Care company gets the seal of approval

- Abigail Kellett

HOME INSTEAD Senior Care Calderdale has won an award for being one of the Top 20 home care providers in Yorkshire and the Humber. There are 753 home care providers in the region and this is the second time they have won this award.

The award is based on the home care provider’s reviews from the people they care for, plus their friends and relatives. homecare.co.uk is a reviews site, that lists all registered UK home care providers, which helps people search for the right home care provider.

Munaf Patel, director of Home Instead Senior Care Calderdale, said: “We always welcome open and honest feedback from our clients and their families, so to win an award for positive testimonia­ls means a great deal to us.

“Throughout the pandemic, it’s never been more crucial to make sure that older people are safe and happy at home. Our caregivers have continued to go above and beyond in these challengin­g times, so we’re thrilled to see that our care is being recognised.”

Munaf continued, “You can’t be a caregiver without having an empathetic nature and passion for the role, not to mention a genuine desire to make a positive difference in the community.”

Amanda Hopkins, reviews manager of homecare.co.uk, said: “High quality home care is crucial as it enables people to stay living in their own homes and keep their independen­ce, with their home care worker often becoming their friend and companion as well as their lifeline to the outside world.

“During the pandemic, their contributi­on has been invaluable as many vulnerable and elderly people have been forced to self-isolate and to some of these, care workers have been their only link with the rest of society.

“They have also been able to bring people living at home, food and the medication they desperatel­y need.”

“We’re thrilled to see that our care is being recognised” Munaf Patel
