W have been very pleased with the care and efficiency of Radfield. The carers are always cheerful and respectful. It does my husband good just to have their company every day. I am really grateful that the service continued, even though we both had covid and do hope no one was harmed through this.

Although my need for the services of Radfield Home Care was for a short period only (five and a half weeks), from the initial contact to the final days of care, I found the office staff and carers to be professional, caring, flexible and understanding of my needs. I would confidently use their service
again, should the need arise.

I wanted to thank Radfield Home Care (Wakefield and Dewsbury) for the huge support they gave to my self, my aunt and my uncle upon my uncle's recent discharge from hospital. On the previous occasion, he was discharged far too quickly but because we were able to access the support from Radfield this
time, his discharge was so much more safe and he and my aunt have consequently been able to enjoy his homecoming with the care and support of the carers.
Thank you to our two carers (but I'm sure there are far more of you who were involved!) It was wonderful to know that you were there to support us at a very stressful time and to know that my aunt and uncle are in safe hands with your wonderful carers.

Reply from Jackie Gillen, Owner/Director at Radfield Home Care Wakefield & Huddersfield

Thank you so much for your very kind review. I am delighted that we were able to support your aunt and uncle through the hospital discharge process and enable a smooth and safe transition back home for your uncle. I will ensure your feedback is shared with our wider team. With very best wishes.

It is difficult to leave a vulnerable family member in the care of strangers, to trust the care will be of the standard you would want. We can't praise Radfiedl enough - we trust them completely. The staff members are wonderful; they are genuinely caring and helpful and treat our family members with
such respect. They are also always on hand to help and support us too if needed. As we settled into a routine, any feedback given was dealt with promptly - amazing service.

My parents-in-law are absolutely delighted with the care provided by Radfield Home Care staff, and regardless of whether or not they are regular carers, they speak highly of the service they provide. They also appreciate that the staff are happy to chat and get to know them as individuals, as well as

Within the company's remit, there is nothing too much trouble to offer help with during the home care service and completed with great professionalism. My husband was looked after very well twice a day for several days giving us both an immense amount of security and peace of mind. An excellent care
provider. Thank you all at Radfield Home Care!

This is the third company that I have used for my partner and it is by far the best. The staff are always polite, friendly and efficient when I contact them and deal quickly with any requirements that we have. The care/support given to my partner is always given with respect and consideration. The company
do their best in trying times to maintain continuity in both carers and timings of visits.

My experience of Radfield Home Care has never been less than positive. The care staff live up to their description - carers. They are efficient with an always positive attitude to my wife and myself. They are respectful to my wife and myself in a friendly and not too formal attitude. My wife is in my
view in the best of care.

Very impressed with the care provided and organised arrangements. Very responsive and understanding. Very pleased we found Radfield, it's a weight off our minds.


In fairness, we haven't much to benchmark against, not having used a home care provider before. From day 1 though we have been pleased

with our interactions and have no complaints.

I have been with Radfield only since the 29th November 2021. I was immediately impressed by the efficient and cheerful disposition of the carers. There were a few teething troubles to begin with but these were sorted out very quickly. I would not hesitate in recommending the company to anyone.

Carers are found to be always caring and eager to please. Almost always punctual but sometimes have different work schedule to those supplied to the client. Clients' schedules are sometimes not received before a visit.

Reply from Jackie Gillen, Owner/Director at Radfield Home Care Wakefield & Huddersfield

Many thanks for your very kind review of our care services. I am pleased that our care professionals are caring and eager to please. I am sorry that sometimes the carer may change to the planned schedule, this happens when we have had a short notice absence. We do try to ring clients to make them aware of any changes, however, sometimes it's not always possible. I will ensure your feedback is passed onto our office team to look at what we can do to improve this. With very best wishes, Jackie.

My mother has Alzheimer's and has recently moved in with me. Earlier this year we both caught Covid. This revealed that we needed help.


My brother sourced Radfield. He was impressed with the management team who were extremely helpful. They were able to pick up after the emergency team left us.


Since

then the lovely ladies have called every morning to get mum up, washed, and dressed. Bless them they then tidy her bedroom and empty the commode.


They have all been polite, caring, and respectful to mum. She enjoys their visits immensely and looks forward to chatting with them.


I have nothing but praise for our lovely ladies. Having been a "Care Bear" myself in care homes and private homes I know how hard a job this is. They are always cheerful, always ready to chat and mum thinks of them as family.


She's happy, so we are happy and would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone else who needs help. They have certainly made our lives easier and much less stressful.


Thank you ladies

I have been receiving care from Radfield for almost a year now. Whilst there has been quite a high turnover of staff, I have always received good service from them. If I have needed to review my care call package they are helpful and obliging, even when I know the care sector is in crisis at the moment!
Staff receive good training and are willing to learn new skills to help the client.

I was very impressed with the caring and professional service provided by Radfield.
The initial interview ensured that they had a full understanding of Mum’s circumstances and her care needs.
The carers were lovely, kind and patient so Mum settled into the new routine very quickly. I would highly
recommend the service.

We have been absolutely delighted with the quality of care provided by Radfield for my father. The carers are very professional, helpful and kind. The administration is very efficient and the app is a wonderful idea. It means that I can check after each visit to get a professional opinion as to how
he is which is great for my peace of mind. With a reliable care system like Radfield, it means that Dad can stay in his own home and continue to live independently, which is what he wants to do.
