After an awful experience, my elderly mother had with the Social Services provider we chose Belgrave Care and so glad we did!
Their services were fabulous and the genuine care this Team provided was second to none - my mother looked forward to their visits it was a pleasure to see - not like the previous
ones.
I would receive regular updates and calls if they were at all concerned and they would ask for my opinions too.
Nothing was ever too much trouble for Belgrave Care - the Team would often suggest ideas that could help her in any way to give her that extra bit of comfort all whilst keeping her own dignity.
When Mum passed I could tell these ladies were visibly upset and it just reinforced what a caring company this actually was and genuinely so - it was like second nature to them and I do mean all of them and yet completely professional. I wholeheartedly recommend Belgrave Care for your elderly loved ones. My sincere thanks to you all.

Thank you for your lovely words. I always say everyone is treated like family. My business is run on empathy, recruiting the right people, and having a strong supportive management team. We miss your mum, and she is often talked about amongst staff very fondly. I'm so glad you chose us to look after your her. I wish we had more time with her. Always here for you and your family if you ever need a chat.

Mum loves all the ladies that come to see her, they're always upbeat and have plenty to chat about. A member of staff calls every afternoon to tell her which lady will be coming the following morning and confirm the time.

Reply from Lorraine Kingham, Director at Belgrave Care

Thank you so much for your kind words. As I always say, we treat our customers as if they are our own family. We always like our customers to know who is coming and and what time, continuity is so important when having home care, this is what sets us apart.

Belgrave Care looked after my dad for the last six weeks of his life. He was extremely ill, bed-bound and barely able to speak.
The staff at Belgrave were incredibly kind and caring. They ensured that enough time was given to Dad's care. They always ensured he was comfortable, even at the very end.
I
would highly recommend them.
We have used another company and Belgrave was far superior.

Reply from Lorraine Kingham, Director at Belgrave Care

Thank you so much for the lovely review of the care we provided for your dad. When we first spoke about the care, I promised you that we would look after your dad and support you and your family. We talked about his needs and call times, which we kept to. I always do my best to recruit people with the same ethos as the office staff Belgrave Care is run on empathy care and support. It's hard to believe there are agencies that don't. It was a pleasure to support him and to make him as comfortable as possible always striving to keep his dignity. I am glad we delivered our promise to you and your family. Your dad is missed by our team.

On behalf of my family, I would like to thank the director and her team at Belgrave Care for looking after my dad. We appreciate Dad has not been easy to care for with his poor mobility and dementia but Belgrave Care have all met this challenge head-on, I've been really impressed by their professionalism,
caring attitude and help they provided for Dad. The director and team have really enriched his life and all put a smile back on his face.
He is a character and the 'best man I know' so finding the best care for him was of paramount importance. 
We also need to find someone to sing to him, the director, I'm sure he will continue singing and entertain people in his new home... maybe we could ask one of his favourite celebrities to visit?
Once again, thank you Belgrave for all you've done for Dad, you are a brilliant team and one I would definitely recommend.

Reply from Lorraine Kingham, Director at Belgrave Care

Thank you so much for your kind words. Your dad has been a big part of Belgrave Care, it doesn't seem the same without him but I'm sure the staff will want to visit him at his new home (including myself). The laughs we had along the way and not forgetting our duets, will always be fondly remembered. We wish him all the best, the new place sounds delightful. Keep in touch. I will let all the staff know where he is and how he's getting along. Thank you for choosing Belgrave Care to support your dad, your words mean a great deal to me. I always say, "we just do what comes naturally"... we support people as if they were our own family.

Belgrave Care is a wonderful care company. They are very caring and all of their staff do a wonderful job. I have been managing the care of my parents. I live a long way from my parents and two members of staff have been brilliant at helping me to do this from a distance. My dad loves going for his
walks with his carer and they have built up a fabulous relationship.

Reply from Lorraine Kingham, Director at Belgrave Care

Thank you so much for this " wonderful " review. Opening this care company nearly NINE years ago, I wanted to give a more personal experience. Taking on the right staff, empathy plays a big part in what we do... from the office to the field staff. I will pass on your sentiments to them both. We support people as if they were our own family.

Over the last 2 years, the manager and her experienced team at Belgrave Care have provided the highest standard of professional care and support to our elderly mum. Always efficient and easy to contact, their attitude to client care goes well beyond the boundaries of a routine business arrangement.
All staff members are friendly, efficient, trustworthy and respectful of being in Mum’s home. Above all, Belgrave ensures clients are treated in a friendly and efficient manner with personal safety a key feature of every home visit. Any health, welfare, or medication concerns are promptly reported to family members providing a great deal of reassurance throughout the day/evening. I have no hesitation in endorsing the outstanding standard of care provided by Belgrave Care and thank the management and their colleagues for all that they have done to help us to support Mum.

Reply from Lorraine Kingham, Director at Belgrave Care

Thank you so much for your kind words. I opened Belgrave Care 8 years ago, after working for corporate companies for over 25 years. I wanted to give quality service and support customers as if they where our own family, Empathy is so important, and going the extra mile just comes naturally to us. Your Mum is missed I miss the laughs and the conversations we used to have, myself and the staff will be visiting your Mum as she has been a big part of Belgrave care. Thank you again we wish her all the best.

Belgrave Care have been assisting my client for a few years now enabling her to stay in her own home. I find them to be very professional, friendly, caring and helpful. They are happy to provide additional support when required and notify me immediately if they have any concerns. They have enhanced
my client's life by arranging visits to see an old friend as well as arranging her visits to the GP, dentist and hairdressers.
Based on the care received by my client, I would not hesitate to recommend their services.

Reply from Lorraine Kingham, Director at Belgrave Care

Thank you for your lovely words. It is a pleasure to support this lovely lady, and we have built up a trusting relationship over the years. Making a difference no matter how small is so important, we look forward to arranging another visit before Xmas to meet her friend again. Continuity has also played a big part in her support.

Belgrave Care has given my father, now aged 100, good care for a few years now. Their staff have been excellent, and the company has been able to respond quickly as his needs have changed. We feel lucky to have found them.

Reply from Lorraine Kingham, Director at Belgrave Care

Thank you for your review. It's hard to believe your Dad is 100 years old, such a lovely gentleman. Having our support has enabled your father to stay in his lovely home surrounded by all his personal belongings. We look forward to continuing to support him as we have done for over three years.

My elderly mother has been using Belgrave Care for well over a year, and during this time, all members of the care team she has met have treated her with kindness and patience. In addition, the office team are always available for any questions or concerns. Without their help and support, my mother
wouldn't be able to live in her own home.

Reply from Lorraine Kingham, Director at Belgrave Care

Thank you for leaving a review. Your mother is a lovely lady. It's hard to believe she had her 100th birthday this year. With our support, she is still able to stay within the comfort of her own home and familiar surroundings - long may it continue.

We were very lucky indeed to find Belgrave Care, Chester when mum needed help with personal hygiene and getting dressed. Dad had been coping well but we all felt help was needed. All the staff are amazing, helpful, kind, and always willing to go that extra mile. We as a family have built up a really
good relationship with all the staff involved in Mum's care and would recommend this company to friends and family.

Reply from Lorraine Kingham, Director at Belgrave Care

Thank you so much for your kind words which I have passed on to the team. Having such great feedback is amazing, but as I always say we treat people as if they are family. Communication is so important and this is what sets us apart from other providers. Keeping customers informed of any changes, and any issues raised dealt with immediately, all this plus the exceptional staff we have at Belgrave Care take away any pressures or worries from customers and their families.

An extremely professional and caring company. Belgrave has not only provided an excellent service, but they have also provided my father with both sympathetic and loving care. I would not hesitate to recommend this company. They have given me and the family confidence that care can be caring and personable.
Great communication from all members of management and staff.

Thank you so much for your review of our services and support for your father. Since the start, it has been a pleasure to support him; as I always say, "we support our customers as if they were our own family". We enjoy the laughs and conversations along with providing his care. Communication is so important for all parties, which is why your father's support is working so well.

Happy to recommend Belgrave Care for the support given to my mum at home over a couple of years until her death.
They were easy to contact and agreeable to amending dates or the number of visits.
Staff were quick to communicate any issues or problems and even did unplanned return visits on occasions
when they deemed them necessary.

Thank you for your review, it was a pleasure to look after your mum we had some lovely chats about The Isle of Man and her family.

It's always a daunting task, trying to find a good home care service for a loved one when they need it. Fortunately we struck lucky first time in choosing Belgrave Care. From day one they provided an excellent service for my elderly father, for some 14 months, enabling him to retain his independence
in his own home longer than we might have expected. The staff were wonderful and the care and support that they provided for Dad was of a very high quality. Thank you to all the management and staff, very happy to recommend you.

Reply from Lorraine Kingham, Director at Belgrave Care

Thank you so much for your lovely words, as I said at the beginning we treat our customers as we would our own family, and our staff will always go that extra to make sure everything is just right for every individual we support. Attention to every little detail I feel is what sets us apart and also having a great management team to support our amazing staff benefits everyone. We will miss your father and hope you keep in touch to let us know how he is getting on.

There has been a very pleasing improvement in my aunt since the excellent care provided by Belgrave Care. She has dementia and it is great to see the improvement in her and she always tells me the carers are lovely people. It is very reassuring to know that these lovely people are there to help every
single day if I cannot get to visit her myself.

Reply from Lorraine Kingham, Director at Belgrave Care

Ladies who support my aunty are all friendly and help maintain her independence. They encourage her to make good choices with her meals. Good care is expensive but it gives peace of mind to anyone with vulnerable relatives who wish to remain living in their home.

Reply from Lorraine Kingham, Director at Belgrave Care

Thank you for letting us look after your aunty, she is a lovely lady and the staff enjoy their visits. We do try and keep our prices competitive and after analysing our competitor's rates, our prices are still much less. Paying our staff a higher rate also helps with the quality of the care we provide. We look forward to carrying on the support for your aunty and of course her lovely little cat.

The care from the staff that work for the company is excellent as is the compatibility of management. Any issues raised are dealt with in a timely manner. The company cares about its elderly clients and welfare and supports the families they deal with.
I always felt my mum-in-law was safe and her needs

The care we received from Belgrave was wonderful from the moment we first put our godmother in their hands. The carers treated her with respect and kindness. They offered support, not only in her home but their advice and communication was so valuable too. The office staff were efficient and effective
in keeping us informed of our godmother's needs and had a very warm approach and attitude. Nothing was too much trouble.

I would like to thank all the staff at Belgrave for the care and support they gave my father over the last 6 months. The management and office staff were readily available and any issues that arose were dealt with immediately. The carers were professional, had the right "caring " attitude and always
turned up. My father was quite a character. He could be forthright at times, but the staff always treated him with respect. I would certainly recommend Belgrave to anyone looking for a care company to help support themselves, a friend or a member of the family.

To allow my mother to keep her independence I had to arrange a package of care a couple of years ago. It was important that I found a provider whose staff were friendly, caring, professional and empathic to my mother's needs. I choose Belgrave Care and both my mother and I are delighted we did. I found
the director very approachable understanding and helpful when I had to quickly arrange for my mother's care package to be increased. I would highly recommend Belgrave Care.
