I was able to look at the providers being suggested by the NHS for my elderly Aunt when she came out of hospital.
I read the reviews and decided to express a preference for this provider. I am so glad that I did. My aunt flourished with their care, and pressure sores healed.
New Shepherd chose
a small team of 4 or 5 carers to provide the lunch break and personal care double ups, so my Aunt did not have to get to know (or try and remember) too many different faces and names. They also used that group to rotate the live in so that every 4 weeks, a new person from the group came to live in. Staying with someone 24/7 would become very wearing and lead to fraying of nerves all round, but their system meant the live in carer got a break, my aunt was looked after by someone she knew, and I didn't have to worry about hand overs etc
Digital care records mean I see updates on how my Aunt is being cared for, her mood, her pain, her food Highly recommend NCS.

After a terrible service from a previous care agency, Shepherds Care has been a breath of fresh air, not only has the care been excellent the communication between the carer and ourselves is great, every visit is logged on a really easy-to-use app, which the carer updates after every visit which is
reassuring, I would highly recommend shepherds care.

Delighted with the care I get from New Shepherd Care. They look after me very well. The staff are all lovely. Easy to talk to about any problems. Two of the carers saved my life, they said I needed to go to hospital, I had Sepsis and was very ill when I got to hospital.

The carers always greet nicely.
They are polite and abide to the needs of the patient. Five or six carers on rota, so they know the needs and routine of patient.
Very happy with the good service they provide.

I am very grateful for the outstanding care provided to my mother. She loves her carers as if they were her own daughters. They are not only extremely reliable but also compassionate and attentive to her every need. They go above and beyond to ensure her comfort, safety, and well-being. It's evident
that they genuinely care about her, and their kindness and professionalism have made such a positive difference in her life. I feel very reassured knowing that she's in such caring hands. I highly recommend their services to anyone in need of quality, dedicated care.

I have been very pleased with the care my husband has received. The carers were all very patient with him as he has Alzheimer's and could be difficult.
The carers always came on time, which was important for me.

The service is consistently very friendly and always on time, ensuring they finish within the scheduled timeframe. They are exceptionally friendly and helpful with disabled individuals, showing great understanding and consideration for their specific needs. The staff are easygoing and truly understand
what is required to support a disabled person. I highly recommend this agency.

For over 4 months now Shepherd Care have been assisting my husband with his personal care. The carers are kind, arrive on time and ask my husband what he needs support with. The carers are not rushing my husband, he always makes his own decision.
The carers would sit down and have a conversation with
him, then listen to him and interact with him, he does not feel isolated or being left alone. I always hear good feedback from my husband every time when the carers have been.

Since my mother needed homecare 6 months ago. New Shepard Care has been a godsend...punctual, professional and trustworthy. I couldn't ask for more and wouldn't use anyone else. I have had experience with other homecare providers, this team are head and shoulders above the rest.

Cannot praise them enough, they looked after my uncle with care and compassion, they took their time with him, giving him respect and dignity enabling him to stay in his own home in familiar surroundings, cooking his meals for him and even feeding him when that became hard for him, even looking after
his pet cat, can’t thank them enough.

The team from New Shepherd have been consistently caring, considerate, kind, respectful and punctual. In the last year, we have dealings with 3 different care companies and as a company, New Shepherd has been far and away the best. That includes the help and service from their office staff. When they
have offered 24-hour care that has indeed been provided by them all.

New Shepherd Care took care of my 96 year old mum for a couple of nights recently when she was confused and couldn’t be left alone. Mum does not speak English and we were worried she couldn’t cope with a stranger looking after her, but the carer was extremely kind and patient and somehow made her feel
at ease and comfortable. Many thanks to New Shepherd Care!

My mum had care from New Shepherd Care for a few weeks. She was terminally ill. I was impressed with all aspects. We had a visit the day before care started from the manager and team leader, where all details of her needs were taken and the care explained. The carers were lovely and so kind to Mum.
They always arrived on time and stayed until their allotted time was over.
We were invited by the manager to download an app to our phones, which we did, on it we could see reports of every visit Mum had straight after the visit, which was so helpful. I would highly recommend this care agency with no hesitation.

I was so relieved when we were introduced to New Shepherd Care they were amazing from start to finish. We needed night care for my dear father who had been diagnosed with terminal cancer. From the first meeting, the managers of the business to the care itself was very professional and efficient. The
carer was so kind and compassionate to my father which made him feel very comforted at night. The carer was always punctual and my father was her priority the minute she arrived. This all took the worry and stress away from me. I would not hesitate to recommend New Shepherd Care to anyone who needs care for a loved one. They are outstanding.

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

    The Average Rating of 4.791 for New Shepherd Care is calculated as follows: ( (117 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) + (5 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 129 Ratings = 4.791
