Testimonials

 

A small selections of Testimonials received by Annie’s Healthcare Services CIC:

I would just like to thank all your staff that were involved in my mums’ care over the last couple of years.  She couldn’t have asked for better help from everyone of you.  You’ve all been so kind and patient with her even though she can be quite difficult at times.  Once again, thank you all so much I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend your agency for the care you give to the elderly.

June 2021

I cannot speak too highly of the care which Annie’s gave both my father in his last couple of years, and after he died in 2011, to my mother, allowing her to stay at home until she died in December 2018. As an only child and Mum and Dad’s only relative able to help, living nearly 300 miles away, I knew I could rely on them, not only for routine care but for all aspects of their wellbeing including times when Mum or Dad were in hospital as well as when they were at home. Zainab and Lesley were pro-active in dealing with GPs and hospitals, and advising me on all sorts of matters, and I knew I could trust them to check on things regularly, deal with any crisis, and keep me informed and involve me in decisions. Mum’s life was longer by several years, and happier, because of their care and watchfulness and expertise, for which I will always be grateful. They very much live up to the idea of caring for the whole person, and many of the carers employed by the firm have shown immense dedication, cheerfulness and patience and made Mum’s last years so much better than they would otherwise have been, not least in terms of providing company and simple human warmth.
