We use Life Care Plus Hillingdon for my mother and now my father needs care so we use Life Care Plus Hillingdon. I would not hesitate in recommending Life Care Plus Hillingdon to anyone needing a care provider for themselves or a family member. Everyone I have dealt with, management are amazing. The
carers are kind and considerate to my mother and father's individual needs. If changes need to be made or care needs to be increased the management team have dealt with this quickly and efficiently.

We were first-time uses of the company and found them extremely supportive and truly caring. They were always prepared to help in any situation, even at short notice. The carers we had built a very good relationship with my father over a period of 18-months. I believe my father was looked after very
well by the team, which enabled me to work and complete my chores. On this note, my family and I would like to thank Life Care Plus for their excellent work.

Life Care Plus Hillingdon provides an excellent service. My mother has been receiving care at home from Life Care Plus Hillingdon for some years now. We are extremely pleased with the level of care she receives. I have been particularly impressed during the Covid-19 pandemic for the non stop care my
mother received. Management is excellent and helpful.

1) Initial meeting was made so easy and the manager explained exactly what they were going to do.
2) Best news first day was that I got full assistance to have a shower.
3) Evening, ready to put to bed. Legs washed and a small massage given by the carer. Excellent to go to sleep.
4) Carers are
very encouraging and have given me the willpower to walk down the stairs.
Overall, could not have asked for a better caring team.

Life Care plus are providing excellent care to my father-in-law. The organisation has been very flexible and patient whenever we have asked to change any requirements. They have always been happy to discuss our concerns and respond to our wishes.
All the carers have been brilliant in providing care
for my father-in-law and the support that he needs. It has been difficult for my father-in-law and mother-in-law to accept people into their homes as they are very independent but the carers have made it easier for them. The carers work hard to complete the tasks that they are set and still are able to have a chat and a laugh with my in-laws, which brightens their day. I would also like to say a thank you to the management team who have always been there for us and very quick at sorting out any queries. A real team effort. Thank you to you all.

I was lucky to find Life Care Plus Ltd they are very caring to my Mother-In-Law amazing at their job. May I say not only at their job but they treat my Mother-In-Law just like their family. They are very helpful in providing care, help with getting the appropriate equipment to make her life more bearable
and they come on time. Even her doctor commented on how good they are. The manager is excellent too.

The Life Care Plus team has provided excellent care for my elderly mother over the past 18 months and has been invaluable in helping her cope with deteriorating health during this period.
The staff are competent and caring, and also quick and effective in meeting changing requirements.

Our mum has been cared for by Life Care Plus Hillingdon carers/staff.
We have been lucky to have the same main carer for most of this time for Mum's daily personal care and respite care.
The carer is so professional yet kind and sensitive towards my mum.
Care manager always courteous and quick to
respond positively to any problems or issues that need to be sorted.

I have been very pleased with the quality of the care Dad gets from Life Care Plus. The carers are very quick to pick up on any problems and will inform us immediately. The carer has built up a nice rapport with Dad.

The principal is very professional, knowledgeable and most of all caring. He puts the well being of the client at the heart of the service, and he is personally hands-on rather than delegate to his team.
In terms of the carers who work for the company - our experience has been amazing. The carers come
on time as agreed and carry out the duties as agreed. But what is a bonus point, is that they are flexible to adjust to the needs of the client and will go out of their way to be helpful, which is useful both to the client and the close family.

We are pleased with the service provided by Life Care Plus. They provide care 4 times a day. The carers are respectful. We had a slight difficulty when care arranged over language, this was quickly resolved by the manager.

Mum was discharged from hospital at short notice and we had to quickly find a carer for her.
The company found us a 24 hour live-in carer at short notice, especially as it was coming up to the holiday season. They made sure that mum's needs were met in every way and always discussed the process with
me to ensure I was happy as well. The company owner would visit the house to check all was ok with both mum and the carer. They also put in a relief cover carer for two hours each day, and these ladies made sure Mum was safe at all times.


We shall shortly be having a different 24-hour carer, as the original lady is having a two-week break. We all met with the new prospective carer and mum was able to ask her questions so that she felt able to get along with somebody else living in her house.


Our hope is that one day, we are able to cut the hours of the carer and allow mum to live a bit more independently.
