We have used Melody Care for the last two years since Mum was diagnosed with dementia. We have now entered a new phase with Mum now having end of life care following a metastatic cancer diagnosis.
I can't speak highly enough of the excellent care being provided from carers who really DO care, not
just for Mum but also looking out for me, as the main supporter of mother.
They have dealt with social services on my behalf and that's taken quite a bit of stress away. They really are our friends and I can't thank them enough.

My Dad had secondary bone cancer and wanted to spend what little time he had left in his own home surrounded by family, which I believe was only made possible due to the Melody Care team. The hospital were trying to discharge him before a special bed had even been delivered, thankfully a manager from
Melody Care called the company and got it delivered the same day!
She organised a live in carer, extra daily visits to help move and clean him and even a waking night carer to help Dad cope with the night terrors he was having. She also liaised with the District nurses and a hospice care when required, all whilst keeping us updated 24/7 via the WhatsApp group she created for us.
It was made very clear that the team were always there for us which gave us peace of mind during a terrible situation.
When my Dad passed, the team came straight to his home, gave him a dignity wash and dressed him for us, they also spoke to him whilst doing it.
Thank you again for taking such great care of Dad.

I am impressed with the care shown to my mother. The carers take time with her and ensure her needs are met. They keep me informed about her care. They also take the time to chat with my father and address his concerns.

I am very happy with the service; the staff are all very caring. Melody Carers come four times per day; they are all lovely and helpful which makes me feel good. They do their best to rise to the challenge of staggering their visits evenly throughout the day. There is always a Duty Senior on call available
for any queries which is helpful.

Overall, I am happy with the service Melody Care provide. More importantly our mum is happy. She likes the carers and it seems they like mum.
The communication between us is good and I know if there are any concerns going forward, we would resolve them and that brings a sense of relief. They are the
support we need.

Really pleased with Dad's care.
All the staff are friendly, caring and helpful. My experience, from walking in the office to asking for advice to the care my dad received has been nothing but positive.
I would definitely recommend using Melody Care.

I could sing about how amazing the carers are. They don't only just do their job, but they really do give some love and really listen to our loved ones. My grandparents, who are deaf, kept messaging me about how carers are so keen on learning sign languages so they can communicate with my grandparents
and to include them. They really do adore the carers and felt like they were their friends. The staff also made sure I was included. They set up WhatsApp so we could all communicate together. Of course, we all get little delays and a bit of waiting times, but the team have always been responsive and always done their job brilliantly. They really deserve some praise and kindness from everyone and I would definitely recommend Melody Care to whoever I know that may need carers.

Having experience as you go, learning to care for your spouse is very debilitating. Melody Care Home have helped me tremendously in their full support. They are local, trained carers. Have the passion for their job and support you with your spouse in coming to terms with their dementia. I congratulate
them on their dedication.

Melody Care helped care for my mum who had a rare type of dementia that literally took everything a person should be able to do for themselves from her.
They treated her with love, dignity and respect. All the staff went the extra mile and always with a smile. We don't know how we would have coped
without them. They were also brilliant with my dad as he was mum's 24-hour 7-day carer and made the several daily visits to mum and dad's, enjoyable and helpful rather than intrusive. They even spoiled the family dog with the odd treat!
We would highly recommend Melody Care in Aldershot for anyone's care needs.

Pleasant and friendly staff adhere to PPE, always chat to me and my wife and treat her with respect. Timings and tasks are adhered to but weekly sheets do not tally to staff who arrive. We are very happy with the care and service we receive. Always helpful with queries or time swaps if they arrive.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Home Care Provider is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.790 for Melody Care Aldershot is calculated as follows: ( (51 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 62 Ratings = 4.79

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Melody Care Aldershot is based on 11 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 5

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Home Care Provider does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
