If you are looking for decent care don't use this company the management are appalling. Some of the carers are good and some have no idea how to deal with a dementia patient. My mum has been left unchanged from night before till I got home on a teatime she has late stage dementia so it isn't always
easy to handle her but they said they were well aware of this and could cope with her. If your looking for a good care company for someone with late dementia this isn't it.

Carers arriving late and unprofessional communications between mangers. My partner had this firm for five weeks. I cancelled them and went with someone else. We requested no male worker and one was sent anyway. Late arrivals and not informing us. Not trained or experienced enough to deal with my partner's
problems. I would not recommend using this firm from my experience.

Reply from Clare Thompson, Director at Home Link Care Services Ltd

Thank you for the review. We take the wellbeing of our service users very seriously. With regards to the lateness of our staff member on this single occasion, this was resolved with you and your partner after an internal investigation and written apology. As our care staff attends many other service users during the day, sometimes service users may require further essential assistance than we first predicted or planned for in their regular timeslot. With regards to leaving early, our staff were instructed to leave the site as all personal care work was completed. We provide trained care for people with dementia and Alzheimer's. We have never advertised or offered to provide specialised mental care for people who have more serious mental health conditions. In the case of your partner, they have a separate social worker who provides focused specialised care. We provided cleaning and personal care only. We are still waiting for your invoice payment for the month of service we provided.

My carers are a great bunch! They are always cheerful and willing to do anything I ask of them and we treat each other with respect. There have been some inaccuracies in the invoice system re cancelled calls, but this seems to be resolving now an accountant has joined the company.

My lovely mum sufferers from dementia. Myself and my family wish Mum to stay in her own home, we needed support to do this. Thanks to Your Choice 4 Care we have had wonderful support, some of the staff and management go above and beyond, helping to take care of not only her physical health but mental
health. During this pandemic, we could not have done without them, or indeed any time. If there is ever a worry, the communication is very fast and things are dealt with very quickly. The communication between them and myself is essential and they very kindly do this. When my mum is happy, I am and Your Choice 4 Care are a massive part of keeping her happy.

I needed to retain a care agency as my mother suffers from Dementia. As I live in London it is important that the agency staff were experienced with Dementia patients and their standard of service is extremely high. I have found this agency and its staff to be very professional, careful and to provide
an excellent service that I cannot fault - sometimes even doing a little bit extra as they clearly care about their role and responsibility.
