On arriving for a visit I found the house clean and tidy. During the day I noticed my mother-in-law's needs were all catered for with due care and respect. Living a distance away we do regular video calls and can log in to read the carer's notes on a daily basis which is very helpful and reassuring
that Mum is being looked after. The carers also arrange and attend appointments for Mum which gives us peace of mind owing to the distance we live apart. We are so grateful for the excellent service that is provided, which enables Mum to stay in the familiar surroundings of her own home where she has resided in for the last 68 years.

Thank you P D for your kind words. It's our pleasure to provide live-in care and enable your mother-in-law to remain in her own home.

We highly recommend King Homecare as a care company and we have had the best experience with them.
From the time King Homecare took over the care of my father, we had an amazing personal and professional service.
The director and her care team gave excellent care to my father, and had an extremely
good rapport with him, especially with his slight dementia which would be challenging at times.
As we live quite a distance away from my father, it was very reassuring to know that King Homecare were looking after his needs.
They were very flexible in the care they gave him and were also flexible on days and times to fit him in accordingly to his needs.
We had extremely good communication with the care company and they were very helpful throughout my father’s care.


Thank you King Homecare, and your wonderful team.

My mother had nothing but good things to say about the agency she was using. It started with just housework and then followed on with personal care. I felt the communication between myself and the agency was excellent, nothing was too much trouble for them and because we didn’t live close this was invaluable
to us. I would recommend this agency to anyone looking for a package.

The carer was very diligent in her details for Mum's care plan, spending time with Mum to make sure she could provide the right level of care. It came across that the carer cares deeply for the work she does. Although she only spent a few visits with Mum before Mum sadly passed, we were very touched
that the carer took time out to attend Mum's funeral. I would recommend King Homecare

Having to find carers to help support our cherished family members has to be one of the most challenging things we have to do when our parents become less independent and in need of care. As a nurse myself I know the standards I would expect and was nervous of any carers looking after my dad. King Homecare
reassured me from the outset and throughout Dad's final months of life, they were very supportive and caring. He always spoke highly of them and looked forward to the visits. They were flexible and responsive to his needs. I could recommend King Homecare.

Thank you so your kind words, it was an absolute pleasure looking after dad - he is sorely missed by all. Thanks, Paula.

King Homecare provided excellent and compassionate care for my elderly friend.
The staff are highly professional and are able to help with all aspects of daily care.
They are extremely reliable and look after their clients as if they were family.
I can not recommend them highly enough, I would definitely
recommend them to anyone looking for high quality care for a loved one.

King Homecare have been very supportive to me and my late husband in his last months. The carers were also courteous and caring, they have continued to visit me following the sad loss of my husband and I have found it helpful with managing my grief. Good time keeping and respectfulness at all times.
Would highly recommend this agency.

I’m an ex-nurse and I thought I’d never find someone special to help support my newly widowed mother - but I have!
It is early days and at the moment it’s about companionship and back-up to me but I’m delighted to say that professional and caring social and physical stimulation from you three days
a week is certainly making for one very contented mother. And that allows me to worry less, feel nearly guilt-free and, best of all, live my own life. Thank you so much King Homecare!

My wife first met the Director some years ago and when we learned that she had established her own care agency we did not hesitate to engage her to provide weekly care to meet my wife's needs. She has a very good ability to listen and understand our situation and to give us guidance into the way in
which care can best be deployed. She has a warm and compassionate disposition and extensive experience in managing care for people with loss of memory and cognitive skills.

King Homeare provided immediately much-needed care at very short notice.
Thereafter the carer arrived at the appointed time every time.
Both carers gained my poor wife's trust very quickly, lifting a great load from my shoulders.
They guided me well on how to try to deal with my wife's deteriorating
dementia.
They gave valuable help when I was faced with difficult decisions.
When a move to a care home became necessary the manager helped both my son and me to make contact with a recommended care home, suggesting the initial arrangements and undertaking the actual move when I could not.
In difficult times for me, after 55 years of marriage, she has continued her support when possible even though our care contract ended some time ago.

I am so fortunate to have found such an incredible agency to give me the courage, support and help for me to remain independent in my own home. The care I have received is exceptional and without this support, I would not have survived. During lockdown knowing I had two daily calls made the days worth
living. I have my meals cooked and I don't have to worry about medication. I am not lonely, we go for drives, and go to lovely places which stimulate my memories and make my day.

From the onset, the level of care, commitment and high standards have been exceptional. Initially reluctant to accept help, my mother has blossomed and now eagerly awaits their daily visits. Cheerful, friendly and engaging, they treat Mum with the utmost kindness and respect. They support and encourage,
are proactive, show sensitivity when needed and work extremely hard to help maintain her independence and dignity. I have been astounded at how quickly they have gained the trust and established a good rapport. Communication is open and accessible to the online portal is invaluable, as enables us to monitor daily visits, medication, eating patterns and well-being. Management is always helpful and willing to discuss any concerns, and it is clearly obvious that they have a great deal of experience within the care sector. The support received as a family, particularly during Covid, has been invaluable and knowing Mum is safe and content whilst in their care has been a Godsend. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend King Homecare.

King Homecare has been outstanding since we were first introduced to them to care for my Mum who has Alzheimer's with Dementia, and to help my Dad as her primary carer. The support from the very beginning was tremendous, and the care provided could not have been better. Needs and areas to support were
quickly identified, and a brilliant and successful effort was made to accommodate this significant change in my parents' lives. The communication was first class, and gave me and my sister great comfort to know that Mum and Dad were being helped; the activities undertaken with Mum were sensitive, appropriate and wonderful to hear of, particularly singing hymns, and talking about their lives. As it became clear that more permanent care was needed, the advice and support we received were superb, selfless and so caring. Throughout the care given was, without doubt, more than we could have hoped for.

After having a major operation, I called upon King Homecare who were able to support me following my hospital discharge. They have been very kind, caring and have acted on my every wish. Knowing there is someone at the end of the phone, reduced my anxiety and allowed me to get back into my routine.

We cannot praise King Homecare highly enough. At present, Mum just has a visit for companionship, she has short term memory loss and feels comfortable with the patience, understanding and support she receives from her carer. She looks forward to the visits and really enjoys the company. As a family,
not living or working locally and therefore not always on hand for Mum’s needs, it’s such a relief to know she is in safe hands when she goes out. And it’s lovely to receive the Daily Log Notes. It’s so good to know that there is a wealth of knowledge and experience in the care sector that would be available, if we should need it in the future, from King Homecare staff. We would definitely recommend them.

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for King Homecare is based on 13 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 5
