I am very happy with the care I am currently receiving. The carers are friendly and helpful. They always ask before doing tasks and ask if there is anything else they can do.

Reply from David, Senior Manager at CRC Care Ltd

Good on whole service though some issues with being too heavy with PC. Also not consistent with care staff as the carers here get moved to other areas so break down with the same carers. Happy overall with staff.

Reply from David, Senior Manager at CRC Care Ltd

Thank you for your feedback Shirley and glad that you're overall happy with the staff who attend to you. We will take the feedback on the consistency of care staff onboard and certainly work to improve this urgently! We do always endeavor to keep the same team of care staff to maintain consistency and level of Care/Support.

Since CRC took over my wife's care in August 2022 we have been very impressed with the level of care provided. The carers are very clean, tidy and exceptionally polite. Any negative issues which have arisen, and these have been few and far between, have been very promptly dealt with to our satisfaction
by the manager. Delighted to say we have built up a very good rapport with the team of carers in general.

My family have relied on CRC Care to care for my mother for a few years now. My family member has serious and complex needs that require a lot of care and support. It requires the carers to receive additional training to meet those needs.
We have experience of having other companies looking after
my family member before CRC. The care we received was not tailored to meet my family member's needs, it was rushed, it lacked care and understanding. With carers talking over my family member about other clients they had seen. Clearly just seen as a number.
I have never found that with CRC, my family member reports that she is happy with the carer's that attend. They are caring, compassionate, display great empathy and do their best to keep my family member's spirits up.

Most of the carers attend to my brother serving meals, helping with personal hygiene and light household tasks. They engage with him and spend the allocated time with him. I realise that there have been staffing shortages but it has been pointed out to me by a neighbour that some carers are just in
and out!

Reply from Catherine Longwe, Manager at CRC Care Ltd

Thank you so much for letting us know and indeed the neighbour for keeping an eye. As an organisation, we will tighten up our monitoring system and ensure all staff observe good practice. We strive to work with you and the community to ensure our service users receive the best support.

I have been a client of CRC Care for the last two years. The management and staff are excellent and look after my needs and requirements on a daily basis. They are professional, understanding and flexible which makes my life easier, yet still allows me a degree of independence. I am so glad I chose
CRC as my care provider and cannot recommend them highly enough.

Appalling service. The lack of training given to carers affects the service they provide. I have personally, with my own eyes watched a lack of empathy given to clients and utter neglect for their welfare. An appalling company, avoid.

Reply from Catherine Longwe, Manager at CRC Care Ltd

Thank you for posting a review and we are terribly sorry to hear that your experience with CRC Care Ltd was not up to standards. It was an uncommon incidence and the first time that our team have been seen to lack empathy. I can assure you that this is not the norm as can be evidenced in our Care Inspectorate reports. Considering that we don't have a record of any formal complaints made by yourself, we would like the opportunity to investigate your feedback further if possible. Please feel free to contact us at manager@crccare.co.uk or call our team at 0141 251 0138. We will work with you to resolve this issue as quickly as possible.

Since my elderly father was discharged from hospital, CRC Care have been providing care at home and I have been very satisfied with their service.
The manager, staff member and their team are kind and hard working. Knowing that they will call on my father when required has been very helpful indeed.

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 4.348 for CRC Care Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (9 Excellents x 5) + (13 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 23 Ratings = 4.348

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for CRC Care Ltd is based on 4 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.25 = 4.25

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