the ultimate in professional personal care should look no further than this outstanding company.

What a lovely review from Brian, whose mother we have been providing support for nearly a year now. It is pleasing to know that our carers are doing such a great job.

Very pleasant and helpful from point of contact. Initial visit to Mum's home was extremely helpful in reassuring Mum. Staff very caring providing companionship and checking that Mum had taken her medication and had a meal. Mum had the wish to stay in her own home and Greenwood's visits were an excellent
answer to her wishes. Many thanks to everyone involved.

My mother has Alzheimer's but is totally unaware of her condition or the level of care she needs. Greenwood understood this from the start which was very pleasing. All of the carers worked with this and supported mum without making her feel she was being taken over. Access to the login system was brilliant!
I don't live nearby to mum and this helped me to see how the visits had gone and this was very reassuring. Greenwood provides a highly professional and caring service. Can't recommend highly enough.

It was a pleasure providing care for this lady, and many thanks for your kind words. It is good to know that our software system, which provides remote access to carers visit notes came in handy.

All staff know you and are very caring. If a carer is going to be late the office always phones to tell you how long they will be before the carer will be with you. Have already recommended the service to other people and they are more than satisfied.

From the first contact, my daughter made to Greenwood Homecare, they came to my home and immediately arranged care/support after hip/joint surgery. The carers have always been on time and very pleasant.

The carer that I've been having was very pleasant, caring and attentive. This is the first time I've had one outside my usual carer (who I've had for years). She was very good at washing and drying me and also having to put my cream on me. From the first day she was very experienced as I thought
I would have to repeat what had to be done, so very happy with her work. Nice, easy going person and would recommend her and the company to anyone.

Reply from Nina Roe, Registered Manager at Greenwood Homecare (Peterborough and all surrounding villages)

It was a delight providing support to this lady who required some assistance at very short notice when her usual private carer had fallen ill. We were happy to provide personalised support with one of our experienced, highly trained and dedicated care team and it's great to hear such fantastic feedback about them.
