Ashbourne Quality Care have taken care of my Stepfather for a number of years now and throughout that time I have found their service to be exceptional. The carers who currently visit 4 times a day have always taken such good care of my Stepfather and are always professional and helpful. This consistently
high quality of service is also evident in the management of his care. There have been a number of times when I have had terrific support from the team in the office. Finally, I would be confident to recommend Ashbourne Quality Care to anyone who is looking for someone to help take care of their loved one.

Ashbourne Quality Care have been looking after our dad for a while and we are very pleased with the care he receives. They visit several times a day and get us informed of anything we need to know about and anything we ask of them is never too much trouble.

Reply from Diane Wilson, Manager at Ashbourne Quality Care Ltd

Thank you so much for your kind review. It is lovely to know that your Dad is happy with us and that you have some peace of mind knowing that he is being well looked after. We pride ourselves on working with the whole family unit to ensure everyone is happy.

The service Ashbourne Quality Care provides is excellent. They employ caring and compassionate carers.
Communicating with them is easy and they always try their hardest to adapt to the clients needs.
I would recommend them without reservation.

My wife has been receiving care (one call per day) for the last six years and is very satisfied with the care provided. All the girls are appropriately dressed, take all precautions such as face masks and gloves and treat her efficiently with care and respect. They have not missed a single day, even
during Covid. We would like to thank Ashbourne Quality Care for the service we have received from them since November 2018 and are sure they will continue the good work.

I've been meaning to write a review for some time now.
I can't thank Ashbourne Quality Care enough for the care and compassion they gave my nana.
Ashbourne Quality Care cared for my nana in the last few weeks of her life.
They were very kind and compassionate, they treated my nana with privacy and
dignity.
They were very supportive towards me and my family.
Thank you to you all.

Reply from Diane Wilson, Manager at Ashbourne Quality Care Ltd

Thank you so much for your lovely review. I know that your nana was very precious to you and we were honoured to be asked to provide her care for the last part of her life. I am so pleased that you were happy with us.

My mum needed home care help after she suffered a fall, but she also struggled with the use of her hands and found it very hard to dress herself or get her own meals, etc. I cannot praise the carers enough. They were absolutely amazing and took such good care of my mum until her passing away in July.
I am so grateful that Mum had the care that she received to make her life more bearable, plus she enjoyed their company.

Reply from Diane Wilson, Manager at Ashbourne Quality Care Ltd

Thank you for your heartfelt review. Our staff are thrilled to receive it. We were delighted that we were able to care for her before she passed. The staff all thought a lot about her, and they got to know her very well. We hope that your Mum got a lot out of our visits and that she got some comfort from them.

My father was very reluctant to have a care package however he has found the experience extremely positive. This is in no small part down to the quality of the care team at Ashbourne Quality Care. They have dealt with him with respect, patience and dignity and are all very kind. He enjoys the chats
as he is now housebound and wonders why he didn't agree to have home care sooner! I particularly appreciate the communication from the team, keeping me in the loop of any changing health conditions and issues. It is a welcome reassurance.

All the staff provided the highest level of care for my mum which enabled her to continue to live in her home, which she so desperately wanted to do. Her home became her world and the carers provided a level of personal care that is above and beyond their professional standards. They provided a human
and compassionate element to my mum's care even during the painful latter days. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Ashbourne Quality Care for the care of your elderly family.

Reply from Diane Wilson, Manager at Ashbourne Quality Care Ltd

Thank you so much for your lovely words. Our team will appreciate this so much.
As you know, our team loved your mum and were all very honoured to have looked after her. The latter days were difficult but we know that she wanted us there with her and we were very happy to be there for her. She was a very lovely lady and I know the staff miss her greatly.

I cannot thank this company enough, they have all been amazing with my father. The carers are so patient and go at his own pace. He feels so relaxed around each and every carer that attends to him and I feel relaxed knowing my dad is at ease, happy and comfortable. Amazing, thank you again.

Reply from Diane Wilson, Manager at Ashbourne Quality Care Ltd

Thank you so much for your lovely review of our company and staff. It is so nice to get such lovely words from our clients and their families. We will continue to provide wonderful care to your mum. I know the staff love her. Thank you once again from us all at Ashbourne Quality Care.

My mum has been receiving care from Ashbourne Quality Care since September 2022. Mum wasn't sure at first, being someone who valued her privacy and was worried about strangers coming into her home. How things changed! Within a very short time, Mum fell in love with all of the team who help support
her. They visit four times a day and treat her like a person not a job. She has vascular dementia and some days are better than others. The team are so thoughtful, show an interest in her and have such patience on difficult days. Piece of mind for me (I also have a great relationship with the team) and I know that I can call any time to discuss things I'm worried about. Cannot recommend it highly enough.

Reply from Diane Wilson, Manager at Ashbourne Quality Care Ltd

Thank you so much. I’m so pleased that your mum enjoys being with her carers. I know they enjoy being with her. No two days are the same but they always work through everything together with her. Your mum is a delight.

I find the carers that come to my elderly neighbour really caring to him in all cases, he is always neat and tidy and he enjoys most of the food that they tend to give him. He gets very lonely so they have a cheerful banter with him which he always enjoys and he always says they are all lovely, even
though he can't remember any of their names except the one gentleman that goes into him.

Thank you so much for your review. We are so pleased that the gentleman is happy with us. We will continue to do our very best for him.

Caring, competent, trustworthy, easy to communicate with. Everything one could ask of care providers (both the manager - and each individual carer). Excellent. Well done!

Ashbourne Quality Care have been looking after my dad for a year now. He has 2 visits per day and one of the carers takes him out around town in his wheelchair which he looks forward to. They were good at discussing his needs and suggested things that would be helpful as he has mobility issues. It is
a relief to know that dad is happy and well cared for as I live a few hours away. The staff are friendly and professional. They have been a great help and will go out of their way to make sure Dad's needs are met.

Ashbourne Quality Care provided 3 daily calls for mum, all the carers that came to Mum were so helpful and kind, nothing was too much trouble, and they were great too in alerting doctors, nurses, and the ambulance when needed. I can't recommend them highly enough. Thank you so much to you all.

Ashbourne Quality Care initially provided care for my mum and dad but after Dad's death provides care just for Mum now. They have been providing care for the last four years. They are an absolutely brilliant team, who I have got to know well. The staff always treat Mum with respect and dignity and
look after her as if she is their own lovely mum. They support both me and Mum through a brilliant care package at home and nothing is ever too much trouble. They always keep me fully informed of any changes or problems. Initially, Mum and Dad did not feel the need for carers but never looked back once the visits were in place. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Ashbourne Quality Care and could not imagine any other care company providing better care at home for Mum. Thank you so much Ashbourne Quality Care team - you are the best.

Thank you so much for your lovely review. It has always been a pleasure to look after your Mum (and your Dad when he was alive).

We will continue to give her the very best care that she so deserves and may she continue to flourish with us for a long time to come.
