Formally known as TLC Homecare, Choices Homecare's motto is 'skilled care your way', which is a philosophy they look to bring to older and vulnerable adults throughout South and West Yorkshire. Choices Homecare are proud to support people to live in their own homes for longer and can provide a full range of homecare services. They offer a person centred approach to a wide range of care needs (offering support with: personal care, meal preparation, medication assistance, home respite/safety check visits or sitting services whilst family go out, assisting service users to go out into the community, shopping, light domestic help and more). They can also provide support to adults who suffer dementia or those with learning or other disabilities.

Their 'Values' are embedded throughout the Organisation to ensure they reflect their Vision (to deliver a service to be proud of), and that they are able to deliver the best quality of care that they can for all of their service users.

A strong focus on quality recruitment and training runs throughout Choices homecare and they are passionate about delivering safe, well planned services; care and support workers promote choice and independence to assist service users in remaining as independent as possible, whatever the situation. Outcome-focused services take account of client preferences and aspirations, with 'Choices' considering themselves as 'working in partnership with their service users' to deliver, quality services to each and every one.

Choice and independence is prioritised and clients are treated with the utmost compassion, dignity and respect.

We, as a family, are happy with most of the care our lovely Mum receives from TLC Homecare. We do, however, have a few issues. We feel that there are certain times when extra clients are added that the staff are rushing to cover the area needed. We also feel that the new staff are not trained enough.
There is no way that computer training is sufficient. We feel the last few new members we have had are unsure and safety has been a bit concerning, when rolling my mum. New starters need the support of your long-standing staff to get hands-on experience.

Reply from Elaine Bradley-Smith, Employee Engagement & Communications Officer at Choices Homecare (Rotherham North & Doncaster)

Thank you for your review, we appreciate your feedback as it helps us to improve our services in the future. We are pleased that you are happy with most of the care your Mum receives and understand how difficult it can be for vulnerable people when changes have to be made to their service, although we always support continuity of care wherever this is possible. We've been in touch since you completed your review and discussed the issues you mention with you. The staff member you referred to will attend further moving and handling training, please rest assured that this training has returned to the classroom environment as soon as it was possible, following more stability in relation to the coronavirus pandemic. We do realise the frustration that can result from any short notice changes to a service and are sorry if any inconvenience or upset has been caused due to circumstances beyond our control, throughout recent times. Please feel welcome to contact our office again, if needed.
