Testimonials

Your experiences matter to us. Hear directly from our valued clients and carers.

The care and support training at Network Care and Support is outstanding. What I appreciate most is the focus on continuous learning and professional development. The training programs are regularly updated with the latest best practices and innovations in care. This commitment to excellence ensures that we are always equipped to provide the best possible support to our clients.

I have been RN’s allocated social worker since 28th April 2023 and have been working alongside Lorraine and the carers.. Lorraine and the staff have been excellent in meeting the needs of RN and it is evident that RN has made a great rapport with those who are directly involved in his care. The continuation of regular carers helps RN to build these relationships and because of this, Network Care and Support have supported him with both his physical and mental wellbeing. Evidently, if RN had an agency involved in his care that was not providing the regular care that he needs, or without the continuity of familiar faces, I feel that he would not have made the progression he has done.  RN has disclosed concerns in the past with his current mental state, which was safeguarded appropriately and protected within confidentiality guidelines. As such, Lorraine has supported RN with seeking medical guidance and these concerns have been minimised.  I would highly recommend this agency to other individuals in the future.

Thank you so much for all the wonderful care you gave to Kate over the last few months. It made all the difference to us all as a family to see her so well taken care of in such a lovely way.

My service from Network over the last few years work has been fantastic for me. In particular I would like Bailey England and Kelly Gingell to be acknowledge alongside Lauren Briton who always greeted me with kindness with a unique understanding of PTSD and my circumstances The care and work that goes on behind the scenes to insure my symptoms are not exaggerated must be acknowledge, Also I would like to thank you sincerely and if it is acceptable to you . I would like to send some goodies just to show kindness and boost the moral.

Kind thoughts always

I know I have made the right decision to join Network Care and Support. I'm really enjoying every minute of it.

Cath

I would like to say a great big thank you, to you and all your carers that looked after my husband. They were amazing. I've never met such kind, thoughtful, understanding and lovely people like your carers. I'll never be able to thank them enough for their kindness and consideration not just for my husband but for me as well. They made what was happening easier to bear. l'll never forget you all.
