Life Care Plus is a nightmare due to incompetent and unprofessional management. The so-called "manager," is controlling, manipulative and completely unfit for her role. She ignores boundaries, lies, interferes and makes life difficult for families. Despite being told to stay out of my mum's care, she
continued meddling with no regard for us or the director's decision. As for the director, he is weak and incapable of running this company. He agreed to remove the manager but still let her dictate everything. They bring in untrained carers from abroad with little to no experience handling complex needs. Complaints are ignored, putting vulnerable clients at risk. I raised a serious complaint in October 2024, yet months later, they tried to send the same carer back, proving their lack of accountability. That said, a few dedicated carers work hard despite the manager and director's disgraceful leadership. They deserve praise. Life Care Plus is a mess do not trust them with your loved ones!

Reply from Rajenkumar Thakkar, Director at Life Care Plus-Home Care Services and Live in Care

Life Care Plus acknowledges the concerns raised by a client regarding their loved one's care. Despite the company's commitment to providing quality care and addressing challenges, the client's experience was unsatisfactory. The company values feedback and strives for improvement, but adheres to professional care plans to ensure safety. Issues arose when balancing specific demands with guidelines, particularly a request for a week-long shadowing period, which posed financial constraints. Despite efforts to accommodate, the family chose not to continue the care plan. We ensure all staff are trained according to the Care Act and company policy, with thorough inductions and shadowing by senior staff. Over two and a half years, the company faced challenges due to the family's demands and abusive behaviour toward Carers and Care Manager. Ultimately, due to ongoing issues, Life Care Plus issued a notice and ended the care arrangement. The company remains committed to providing excellent care.

Sadly our Grandmother passed away on 14/2/25. She was cared for by the team at Lifecare Plus and they done such a fantastic job! We lived with our grandmother and saw multiple carers everyday. They all have left such a mark on our lives, especially one member of staff in particular. Our children have
been so blessed to see such kindness and consideration shown towards their great nan from the carers and we are so grateful.

The carers of my son know what they are meant to do, and I am pleased with their work. They strictly do their work on time. Their only drawback is a lack of communication/interaction verbally with the service user or with the family, which is ok. They seem to concentrate only on their work - no sociability
interaction.

The company's manager and carers are very professional. Well-trained and very functional. Always do warm greetings, smiling face, happy to help, do things the way I want to, makes me happy. Sometimes I get emergency appointments due to my health condition, they always adjust the timings to make sure
they help me every day without missing any visits. The old company never did that and understood my needs. I rate this company and carers 10/10. Very happy with this company.

Fantastic service provided. Always on time without any issues - they work beyond boundaries. You ask and they deliver without any expectation. Comparing to other providers they are 100 times better.

I now look after myself midday and have fortified milk and soup. The carer leaves the ingredients for me, as my fingers don't work as well as they used to. I am also grateful for the way they will remember not to close the bathroom door really tightly or I have a difficult time opening it. When I have
a shower, the carer remembers how much a I feel the cold and has a very good way of keeping it brief so I do not get cold and they help me get warm again, as quickly as possible, by keeping the towels warm.

Very pleased with the Life Care Plus manager and the care service my mother receives. The carer who cares for my mother is really lovely and very caring. The manager arranges all palliative care for my mother which help me a lot as I am not aware about the process.
