What our Care Assistants and Clients say about us

"Absolutely love my job, doesn’t feel like I’m going to work. Its great having the time to chat to the clients."

"I can't praise Lisa enough. I was in a horrible place yesterday not wanting to be here anymore. Everything just got on top of me and talking to Lisa helped so much.

I'd like to thank you for having staff that will listen and not judge.

I've never worked for a company that they look after the individual and its so nice knowing I can ring the office and just talk to someone. 

That's all down to you and Nick for looking after your staff.

Thank you again."

" Very understanding and informative and made her feel like a human."
